Celebrity columnist Perez Hilton’s (Real name: Mario Armando Lavandeira Jr.) life turned upside down last month when he cut himself with a knife multiple times in front of thousands during a TikTok livestream.
His sister, Barbara Lavandeira, found him bleeding and unconscious in the bathroom and called 911. But before that, she ensured that his kids, Mario, 13, Mia, 11, and Mayte, 8, were safe.
The children are now with their grandmother, Teresita Lavandeira, as Hilton undergoes a residential treatment program for his mental health and recovery after spending weeks in the hospital.
