On the occasion of actor Owen Wilson’s birthday, we remember one of the difficult stages of his life that he had to face.
Owen Wilson and Kate Hudson’s romance lasted six months. However, it was one of the comedy star’s most life-altering relationships, as not only did he fall into depression after the breakup, but he also attempted suicide when he found out that Hudson had a new love.
The two met on the set of the film “Three are crowds” and began their relationship when they finished recording it. Some comment that the romance ended due to the ‘Zoolander’ protagonist’s constant nightlife, as well as the unbridled life he led due to his drug addiction.
The truth is that since the separation, the actor was no longer tied to another woman. He fell into a state of depression and used large doses of cocaine and heroin more frequently.
Owen Wilson’s suicide attempt
Shortly after, Kate Hudson was caught kissing Dax Shepard, which sparked Owen’s madness. As her brother revealed, she found the actor in the master bathroom, covered in blood.
The comedian cut his wrists and also overdosed. Doctors were able to save him, but he and his family decided not to speak publicly about what had happened.
“I respectfully ask the media to allow me to receive medical care and heal in private during this difficult time,” he said in a statement.
It must be remembered that on many occasions Owen Wilson had recognized that he became very sensitive and vulnerable each time he fell in love, so seeing the images of Kate Hudson’s new companion affected him terribly.
This is how, little by little, the American resumed his life, devoting himself to the sports that he was passionate about, such as tennis, swimming, surfing and others.
