Joey Lawrence became something of a teen heartthrob in the 1990s playing Joey Russo, brother to the eponymous character played by Mayim Bialik on "Blossom." Thanks to his newfound stardom, Lawrence was also able to pursue his first love, music, launching a singing career that has continued to this day. But along the way, he lost everything and had to rebuild his career.
Though he was a major star in the '90s, Lawrence's net worth took a dive after his show "Melissa & Joey" ended in 2015. Things became so bad for Lawrence and his wife, in fact, that they began selling their personal belongings online. They reported that they had less than $44,000 in assets while owing more than $406,000 to creditors when they filed for bankruptcy in 2017. This included everything from back taxes to credit card bills and unpaid rent and loans, not to mention extravagant purchases that were never paid off. At his worst, Lawrence had $8,000 in the bank and just $60 in cash.
Following his financial rebound, Lawrence and his wife separated, and in 2020 he filed to terminate spousal support during divorce proceedings. Their divorce was settled in 2022 after both parties reached a private settlement.
