Perez Hilton was treated for an overdose following his self-harm livestream incident
✨ Key Highlights
- Perez Hilton was treated for an overdose immediately after livestreaming acts of self-harm on TikTok, according to a Miami-Dade County Sheriff's Office police report obtained by People.
- The incident occurred on Aug. 4, when Hilton's sister, Barbara Lavandeira, found him "covered in blood" in his bathroom and fled the home with his three children before Hilton, unclothed and bloodied, began banging on her vehicle's window.
- When officers arrived, Hilton had locked himself inside the home; after entering with family members, a fire rescue team treated him on scene for multiple lacerations and an overdose before he was hospitalized.
- Hilton has since been held under Florida's Baker Act, which permits authorities to involuntarily admit someone deemed at risk of serious harm to themselves or others.
- An Aug. 9 update from Hilton's family via his official website described him as in "serious but stable" condition after significant blood loss and additional injuries requiring upcoming surgery.
- Lavandeira told police her brother had been suicidal the week before the livestream and had already been taken for treatment, adding to Page Six that he had said he "felt empty, hopeless and like he was a burden."
