This actor and his onscreen siblings, all real-life brothers, starred together in a popular show from the ’90s and have since followed various paths in the entertainment industry. Now adults, here’s an update on their lives and appearances today.

The three brothers gained fame as the stars of the sitcom “Brotherly Love.” The trio played siblings coping with life after the death of their father in the show that aired from 1995 until 1997.

Even though they are still active in the entertainment world since finding fame as kids, something peculiar about the oldest sibling has recently caught the attention of fans. But before we get to that, let’s have a look at their backgrounds.

The eldest brother started his acting career as a child in the early 1980s. He eventually gained fame with notable roles in “Blossom” and “Melissa & Joey.” Besides acting, he has also ventured into music, working as a singer-songwriter and record producer, while also hosting a game show and podcasting.

The middle brother is well-known for his role as Jack Hunter in “Boy Meets World” and his appearance in “Mrs. Doubtfire.” He also acted in “The Hot Chick” and had guest spots on shows like “CSI: Miami.” Like his older brother, he is also involved in music and podcasting.

Over the years, the actors have experienced significant physical changes, prompting reactions from online critics. Netizens on X have particularly focused on Joey, with many expressing confusion about his appearance, and some questioning whether he is bald or not.

Netizens’ Outlooks on Joey and What Are the Brothers Doing Now

One fan wrote“Wow, Joey Lawrence is unrecognizable!” while another remarked“[…] His face kinda scares me. That’s what too much plastic surgery will do for you.”

One person added“Joey Lawrence’s surgery has taken its toll.” “Joey Lawrences looks plastic [sic]!” exclaimed another. “Really, Joey? Omg,” commented one user. While some people claimed Joey looked different than before, others discussed his baldness.

An X user expressed confusion about Joey’s hair, asking“I don’t understand Joey Lawrence’s hair. Is he bald? Does he have a receding hairline, does he use a toupee, or does he have a full head of hair he cuts short? When he was younger, it was long and thick… confused.”

Someone else joked, “Joey Lawrence went bald before this dude was born.” “[..] Back in the day the man looked like a John Stamos starter kit and now Lawrence has no hair,” penned another. One person shared her encounter with the star writing“I saw Joey at Urban Outfitters. He was bald and very tan. I did no [sic] say ‘woah’ to him.”

Joey and his brothers have also encountered personal struggles. In 2017, the eldest sibling and his second wife, Chandie Yawn-Nelson, filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy after accumulating more than $355,000 in debt.

Their financial troubles led them to sell personal belongings online and in second-hand stores. The couple was $18,000 in the red monthly, and Joey, a father of three daughters, eventually filed for divorce in 2020 after being married to Chandie for 15 years.

He later remarried in 2022 to actress Samantha Cope. The pair exchanged their vows at the Temecula Creek Inn in Temecula, California, in from of friends and family.

But his third marriage ended in divorce after two years in August 2024. His ex-wife has reportedly sought sole custody of their 19-month-old daughter, Dylan.

Joey has continued to work in the entertainment industry, with recent roles in the 2023 films “Love by Design” and “Frankie Meets Jack,” co-starring his now ex-wife.

Meanwhile, the middle brother also went through a divorce in 2022 when “Dancing with the Stars” professional Cheryl Burke, his wife of two years, filed for separation.

She cited “irreconcilable differences,” and confirmed a prenuptial agreement was in place. He has since moved on and is now in a relationship with TLC’s Chilli.

His latest project includes a role in the 2022 film “Double Threat.”

The youngest sibling, Andrew, remains single and has never tied the knot but has expressed openness to finding love.

The 36-year-old filmmaker continues his work as a filmmaker and has also appeared in “Frankie Meets Jack” alongside Joey.

Despite the ups and downs in their personal and professional lives, the Lawrence brothers remain close, supporting each other as they navigate their unique paths in the public eye.
