Supporters have expressed worries for Scott Disick after new images surfaced showing his weight loss.
The 40-year-old has taken a step back from the public eye recently, as he continues to recover after a car accident in 2022.
He caused worry on social media when he was seen leaving Catch Steak restaurant in West Hollywood over the weekend, following a low-key dinner with friends.
He was seen looking very relaxed in a navy blue jacket and trousers, paired with a brown T-shirt, but fans on Reddit questioned whether he looked ‘gaunt’ in the photos.
Discussing the pictures on the Kardashians Reddit page, TheCarefreeButterfly declared: ‘Goodness! I feel like crying, can’t see him like this!’
Other-Swordfish9309 agreed: ‘Oh my god. This is horrifying. He looks haunted.’
Sunnyloveswalks shared: ‘Terrible. Sorry to see him like this.’
While many, many more urged the public not to speculate on Scott’s health, insisting that he will address comments himself when he is ready.
The star, who has children Mason, Penelope and Reign with Kourtney Kardashian, has been open about the challenges he faced following a serious crash.
He was involved in a collision in Calabasas in August, 2022, in which his Lamborghini flipped after he reportedly crashed into a stone mailbox.
During an episode of the Kardashians last October, the businessman explained that ‘everything in his life changed’ following the incident – as he had put on weight and wasn’t able to run around as much.
‘Since then, everything has changed in my life. I haven’t been able to run around. I’ve gained weight,’ he told a doctor, claiming that his sex life had also suffered.
Khloe Kardashian said that it was the ‘unhealthiest’ she had ever seen Scott, adding: ‘I think Scott needs a little pep talk because this is probably the unhealthiest I’ve seen him.
‘He’s barely mobile, and it’s all from his back, so that wouldn’t make anyone feel good.’
An insider has since claimed that his changing appearance is not due to health issues – but instead alleged that he turned to Ozempic to lose the weight he gained after the crash.
‘He is not ill and isn’t doing hardcore drugs,’ they told DailyMail.com. ‘Kourtney would never allow Scott to spend so much time with their kids if he was in the throes of an addiction.
‘Scott started taking Ozempic because he had serious issues with his weight gain. This time last year he saw himself as fat.
‘He had gained a lot of weight and couldn’t stand seeing himself in video footage that aired in the past couple of months. He would go to great lengths to cover it up.’
‘Scott wanted the easy way out of his dad bod,’ they continued. ‘But now it has clearly gone too far and, of course, the family is worried about him.’
Someone on the inside suggested that viewers might get more details in the upcoming season of the Kardashians, and commented that he has the strength to overcome this.
The drug has become increasingly popular among Hollywood celebrities who are trying to lose weight in recent months. However, it has been the subject of controversy because the injections are mainly intended for people with Type 2 diabetes.
Despite this, many well-known individuals have confirmed that they have used the injections, including Boy George, Dr. Terry Dubrow from Botched and Sharon Osbourne.
This has caused a shortage of supplies for those who actually need the medication, and medical professionals have issued strong warnings. health The team at Metro.co.uk has reached out to Scott’s representatives for a statement.
