Ryan ONeal on Barbara Walters 20 20

After over 20 years of being together, Ryan O'Neal and Farrah Fawcett are getting married amidst the actress' battle with anal cancer.


"I've asked her to marry me, again, and she's agreed," O'Neal, 68, tells Barbara Walters in an exclusive interview on ABC's 20/20, airing Friday, June 26.
 

62-year-old Fawcett - who was diagnosed with anal cancer in 2006 - is now “fighting for her life.”
 

But Ryan says they will wed “as soon as she can, say yes. ... Maybe we can just nod her head.”
 

He jokes that, for the ceremony, he'll dress "like a gigolo. You know? And a little thin mustache and slicked-back hair. I don't know. We have fun, we tease about that."
 

The couple has a son - 24-year-old Redmond O’Neal, who is currently in rehab following previous drug convictions.
