This just keeps getting sadder and sadder.
Heather Locklear was rushed to the hospital on Monday in an ambulance after family members feared she was overdosing, and the incident happened just hours after she was released from jail after being charged with two counts of battery. The actress is currently under medical care and recovering.
"Heather is currently stable. She didn’t want to leave her home [Monday] afternoon to get further treatment that she had agreed to get earlier in the day. Authorities were called when Heather said she had taken prescription medication and there [were] concerns she had taken more than she had been prescribed. The family is asking for privacy at this time," a source told Us Weekly.
The Melrose Place star has had a rough year. She was arrested for domestic violence in February, and placed on an involuntary psych hold earlier this month. She has been in and out of rehab for years, but hasn't been able to conquer her demons for any long stretch of time.
"This is a very serious situation. Heather refuses to get treatment. … Heather’s parents are asking [her boyfriend] Chris [Heisser] to stay away from Heather for a bit to give her some space to get the help she needs," the source added.
We hope this is her rock bottom and things only improve from here.
