John Aniston, Jennifer Aniston’s father, dead at 89
He was 89.
“I’ve never met somebody as attractive as you were. I’m very glad you entered the heavenly place gently and peacefully. and no less on 11/11! In a message posted on Instagram, Jennifer Aniston said, “You always had amazing timing.
That number now has much more significance for me going forward.
Beginning her greeting, the “Friends” actress referred to John Aniston as “sweet papa.”
Over the course of his lengthy career, the actor appeared in a number of TV shows, including approximately three thousand episodes of “Days of Our Lives.”
Aniston ended her caption with the words “I’ll love you to the end of time.” “Make sure to stop by.”
Aniston was given the name John Anastassakis in 1933 in the Greek island of Crete. His family moved to the US when he was 10 years old, changing their last name to Aniston.
Before joining the soap opera business, John Aniston appeared in an off-Broadway musical and served in the US Navy, according to Soap Opera Digest.
His major break came when he was chosen for the enduring soap opera “Love of Life,” followed by “Search for Tomorrow.”
He joined “Days of our Lives” in 1985 as “romantic villain” Victor Kiriakis, a crook with a passion for seducing the women of Salem, Illinois, but it wasn’t until then that he rose to fame.
Kirakis was a Greek native like Aniston, but he was far more evil: He was a thug who ran a prostitution enterprise nearby. In an effort to win back his older children, Kiriakis underwent a number of moral makeovers throughout the course of the series, switching between his law-breaking criminal identity and his devoted family man persona.
For a total of 37 years, Aniston made occasional appearances on the programmed.
During his time on operas, according to a 1986 Soap Opera Digest profile on Aniston, he established a restaurant in New York, divorced his first wife, Nancy Dow, wed his co-star Sherry Rooney, and moved to Los Angeles.
When John Aniston found out that his daughter wanted to go in the entertainment industry, he was horrified. In a 2019 interview with the Television Academy Foundation, Aniston said he learned his daughter had been calling his agency to solicit auditions while he was on “Search for Tomorrow.”
I warned her, “You don’t want to work in show business. Show business stinks, he claimed. Everyone who wants to be an actor should consider becoming someone else instead.
Because they shouldn’t have entered the entertainment industry in the first place if my advising them to stay out of it is going to keep them out.
Naturally, John Aniston’s daughter ignored his counsel, going on to become one of the most well-known actors in the world and feature in one of the most well-liked comedies of all time.
Jennifer is a natural talent, Aniston acknowledged to his daughter’s embarrassment in a 1990 interview with E! News alongside her, but he also reminded her that talent doesn’t always translate into a successful profession.
Aniston, whose own soap opera career lasted more than 50 years, was honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Emmy in June at the Daytime Emmy Awards.
His daughter presented a moving eulogy in his honour despite the fact that dad wasn’t there at the event.
She claimed that his almost 30-year commitment to “Days” brought him the admiration and love of his fellow performers, lasting friendships, and the joy of millions of fans all across the world.
“His career is the perfect definition of lifetime achievement,” someone once said.
