While atttending the Fox Summer Los Angeles TCA All-Star party, the former co-host of “The View” told reporters that:
“I’ll be paying this party off until I’m 90. Truly, I’m going as far as I can without feeling for bankruptcy. I wanted to give him like the greatest party ever because he’s been the most wonderful human being, not only with me but with everyone he knows.”
DONNIE’S EMOTIONAL SIDE: BROTHERS LOVE
Donnie has indeed been a wonderful person, as a lot of other people acknowledged while sending him birthday wishes on social media, including his brother, who for the umpteenth time, credited the NKOB bandmate for his success.
