Rob Kardashian has been struggling with his weight for years and his family has been worried for his health for the longest time, and now their worries finally became too real. The 28-year-old has reportedly been rushed to the hopsital where he was diagnosed with diabetes. But E! News confirmed that he is back at home now.
"He's home already. He went for a little and is fine now. It was a wake up call," the source tells the site, adding that Kardashian's tests revealed his blood sugar levels were very high, and doctors advised him to lose weight.
According to TMZ, Kardashian wasn’t feeling well over the weekend and was eventually taken to the hospital after his health became worse.
An insider revealed to the gossip site that his diagnosis was a wake up call and the reality star plans to start 2016 healthy.
Kardashian has been battling weight gain and depression for years, this lead him to stay out of the limelight and hasn't been spotted since June 2015.
He missed out important family events including Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding and Kylie Jenner's 18th birthday. He also didn't appear in their annual Christmas eve celebration.
“Rob is still struggling and it makes the family sad,” the source recently told People magazine. “He deals with depression, weight issues and low self-esteem, but that’s been going on for a long time. The family, especially Khloé, is very much there for him but it has to be his own journey to figure out.”
The reclusive Arthur George sock designer normally shies away from the celebrity spotlight, but back in August, Kardashian was on a mission to get back in shape and his personal trainer Gunnar Peterson has insisted that the star is working hard at it.
“Rob is always in!” Peterson told People. “He’s slammed schedule-wise and still makes this work.” He’s got his hands full with his line of socks, Arthur George Socks by Rob Kardashian, but still finds time to take care of himself. “Never worry about Rob.”
For the past several years, Rob Kardashian has been something of a mystery. His weight gain is clear to everyone, but the reasons for it were never revealed.
