Son of the legendary Hollywood star, Clark Gable, John was born into A-List celebrity status.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the fact that his father passed away even before he was born, there was still an intense focus on his life. His mom and other relatives tried to shield him from the spotlight as best as they could and he has gone on to record successes as an actor and a racing car driver.<\/p>\n<p>He has however struggled with drug issues, as well as fractured relations with his kids. John Clark Gable continues to move on in his life and there is no arguing the fact that he has done his best, given his peculiar circumstances.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-box su-box-style-bubbles\" id=\"\" style=\"border-color:#ad1e12;border-radius:3px\"><div class=\"su-box-title\" style=\"background-color:#e05145;color:#FFFFFF;border-top-left-radius:1px;border-top-right-radius:1px\">Profile Summary of John Clark Gable<\/div><div class=\"su-box-content su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"border-bottom-left-radius:1px;border-bottom-right-radius:1px\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Full name:<\/strong> John Clark Gable<\/li>\n<li><strong>Date of birth:<\/strong> 20th of March 1961<\/li>\n<li><strong>Age:<\/strong> 63<\/li>\n<li><strong>Birthplace:<\/strong> Los Angeles, California<\/li>\n<li><strong>Father:<\/strong> Clark Gable<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mother:<\/strong> Kay Spreckels<\/li>\n<li><strong>Occupation:<\/strong> Actor and Professional Racer<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spouse:<\/strong> Debra Hartsell (2020 &#8211; ), Tracy Yarro (1985 &#8211; 1990), and Alexandria Remlin (1999 &#8211; 2002)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Children:<\/strong> Two including James Clark Gable III (d. 2019) and Kayley Gable<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>John Clark Gable Was Born Four Months After His Father, Clark Gable, Died<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Some children never got to know their father because he bailed out on the family. For some others, it is as a result of something tragic like death and John Clark Gable belongs to this latter category. He was born on the 20th day of March 1961, about four months after his dad died.<\/p>\n<p>The legendary Clark Gable had been eagerly awaiting the birth of his son and had even made known his plans to take an extended time off work in order to be there for the infant. That plan never got to materialize though as he was stricken with a heart attack in late 1960.<\/p>\n<p>He spent most part of November in the Hollywood Presbyterian Hospital and the hope was that he would recover. He however passed on the 17th day of November 1960 which means John Clark Gable never got to meet his dad in real life. He would later grow up to reveal that it felt strange having a father he never knew. He however surmised that he somewhat knew his dad from watching his movies, reading books about him, and listening to his mother\u2019s stories.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>His Mother Was Actress Kay Spreckels<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_136835\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-136835\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-136835 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/10\/John-Clark-Gable-5.jpg\" alt=\"John Clark Gable\" width=\"696\" height=\"484\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/10\/John-Clark-Gable-5.jpg 696w, https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/10\/John-Clark-Gable-5-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-136835\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">An infant John and his mom on a magazine cover in April 1961 <a href=\"https:\/\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/59\/bc\/18\/59bc18529f48d217600f2bbae7d88c94.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Image Source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Having lost his father even before he was born, John Clark Gable was mostly raised by his mother, Kay Spreckles.

The young boy rarely emerged during his youth due to fears that he may be a target of kidnapping as a result of his heritage.

Buoyed by his love for racing, he participated in his first truck race at the 1983 Barstow Classic and finished in a good position. He went on to perform in several other races and by the next year of 1984, won the SCORE rookie of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Even though Gable\u2019s mother tried to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/archives\/la-xpm-2000-jun-02-sp-36750-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dissuade him<\/a> from racing, due to fears for his safety, he nevertheless continued with it as it was a way to bond with his late father. Gable is now a professional racer and has competed against some of the greatest off-road drivers in the world, including former Indy greats, Parnelli Jones and Roger Mears.<\/p>\n<p>He has taken part in several off-road motocrosses and off-road truck races and has won several titles, including the <a href=\"https:\/\/davidnyoung.wixsite.com\/gable\/blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lucas Oil regional competition<\/a> in 2014, and the vintage trucks division at NORRA Baja 100 in 2014.

The movie revolves around three loafers who turn to robbery and Gable played one of the robbers named John T. Cole. <em>Bad Jim<\/em> received mostly mixed reviews but that has not stopped Gable from further exploring his movie career. He portrayed an army officer in the 1994 TV movie, <em>A Burning Passion: The Margaret Mitchell Story<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>He also played the role of Costello in the Italian mafia movie, <em>Sunset at Dawn<\/em>, and Sheriff Herrera in the 2012 sci-fi movie, <em>Aliens from Uranus<\/em>. This is certainly a decent acting career but John Clark Gable is not as successful as his father. The senior Clark Gable rose from an ordinary extra to become the leading man in Hollywood in the 30s, 40s, and 50s.<\/p>\n<p>He starred opposite some of the most popular actresses of his time and appeared in movies such as <em>Gone with the Wind, Manhattan Melodrama, San Francisco, Boom Town, <\/em>and<em> Test Pilot. <\/em>He was also the lead in the 1934 romantic comedy, <em>It Happened One Night<\/em>, which fetched him the Academy Award for best actor.<\/p>\n<p>Clark Gable is now hailed as the King of Hollywood and has been ranked one of the greatest male movie stars of classic American cinema by the American Film Institute. Going by the movies featured in and the awards won, John Clark Gable clearly still has a long way to go before he can become as successful as his late father. Even their net worth is another pointer. At the time he died, Clark Gable was worth as much as $100 million while his son has only been able to achieve a net worth of $5 million.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>John Clark Gable\u2019s First Marriage to Hairdresser, Tracy Yarro, Ended as a Result of Drug Abuse<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_136831\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-136831\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-136831 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/10\/John-Clark-Gable-3.jpg\" alt=\"John Clark Gable\" width=\"696\" height=\"491\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/10\/John-Clark-Gable-3.jpg 696w, https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2021\/10\/John-Clark-Gable-3-300x212.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-136831\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">John and Tracy in 1987<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>John Clark Gable has been married a total of three times in his life and his first marriage was to a hairdresser known as Tracy Yarro.

The couple later divorced in 1990 over irreconcilable differences. Yarro would come out years down the line to reveal that their split was due to drug abuse. According to her, John and other members of his family abused drugs and he had to enter rehab to seek help.<\/p>\n<p>Gable never publicly responded to these allegations but it seems there is some truth in his first wife\u2019s allegations. A 2006 copy of the Globe tabloid had a picture of him heading off to rehab with what appears to be several needle marks on his arm. A former girlfriend of his named Christiane Lange also died of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-2128700\/Christiane-Candice-Lange-Clark-Gable-Jrs-girlfriend-dead-Malibu.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">apparent drug overdose<\/a> in the year 2012.

The marriage lasted for four years during which the couple made some red carpet appearances. Gable later filed for divorce in January 2002 and cited irreconcilable differences as the reason.
