It’s hard out there, no matter who you are! Barbara Streisand’s stepson, Jess Brolin (and brother of actor Josh), has been caught rummaging through public trash cans and is suspected to be homeless, even though his family is worth $500 million.

So what happened?

Jess was said to have received a six-figure trust fund when his biological mother, Jane Cameron Agee, passed away. But Jess since lost his apartment he was renting and the money seemed to disappear, leaving him to fend for himself on the streets of California.

As for Streisand and her husband James Brolin, a spokesman for the family admitted they’ve done everything in their power to help Jess.

“We have offered help and support and we continue to do so,’ the spokesman said. ‘We love him very much and only want what is best for him.”

Yes, of course – but I’m sure the release of Barbra’s 6th number 1 album in 6 decades (here) has helped to ease the pain.
