Perez Hilton’s family and team have issued a statement requesting privacy as he recovers from a recent self-harm incident, the message was posted on his website and acknowledged the outpouring of support from fans. “We can confirm that Perez is receiving medical care, and our family’s focus right now is on his well-being,” the statement said.

Concern for Children and Home Life

The statement also addressed the well-being of Hilton’s three children, who were in the house minutes before the incident — “Our highest priority right now is helping the children begin to heal from what they experienced,” it added. The family requested that the media, paparazzi, and the public respect their privacy by staying away from their home, “Please allow his children the privacy and space they need during this unimaginably difficult time,” the message said.

Timeline and Medical Care

According to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office, Hilton was moved from his home in Miami to a hospital after local law enforcement visited him following multiple calls from concerned viewers. His hospitalization came after a TikTok livestream reportedly showed him cutting himself while covered in blood; the video was later taken down and his account suspended.

Golden Artists Entertainment Co-CEOs Dante Rusciolelli and Rebekah Kochan, who are listed as Hilton’s managers, stated they were aware of the concerning content but had not yet been able to make direct contact with him. “Our primary concern is Perez’s health and well-being, as well as the well-being of his family [which includes his three children],” they said; “Until we have confirmed information, we will not speculate or comment further.”

The family said updates on Hilton’s condition will be shared via his website “when we have additional information we are able to share.” They also noted that Hilton was able to communicate with them following his hospitalization, which has given the family hope. The statement concluded with a request for ongoing support and compassion from fans.
