Nick Reiner's Deadly Breakdown Might Have Been Avoided

from TMZ Minute Hosted by TMZ

Dr. Drew says Nick Reiner’s deadly breakdown might have been avoided if GLP-1 weight-loss drugs had been used to counter medication-related weight gain before a change in psychiatric meds allegedly triggered a violent break from reality. Thora Birch and her husband apologized after a tense confrontation with an autograph seeker in Beverly Hills, saying they felt followed and that Birch later tried to calm things by signing photos. Jessica Simpson shut down rumors she’s joining The Bachelorette, saying she doesn’t need reality TV to find love despite her recent separation from Eric Johnson.
