Not to mention even his work offers started drying up. Add to that mounting bills, family support, digital advertising opportunities, a dry spell on his website, “the empire that once dominated Hollywood gossip no longer delivers the income it once did.”
the source explained it all in more detail and said, “Perez wasn’t living the celebrity lifestyle people imagine—he was fighting to stay afloat. The website wasn’t paying the bills anymore, TV projects kept collapsing, and he was saying yes to almost anything that offered a paycheck.”
Moreover, they also admit, “the expenses never stopped. Between hospital costs, everyday living expenses, and supporting his family, the financial stress became relentless. He felt like he was running on a treadmill he couldn’t get off.”
