Perez Hilton remains hospitalized nearly two weeks after a serious mental health crisis at his Miami home, with his family making clear that there is still no timetable for his return home or to work.
In a new update, Hilton's family said the 48-year-old internet personality continues receiving inpatient treatment from a team of medical and mental health professionals.
The update follows an emotional interview from Hilton's sister, Barbara Lavandeira, who previously said both his physical and mental recovery would require considerable time. She also said her brother currently has no access to a cellphone, social media or the internet while his care continues.
One part of Hilton's life is beginning to move again without him. His family says the team behind PerezHilton.com will resume publishing entertainment news this week while the site's founder remains focused on his health and recovery.
The family's latest official update says Hilton remains hospitalized following the Aug. 4 crisis. "At this time, Perez remains hospitalized and is receiving the medical care he needs," the family said. "His treatment is continuing in an inpatient setting under the care of a dedicated team of medical and mental health professionals."

Perez Hilton's website resumed operations on Monday, as the blogger remains hospitalized following a livestreamed self-harm incident earlier this month.
"At this time, Perez remains hospitalized and is receiving the medical care he needs," his family shared in a Sunday statement on PerezHilton.com. "His treatment is continuing in an inpatient setting under the care of a dedicated team of medical and mental health professionals."
"Perez built PerezHilton.com more than 20 years ago, and it has remained one of the most important parts of his life ever since. Starting this week, his team will begin publishing again, focusing on the day's biggest stories," the statement continued. "For now, Perez's health remains the priority as his team keeps the site active and moving forward."
Hilton, whose real name is Mario Lavandeira, was removed from his Miami-area home by law enforcement officers and taken to a local hospital on the evening of Tuesday, Aug. 4, after police received concerned calls about Hilton. Earlier that same evening, the blogger had hosted a TikTok livestream in which he appeared to repeatedly harm himself, winding up covered in blood in the process.
The TikTok livestream has since been removed from the site. On Aug. 5, the social media platform attributed the minutes it remained up to a "moderator error."

Amid backlash for supporting Perez Hilton in his mental health crisis, Jared Padalecki replied with just three words. The "Supernatural" actor drew criticism online after showing solidarity with the media personality. Padalecki has since clarified his intentions, explaining that the message was about empathy and concern for well-being.
Jared Padalecki is distancing himself from controversial gossip blogger Perez Hilton. According to Entertainment Weekly, the Walker actor reached out to Hilton over the weekend. The outreach came after Hilton was hospitalized on Tuesday, August 4, following an incident on a TikTok livestream where he appeared to injure himself.
Padalecki has spoken candidly in the past about his own mental health challenges, and he leaned on that experience while offering words of encouragement to Hilton on social media.
Padalecki took to X on Saturday, August 8, to write, "Hey PerezHilton. Just wanted to reach out and let you know that you're in my thoughts. This 'being human' is a strange thing. Exhilarating. Exhausting. Fast. Slow. Wonderful…. And… at times… awful. I hope you are trying as best as you can to be kind to yourself right now."
"Please surround yourself with the love and support that all humans deserve. This too shall pass. You got this," concluded the 44-year-old.
