According to Janet Charlton, Owen Wilson’s suicide attempt was NOT due to the breakup with Kate Hudson. As she points out, it was Wilson who broke up with her.

But Wilson is apparently relieved to hear that many believe the break-up is the reason he tried to kill himself.

From Janet’s website:

“Hollywood insiders are buzzing that Owen’s problem is drugs, not women. They speculate that the drugs he’d been using made him depressed and drove him to attempt suicide. Why else would he have a high-powered lawyer at his bedside?”

I had an inkling this was what his suicide attempt was all about. Rumors have been buzzing that Owen loves his cocaine, and if I’m on the right track, he was up all night the night before and through the following morning, eventually breaking down around noon. Of course this is only a hunch, but my first thought when this all came about was that noon was an odd time to commit suicide. Not that there is any right or wrong time to do so, but it seems to make sense that he had been up all night long. And who knows, maybe he was up for more than one night..maybe it was two. It makes more sense than the break-up rumors. Whatever his reasoning, I still wish him the best and hopefully he is getting the help he needs.
