INSIDE STORY: Mischa Barton 'Dealing with Personal Issues'
18 July, 2009
Almost a year after describing her DUI arrest as "a low point," Mischa Barton – who called police with a health problem Wednesday – may be hitting another rough patch. "She has been dealing with a lot of personal issues," a pal tells PEOPLE about the actress who has been spotted club hopping in L.A. and London the past few months. "I don't know if she really ever gave up some of the bad habits that had gotten out of control a couple years back." The 23-year-old actress was scheduled to attend the premiere of her movie Homecoming Thursday night in New York City but Access Hollywood reports she remained at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles under psychiatric hold.
In December 2007, Barton was arrested for DUI, marijuana possession and driving without a license after police spotted her straddling two lanes of traffic while under the influence of alcohol, according to authorities. She pleaded no contest and was sentenced to three years of unsupervised probation in April 2008. [Barton's sister Hania also weathered her own share of rumors after a tabloid reported she was hospitalized in 2008 for a drug overdose.] Later that year in September, the actress split from her musician boyfriend Taylor Locke after dating him for a few months. "I'm not used to being single but it's really nice," she told PEOPLE in October.
The actress then had to fend off tabloid reports after photos surfaced showing a thinner Barton, prompting speculation about her weight and health. "Just so you know I'm happier and healthier than ever. Things are really well in Mischa world and I've just been watching what I eat," she said on her Web site. • Reporting by LISA INGRASSIA, DAVID CAPLAN, KEN LEE and SHAYNA ROSE ARNOLD Posted by admin at 10:56 AM | View: (160)
