“I was not welcomed to the cast at all,” White says. “They know what it was… I didn’t think anything of it being cast to be on ‘Family Matters’, because it was supposed to be a guest spot, one and done.”
In the clip, the actor also remembers his late co-star Michelle Thomas, who played his girlfriend on the show, and who died of stomach cancer at age 30 in 1998.
