Nick Gordon Reportedly Checks Into Rehab

by Allyson Koerner

It's been a tough road for Bobbi Kristina Brown's family, friends, and loved ones. And now, reportedly, her boyfriend Nick Gordon has checked into rehab for drug and alcohol abuse. Supposedly, while sitting down with Dr. Phil, the TV interview turned into an intervention by Gordon's mother, Michelle, and the famous psychologist. Apparently, both tried to convince Gordon to get help and treatment for his alleged use of drugs and alcohol.

If that isn't frightening enough, reportedly, Gordon even revealed that he wants to commit suicide if Bobbi Kristina doesn't survive. Ever since Bobbi Kristina was found unconscious in her bathtub and was placed in a medically induced coma (she was brought out of it, but had to be put back under due to seizures), it seems like Gordon is screaming for help. For example, he tweeted, "I'm so hurt I wanna do myself in, I know I have to strong."

Reportedly, that tweet is the reason Gordon chatted with Dr. Phil. According to the Daily Mail, Dr. Phil saw Gordon's cry for help and reached out in hopes of lending a helping hand. The TV show host isn't the only one worried, as Gordon's mom is too, and rightfully so. Per Us Weekly, she told Dr. Phil, "As we sit here right now, my son's life hangs in the balance."

Well, it seems that the intervention helped, especially since Gordon reportedly checked into rehab after the taping. Whatever the case, let's hope he takes the time to focus on himself and can get the help he needs.

Gordon's Dr. Phil appearance is slated to air Wednesday, March 11.
