Perez Hilton suffered multiple broken bones after falling on the night of his self-harm livestream earlier this month. The celebrity blogger, 48, is still recovering from his wounds in the hospital after he cut himself with a knife during an August 4 livestream on TikTok.And on Monday, his brother-in-law Tom, who is married to Hilton's sister, Barbara, revealed that his injuries are far more severe than initially thought during a new episode of The Perez Hilton Podcast with Chris Booker.Tom said that Hilton, whose real name is Mario Armando Lavandeira Jr, fell several times during the night of his livestream, resulting in broken bones. He added that doctors do not know yet what caused Hilton's 'mental break' and that he has not been able to see his three children since the incident. Aside from the broken bones, doctors also discovered other 'unrelated' issues requiring treatment, which stemmed from Hilton's battle with sepsis in March. Perez Hilton, 48, suffered multiple broken bones after falling on the night of his self-harm livestream earlier this monthHis sister Barbara, 42, discovered Hilton naked and covered in blood in the bathroom of the Miami home he shares with his mother Teresita Lavandeira, 72, and his three children.She ushered the children into her car and drove away as Hilton chased them into the street and banged on the windows, according to a police report.Hilton then locked himself inside the house and cut himself with a knife before first responders were able to coax him out and treat him for lacerations and an overdose. He was also treated for 'significant' blood loss and undisclosed injuries.After being asked about Hilton's current state of mind, Tom said he is 'lucid,' though he is unsure how much Hilton remembers from that night. He added that doctors have been focusing on treating his physical injuries for now.Hilton has also not seen his three children yet. His mom Teresita filed for temporary legal custody of Mario, 13, Mia, 11, and Mayte, eight, after the incident.'I think it's all things that need to be done with the advice of psychiatric help. I think it's a lot. It's a lot for the kids. It's a lot for him,' Tom said.Tom added that during Hilton's 'mental break' the blogger thought he was doing 'what's best for the children.''Obviously, since the incident, now that he's lucid, we've explained to him that type of thinking is absolutely not true. These kids adore him, and he's been a present father.'

She's always been somewhat of a motherly figure to them.'Hilton is not currently able to have electronics, but can call people from the hospital phone. Tom went on to share that the next step will be for Hilton to enter a facility focused on his 'mental recovery.' 'However long that takes ... is however long that takes. I don't think you're going to see him pop up in a few days,' he added. Last week, The Daily Mail exclusively revealed that Hilton will need 'psychiatric clearance' before he can see his three children again.A Miami court agreed this week that Teresita should have sweeping authority over their schooling, healthcare and 'all things necessary for the care of the children.'Hilton was hospitalized under Florida's Baker Act, which allows for the temporary involuntary detention of individuals in mental health crisis, and has since expired.The act's provisions will kick in when he's medically discharged from the hospital, giving doctors a 72-hour window to transfer him to a psychiatric facility and evaluate him. Hilton has also not seen his three children yet. His mom Teresita filed for temporary legal custody of Mario, 13, Mia, 11, and Mayte, eight, after the incident Tom added that being a 'single parent household' can be a 'challenge' for Hilton, but added that the kids 'adore him' and that 'he's been a present father.' He went on to say that Hilton's mother Teresita has been a 'huge presence' in the lives of the children Hilton could walk free when the clock runs down if they decide he's not a risk to himself or others.But that's a 'long shot' according to Mark Astor, a veteran Florida attorney specializing in Baker Act cases.'You don't just get to walk out of there after 72 hours,' Astor previously told the Daily Mail. There are three possibilities, according to Astor, a former prosecutor, defense attorney and partner at Astor Simovitch Law.'Number one, they could release him. Number two, they get him to agree to stay on a voluntary basis.''Or number three, they could file what's known as a petition for involuntary placement,' Astor explained.The latter would involve a Miami-Dade judge holding a hearing within five days to decide whether Hilton should remain locked up. The case would be confidential – with media barred from attending or hearing any of the details.
