Where were Perez Hilton’s family, children during his traumatic self-harm crisis?

Perez Hilton’s harrowing livestream video on Tuesday sparked an emergency response as the celebrity blogger was seen to be involved in alleged self-harm activity online.

According to initial reports, Hilton was completely alone inside the residence. When the traumatic crisis unfolded, his children and family were not present at that moment.

The sheriff’s office responded to his neighbourhood with multiple patrol vehicles and yellow tape, and deputies confirmed with family members that Hilton was alone inside his residence.

Later, new developments came to surface revealed by Hilton’s family, mentioning his children were inside his Miami home just before an unsettling livestreaming that ended with him hospitalized .

According to the family’s statement, “Just minutes before the public livestream incident, Perez's children, niece, and sister were inside the home. When it became clear that Perez was experiencing a severe mental health crisis and harming himself, they immediately fled to protect the children from witnessing any further trauma.”

“Our highest priority right now is helping the children begin to heal from what they experienced. An important part of that process is allowing them to safely return home and begin rebuilding a sense of security and normalcy."

The family thanked fans for their "compassion, understanding, and continued prayers,” the statement reads.

On Thursday, an insider spilled the beans related to Hilton’s recent condition in the hospital.

“He’s a man in a lot of pain,” the source told Daily Mail. “I think right now he’s focused on the physical, but it’s all tied together. No one deserves the torment he’s going through.”

"No one deserves the torment he's going through," the confidant continued, who is a close friend to the Perez family for 20 years.
