Skateboarder Bam Margera ESCAPES REHAB to party and visit strip club, claims report

The 42-year-old TV personality fled the center on June 25, which was his second attempt in the same month

Bam Margera directly went partying after disappearing from a rehab center last month, according to a report. A TMZ video showed him having fun with a group of men while his family and cops were doing everything possible to locate him. In the same clip, he was seen appearing to be unconscious before coming back again.

The video was reportedly taken after the 42-year-old TV personality fled the center on June 25, which was his second attempt in the same month. On the same day, he also apparently checked into a sports bar in Florida's Pompano Beach and had gulped down a few alcoholic drinks.

Besides, a source told the news site that Margera then requested to be driven to a hospital as he reportedly got a wounded wrist. There he asked the person to take a photo of him on the hospital bed before heading to a strip club in Pompano Beach. But he apparently did not get involved with any dancers as he told them he had love for his estranged spouse, Nicole Boyd, and their son Phoenix.

The ‘Viva La Bam’ star’s expeditions did not stop there, though, as he then went to a friend’s house, where the footage was reportedly taken. Margera was eventually found on June 27 by police officers as well as a crisis intervention team before he was admitted to a new treatment facility. His parents were also present at the time, it has been said.

Meanwhile, another TMZ report said that the ‘Jackass: The Movie’ star has got a laywer for himself after he heard no word from Boyd and their four-year-old son. The tabloid reported, “Boyd has made no attempt to speak to him directly or return his phone calls, only speaking to his team about child support and custody regarding their son, Phoenix Wolf. Bam's new family law attorney will be working on hammering out a custody agreement with Nikki's lawyer, David Glass, so Bam can see their son.”

Margera’s latest party news has attracted a lot of comments online, with a user saying, “And he wonders why his estranged ex won’t contact him? Huh. Bailing on rehab is a massive red flag.” The second user tweeted, “Guy hasn't done anything relevant except get wasted for a decade. His good time caught up to him a while ago it's just running him over now.” “Damn i thought he was doing well! All good, try again :)” the third one noted.

A person shared, “The sad part is people like him don’t understand what you leave your family to deal with when you finally die from your addiction.” Another person remarked, “What a clown. Always disrespectful to his folks who obviously had no idea how to be parents. I blame them.” A tweet read, “And he still can't understand why he got the boot from jackass 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.” “Isn't there just a point you let Bam Margera do whatever and see what happens?” another tweet stated and the third tweet added, "The only way he’s gonna get sober is if he realizes he’s not “in demand” anymore whatsoever and he realizes he’s not a celebrity. The only label he needs in his life is 'Dad.'"
