Little House On The Prairie star's husband suicides


News has emerged that the husband of Sidney Greenbush, who shared the role with her identical twin sister Rachel as Carrie Ingalls in "Little House On The Prairie" from 1974 to 1982, has committed suicide.

Willian Rocky Foster was found behind his home with a gunshot wound to his head.

On May 3rd, Sidney had discussed a divorce with Foster. Two days later Foster called the former child star saying he would kill himself.

And he did.Right after he hung up.

Sidney called the Sheriff’s Department, but a family friend found Rocky lying by a corral behind their home with a gunshot wound to the head. Despite efforts to save him, he died at a nearby hospital.

Sidney married Foster, a veterinarian and horse breeder in 2000. The couple lived on a ranch in Visalia, CA.

Sidney has competed in women’s professional rodeo and has been the top-ranked barrel racer on the West Coast. A long-time animal lover, she has an associate’s degree in animal science. She also designs custom jewelry which she sells to her fans.

Rocky was a real cowboy and a neighbor said they were a totally down-to-earth couple.
