Perez Hilton will remain hospitalized under Florida’s Baker Act and will need surgery from his injuries.
TMZ reported:
Perez Hilton’s family is sharing a major update on his well-being after his dangerous acts on a live stream earlier this week.
His family told fans via his website that he’s still in a Florida hospital under the Baker Act, which allows for the temporary and involuntary detention of someone who is experiencing a severe mental health crisis.
They added, “His communication has been extremely limited and confined to immediate family, medical providers, and others directly involved in his care.” His family shared on Thursday they were able to make contact with him, which gave them “hope.”
The family described Perez’s condition as “serious but stable,” adding … “He experienced significant blood loss and sustained additional injuries that will require surgery in the coming days.”
They continued, “His treatment and recovery will be a long process. We are grateful that Perez was able to spend time with his mother and sister yesterday.”
