New York, Mar 25 - Dennis Hopper's divorce from wife Victoria has not only left him cash-strapped, but it's also taking a toll on his health.
According to new court documents obtained by TMZ.com, Hopper has become extremely ill from his battle with advanced prostate cancer, and now weighs only a little more than 100 pounds.
"It is doubtful that Mr. Hopper will ever recover sufficiently to be subject to a deposition," the New York Daily News quoted one of his doctors reportedly as saying in a declaration.
The 73-year-old actor's nasty divorce case, which began in January when he filed documents to end his 14-year marriage, has also left him nearly broke.
In the legal documents, Hopper has stated that he is only able to afford 5,000 dollars a month in spousal support to his estranged wife.
His CPA has revealed that the actor's liquid assets add up to 300,280 dollars, as well as another 10,900 dollars in his corporations.
"Hopper has basically lived on income derived from new acting services," the CPA reportedly wrote.
And owing to his condition, Hopper has reportedly been unable to work.
He is said to have earned only 57,000 dollars in residuals in 2009, and is expected to make the same amount in 2010.
However, Victoria doesn't believe the actor has financial woes, alleging the bulk of his net worth comes from art he created and sold.
Hopper counteracted the claim by explaining that his art earnings have barely been enough to survive on.
According to the statement, Hopper claims to have made 1,895,000 dollars from his art sales, but his expenses to create and store the work added up to 1,850,000 dollars, leaving him with only 45,000 dollars in net profits over the past nine years.
The actor has reportedly been living on a 450,000 dollars line of credit, with "no further borrowing possible." (ANI)
