Richard Simmons’ Longtime Housekeeper Teresa Reveles Reveals Details About His Death

Buy Me A Coffee

Hold onto your sweatbands, because the legend of leg warmers and jazz hands, Richard Simmons, has shuffled off this mortal coil, and his housekeeper of 35 years, Teresa Reveles, has some tales to tell. Buckle up for a journey that started in the 1980s and ended with a heavy heartโ€”and fists.

Letโ€™s rewind to the glory days of neon spandex and aerobics. Teresa sashayed into Richardโ€™s life in 1986 with a tiny suitcase and a big question mark over her future. Richard, being the ball of energy and fabulousness we all knew, took one look at her minimalist luggage and thought, “Is that all youโ€™ve got?” Teresa, ever the practical one, replied, โ€œHey, Iโ€™m on a trial run here. If you hate my cooking or my face, Iโ€™m outta here in two weeks.โ€ Richard, in his crystal-ball wisdom, declared, โ€œTeresa, darling, youโ€™re never leaving. Weโ€™re stuck like glue until the end.โ€

And wouldnโ€™t you know it? The man had a sixth sense.

Fast forward to the present, and Teresa is still reeling from discovering Richard in his final resting pose. โ€œHe looked peaceful,โ€ she reminisced, adding that his hands were clenched like heโ€™d just finished a killer set of push-ups. โ€œThatโ€™s how I knew it was a heart attack,โ€ she explained. โ€œMy hands did the same when I had one, and trust me, itโ€™s not from too many curls.โ€

Teresa also shed some light on why Richard, the human glitter ball, vanished from the spotlight in his later years. Picture this: Richard, usually bouncing around like a human pogo stick, suddenly couldnโ€™t exercise or teach his beloved classes. โ€œTeresa, my knees hurt!โ€ heโ€™d complain. A knee replacement sidelined him from all the jumping and jazzercising. The thought of not being his usual flamboyant self was unbearable. โ€œIf I canโ€™t be Richard,โ€ he declared, โ€œIโ€™m hanging up my headbands.โ€

And as if that wasnโ€™t enough, Richard, like many of us, wasnโ€™t thrilled with the aging process. โ€œHe thought he looked too old,โ€ Teresa revealed. โ€œBut honestly, he was still Richardโ€”maybe a few more wrinkles, a smidge less hair, but the same spirit. Okay, maybe not as slim, but whoโ€™s counting?โ€

So, letโ€™s all raise a glass of our finest green smoothie to Richard Simmons, the man who made sweating look glamorous and whose legacy will continue to sparkleโ€”fists clenched and all.
