These are not Happy Days for Joanie Cunningham actress Erin Moran.
Shes broke, living in an Indiana trailer park and looking haggard well beyond her 51 years, according to the National Enquirer.
Moran and husband Steve Fleischmann, 45, are reportedly living hand-to-mouth at the Berkshire Pointe Mobile Home Park in New Salisbury, Ind., where theyre said to be caring for his ailing mom.
Its a long fall for the actress, best known as Ron Howards wisecracking little sister on one of Americas most beloved sitcoms.
She appeared in 236 episodes of Happy Days between 1974 and 1984 before doing her short-lived spin-off Joanie Loves Chachi.
The couple lost their Southern California home to foreclosure in 2010.
Life hasnt been kind to Erin since the foreclosure of her home, a family friend said.
Despite these tough times, pals admire Morans dedication to her sick mother-in-law.
She and Steve moved in with his ailing mother at the trailer park a few weeks back. Erin is like an angel to her mother-in-law. She cooks and cleans for her and takes care of her personal hygiene, the family pal observed...
While Moran cares for her mother-in-law, Fleischmann reportedly brings home the bacon with a meager Walmart job...

I remember watching a TV shoe with Moran saying something that. It might have been one of those “Where are they now” shows.
According to IMDB she’s gotten some recent work. I think this is more of an opportunistic piece because her MIL is in a trailer, and she’s there to help. As far as her husband working at Walmart, if you’re just in town to help your Mom, why not grab any job you can?
It could be much worse
She could have been Chaz’s partner on Dancing with the Stars!
