“Jackass” star Bam Margera has reportedly been hospitalized and placed on a ventilator after contracting pneumonia.
Sources told TMZ he was admitted earlier this week and tested positive for COVID-19 while in the hospital. He is currently in stable condition in the intensive care unit.
Bam, who has been diagnosed with bipolar disorders and has struggled with mental health issues and with addiction, has been in and out of rehab all year.
In August, he was granted a temporary healthcare guardian.
“It’s no secret that Bam has has struggled with mental health and addiction. You’ve watched Bam grow up and supported him through his ups and downs,” Bam’s family wrote at the time. “Although we love sharing our lives with you, some things need to be handled privately and treatment is one of them. Recovery is difficult and even more so under public scrutiny.”
We wish him the best and wish him a full recovery.
