What 'The Man With The Golden Voice' Looks Like Today

There are few things better than a good redemption story. Just look at the story of Ted Williams, who became known as The Man with the Golden Voice, which gripped the whole country back in 2011. Williams was standing on a street corner in Columbus, Ohio, when a reporter from the Columbus Dispatch took a video of the once professional voiceover man doing his radio voice.
The video went viral, and it led to Williams getting tons of offers for TV appearances and voiceover gigs. He made amends with family members and got a home. But it wasn't the end of his troubles. The Man with the Golden Voice has experienced numerous ups and downs, and here's what he looks like today.

Great story . God Bless him and keep him clean.

[@rhondahatfield4021]

10 years have passed so quickly. Do I remember seeing him myself on that exit ramp? I think I did. Unbelievable turn around!!

[@audrayoung7102]

Mr. Williams, as a woman who's had a few similar issues, keep your spirits high and keep doing good EVERYDAY! You, Sir are an inspiration to so many people! Best wishes ALWAYS!!

[@terrigasior1920]

God bless you, Ted Williams. Give all of your cares to the Lord and He will continue to give you the strength to win your battles. You have such a good heart, sir.

[@lisascott2449]

This man was taking advantage of in many ways. He is definitely a teacher in many ways as well. As I did many years ago.......I sincerely wish him well.

[@patriciaegan7244]

I remember him and have wondered about how things went after he was thrust into the “lime” light and then abandoned by media hype. I’m happy to see he’s here,

[@mscampbell1242]

Great story and interview!! I remember when he first went viral!! Stay strong Ted!!

[@1suitcasesal]

He's a very cool dude. Who wants to hear about someone who has a perfect life? We all struggle in different ways. Who can't relate to at least some part of this in some way? Good Luck Ted!!!

[@mamamia5556]

Considering all, I could only wish him All the Best 👍👍👍

[@youareanazingtemunoz9965]

Thanks for sharing your videos with us. He is a good example of survival. I love this mans voice and him as a person

[@kennethrussell1158]

He looks a little bit like Sammy Davis Jr.

[@elainebrown8136]

Why is he homeless again. This man has been through a lot. I feel sorry for his family. What a roller coaster life.

[@marnyquebec7374]

He makes his own choices. Don't feel.sorry for him he has had help and knows how to stay clean. He chooses his life styles

[@getlauriekor]

@@marnyquebec7374 why not have compassion ? Your attitude is exactly why no real help is available to the homeless or addicted unless you’re rich.

[@TheyStoleMyHandleAgain]

He frequently makes poor choices; pray for him---he needs stability in his life.

[@xmisterpilgrimx4869]

@@TheyStoleMyHandleAgain Can you provide some detail about how his frequent poor choices have contributed to his more recent problems? Like, things in the last couple of years?

[@nicoles8176]

I am so happy for him and hope he is in a better place now.

[@Pass12380]

a man with a ❤ soul.

[@kathyescobedo461]

So sorry for him. His struggle seems real. God bless him, he is so talented❤️

[@Moodymsmo30]

So glad he is doing better

[@sherrykirk7248]

God Bless Ted !!!!!!! He is such a good human being !!!!!!!!

[@melsattitude8668]

Prayers he keeps on pushing forward. Don't stop trying.

[@cindyjohnson9811]

I wonder what happened to him also... I love his voice.. My late husband talked to him once... when he was working in Columbus.. he came home and said I talked to this man today with this amazing voice... then a few days later his was on the news...

[@cjsrescues]

Ted, you are an inspiration to us all. Thank you for sharing your honesty. Its heart warming and encouraging to those of us who have faced many obstacles in our lives. May God bless you and keep you safe.

[@fritzcat6198]

Very beautiful video. Thank you for posting.

[@liftedlegend710]

He looks so good and is doing so good I just ran Into him in my Kroger

[@StarzzyJJASD]

He reminds me off the rev Al sharpton

[@sundayweiss7658]

So wonderful

[@cammiedelgado7055]

God Bless you Sir

[@mikehaffner-vt4qd]

I met him 4 years ago and chatted with him for about 10 minutes. Such a very nice man.

[@phuongadams7820]

God Bless him.

[@Glenrsi]

Absolutely love him, please don't judge him as he has tried. Nobody is perfect, many of us try. And that, good for you.

[@williamckama8470]

He looks great still. Awesome

[@StarzzyJJASD]

I wouldn’t say great but a lot better than when he was living on the street

[@jennyanimal9046]

I love heart warming stories. Praise Jesus!😇🙏🏻🙏🏽🙏🏿

[@regalegos1221]

What a frickin roller-coaster ride!!

[@erichuggins09]

The struggle is REAL.

[@shellylavigne5913]

Addiction IS as addiction DOES...

[@barbarastewart6005]

I hope he keeps doing well. He is a very kind person except also he should share with his children.

[@sharoncrist7320]

It is sure good to see how he is doing.

[@doralane9037]

It's heartbreaking, when you're dealing with a addict,God bless him

[@monicahines2238]

Great!

[@snowwhite7571]

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 I remember him!!!! I really want the best for him!! Please need to know they are worthy of having a good life!! Drugs and alcohol are the evil to cover the issues in our lives. The only problem is there always there until you are honest and talk about your problems, then you can overcome them!

[@terryhoffman2760]

He has a God given talent. Needs supportive people around him. Shame is there are those who will take advantage of his weaknesses . And he needs to have strength and want to change.

[@aminakishk6571]

What an unusual man....but he has good in him....

[@Super165i]

Wow to think it’s been 10years

[@laqwetasweat6828]

God Bless him

[@carlwoolsey6927]

This was at leastv4 yrs ago. There is tons of talent in the world. The problem is? I'll just leave it at that.

[@cat-lw6kq]

This guy was in the big time and blew it.

[@xmisterpilgrimx4869]

How so? Can you provide some detail about how he blew it?

[@StarzzyJJASD]

@@xmisterpilgrimx4869 because he basically is staying with a freind , he was givin a golden opportunity with so many lucrative contracts I’m sure he was making very good money and all the tv appearances, what he needed was someone to actually help him with his drinking problems and give him support where was the so called social workers there a complete joke only there for a pay check

[@judychandler8485]

Addiction is a horrible disease ..Some people never recover ..He's a miracle ..one day at a time.

[@roybruce9541]

Some of the Toughest and Strongest people in history have also been put through some of the most difficult times as these are the greatest tests of character and personal integrity.

[@davidchang7500]

He has a familiar face & voice of Obama, so can double Obama in any talk show!!! How about trying Ted Talk, William?

[@cdcotr]

I thought he was working in radio on a regular job? So why is he homeless again?

[@user-jz8kf5sd2o]

No, he is doing well and yes you are responsible for you ❤

[@nicolemelnyk152]

Ah man poor guy !

[@chichiudaku1805]

Bad management is why he keeps getting rock bottom.

[@1940limited]

ed Williams? Never heard of him. What did he do with all his money?

[@ollaa3050]

I have wasted my time listening to the commentator instead of the man with the golden voice..Review this video please.

[@suzannebunbury2961]

Exactly.

[@coffeerose55]

Hang in there...

[@Shadow_vr768]

Just seen this dude in the gas station in Columbus Ohio on the west side and he’s definitely not doing good anymore…. Very very sad.

[@StarzzyJJASD]

Why not help him

[@silentnight6682]

No such thing as having the face for T V. Personality is everything and he scrubs up really well anyhow. His mum should be a comedian. But yeah, he needs to be more responsible. Likeable chap.

[@wonder01lewis25]

It is the hardest thing that a person can do and that's STOP TAKING DRUGS.If the pressures was not there to STOP THEM it would be a lot better?

[@wonder01lewis25]

, Either stop them or do them.Its up to you at the end of the Day. Love you Ted Williams.

[@StarzzyJJASD]

Where was all his 9 children when he was living on the streets ?

[@valleythaboi7490]

How do I reach Ted

[@tinaplourde2]

Second 😇

[@flowergirl6581]

Its life sad rite

[@paul2019monte]

Too bad he didn't connect with his mother when he had all that money I'm sure she would have helped him make better choices than whoever he had around him.

[@esse6449]

A weird person. Doesnt convince me. 👎

Keep seeking and trust GOD/Christ, Ted. He's the Way up and out❗

[@victoriacoleman2820]

He had all that money and he went and got heroin you should have went and got him a car a place to live and look out for his mother that's crazy that's why he fall back down because he didn't do right when the Lord bless you he bless you you supposed to do right with that money he let the devil got in him to go get some heroin that's crazy

[@xmisterpilgrimx4869]

Can you provide more detail about this?

[@terriemoreland8952]

PRESIDENT ??? I don't think so.

[@margaritareyes8575]

He looks like Obama but older.

[@power-tools]

he has a "golden voice" and you are digging with your voice not giving a chance to hear him...

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

Let's here the voice you goofballs. Ridiculous that you wouldn't include that in the first seconds

[@JayNC1971]

He looks like Obama.

[@sheliamccullough1626]

He do👀

[@richieanthony7094]

hold on mr Williams .pray

[@StarzzyJJASD]

No more like Al sharpton

[@lifeislove3427]

It's saddening to know he is homeless again , He is going around and around in circles and ending up right where he started. I feel he must be taken advantage off by people around him , including the one's who manages him .. . So he keep ending up F ' Ed Over and over and over and over.. Sad ..

[@Tunz909]

What I have not read about is if he is saved? He needs Jesus in his life. He's trying to do everything on his own. Will keep him in prayers.

[@StarzzyJJASD]

Please Jesus god a bunch off crap 💩

[@furryplantsandcoins9070]

He should run with TRUMP!!!

[@sunnybreeze8673]

AA & NA is the solution 🙏🙏🙏

[@Timbergal]

Why was such a huge deal made about him??? He is dull, boring and way overrated....go away

[@launabanauna8958]

Ohmahgawd, why so mean, and nasty? Did you forget to eat your Wheaties this morning?!

[@theresalam8]

He’s a fraud. Given so many chances that no homeless man das, he turned to be a fraud. I am not so naive about a drug addict. Sorry.

[@xmisterpilgrimx4869]

Can you provide some detail about how he has been a fraud since getting back on his feet? Like, stuff in the last 2 or 3 years?

[@theresalam8]

This was how many heard ago? I may have been careless calling him a fraud, but he again squandered away his opportunity and back to his way of drug and alcohol and back into the street. His addiction to his vices proofed to strong for him. This is what I have learned. You can do your research and proof me wrong. I don’t mind being wrong as this is so many years ago.

[@miguelperry5721]

Looks like OBAMA'S long lost brother
