So, what made this guy to kill himself? The biggest grief of his life was the sudden death of his mother Dana Plato. Plato committed suicide on May 8, 1999 with an overdose of prescription pills. Lambert was just of 14 when his mother took her own life at the age of 34. Lambert never got over his mother’s death.
His mother Plato married to his father Lanny Lambert in 1984 and gave birth to her only child Tyler Lambert in 1985. The couple split up in 1990 via divorce.
She was chosen for the role of Kimberly Drumond on Diff’rent Strokes in 1978. The management eliminated her from the cast after allegations of drugs and alcohol. In 1989, she started starring B-movies as she had nothing to do and she was struggling with her career. Vicodin and Vanadom were the main factors of her death.
