'DIFF'RENT STROKES' STAR Conrad Bain Dead at 89


Actor Conrad Bain -- who famously played father figure Phillip Drummond on "Diff'rent Strokes" -- has passed away. He was 89.

Bain family sources say, Bain died Monday night at a retirement home in Livermore, CA from natural causes.

We spoke with Bain's daughter Jennifer who tells us, "He was an amazing person. He was a lot like Mr. Drummond, but much more interesting in real life. He was an amazing father."

His three sons and one daughter survive Bain --who became a household name starring opposite Gary Coleman and Todd Bridges on the iconic 80s series --. He also has a surviving twin brother Bonar Bain.
