Charlie Ritter: John Ritter's grandson? Any on-screen roles? How many nude photos does it take to get through the girl-craziness?

 

When Charlie Ritter appeared on my Instagram recommendations, I assumed that he was the grandson of John Ritter, whose Jack Tripper pretended to be gay on Three's Company in the 1970s: the first time many of us had ever heard the word.  .

Grandson Charlie is obviously straight.  There are a few guy-hugging photos, but usually he's hugging, kissing, cuddling with, and frolicking with girls! girls! girls!

Just one girl, duck-lipping or peace-signing.

Two girls, one for each arm.

Four girls, two on his arms, one grabbing his shoulders, and the other on her knees for some reason.

When he goes to a museum, he photographs the statues of naked ladies.

Here he's just sitting in a restaurant.  Presumably being photographed by a girl, but none are visible...wait, there's one on the sidewalk outside. Even while sitting in a restaurant. You have to be within twenty feet of the Eternal Feminine at all times, don't you, Chuck Baby?

Come on, this is excessive, even for the Don Juan -- Casanova -- Arthur Fonzarelli of our generation.  How could you afford all the corsages?

At least he displays a nice physique, if you can find selfie shots, without the Girls! Girls! Girls!

You haven't seen most of the hugging, kissing, grabbing, pretending to strangle, duck-lipping, hand-holding, and boob-gazing, but I have, and I need a few cocks before going on to Charlie's acting career.

This might not be our Charlie, but I don't care.  I know where that cock has been.  Repeatedly.

More after the break

Charlie grew up in Pittsfield, New York, a suburb of Rochester (upstate, on Lake Ontario).  As a senior at Sutherland High, he starred in Cole Porter's Anything Goes as Moonface Martin, a bumbling gangster who sings the showstopper duet  "Friendship." with platonic pal Reno Sweeney:

If you're ever down a well, ring my bell
If you ever catch on fire, send a wire
If you're ever in a mill and get sawed in half, I won't laugh.
When other friendships have been forgot, ours will still be hot.

Moonface Martin is often played by a gay man: Rip Taylor, Joel Grey, Hugh Sachs, Robert Lindsay (left)

Charlie graduated from Sutherland High in June 2025; he posts graduation photos hugging three different girls, then two at once, and then...hey, a boy named Lucas, seen her pretending that a popsicle is a cock.

But Lucas fills his Instagram with girl-huggin pics, too.  He's just gay-teasing.

Today Charlie is studying drama at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles.  It's Catholic, but it has a LGBT Studies minor.

During his first year at LMU,  he played the evil industrialist Caldwell B. Cladwell in Urinetown.  Jake Berman played the romantic lead, Bobby Strong.

What about Charlie's on-screen acting?

Ulp -- the only Charlie Ritter on the IMDB is a sound engineer who worked on Spider-Man 2 (2023).  Our Charlie was still in high school.   

Two amateur theatricals is not enough to profile a Girls! Girls! Girls! straight guy.  

But he's John Ritter's grandson, right?

John had four children. 

Jason (left) only has a daughter.

Tyler has one son, named Benjamin.

Noah has no children.

Carly has one son, but he's nine years old.

So not even a celebrity kid.

At least he has a nice physique.

I finally found a second photo where Charlie is hugging a guy, with no girls around.  His name is Cael, and his Instagram doesn't feature girl-hugging, so maybe he's gay.

Our boy has a gay pal?  Maybe a gay pal with benefits?  If he can find the time.
