“Sweating to the Oldies” workout legend Richard Simmons has remained reclusive in his home for the past 5 years and has tax liens on his business and property for $24,000.  The IRS claims that Simmons owes money for years of back taxes between 2007-2015.

Simmons disappearance concerned his friends enough to contact the LAPD to perform a welfare check.  In 2013, the police did make contact with Simmons who said he felt the need to take a break from public life.  His status was such a mystery to some that there was a podcast series called, “Missing Richard Simmons” about his whereabouts.
