KUWTK showed Scott Disick through his grieving period and the substance abuse that followed his parents’ deaths. He eventually checked himself into a mental health facility to get help with coping with the loss.
“Scott’s breakup and past issues with Kourtney and his parents’ deaths have deeply affected him,” an insider said at the time. “Although it didn’t always show up in a negative way, these are things he’s constantly had to battle and live with that don’t go away overnight.”
How Did Bonnie & Jeffrey Disick Die?
Kardashian fans have taken to Reddit to discuss what actually happened to Scott’s parents. A Reddit user asked others whether or not they remembered what happened to Scott Disick’s parents. While watching previous seasons, they became curious about what happened to Bonnie and Jeffrey Disick. “I feel like of all people, Scott’s issues have always been the most public (on the show at least, it seems like his worst moments are not edited out as others may be) so I am a little surprised by how secret this seems to be,” they wrote.
One person responded, “I believe his mother died of heart or liver failure, his father had diabetes and a weak heart and after Scott’s mom died, his father stopped taking care of himself and died around 4 months later.”
Several other people mentioned that Scott’s dad wasn’t the healthiest, but after Bonnie died, things really went downhill. Jeffrey Disick just stopped taking care of himself and refused to manage his preexisting health issues.
In a Season 18 bonus clip of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Scott spoke to his son, Reign, and Kim Kardashian about his parents while flipping through an old photo album.
“You know, I don’t think I was really ready to talk about my family but now I think the more I talk about my parents the more my kids will feel connected to them and remember them,” the KUWTK star said. “That’s the only way that they’re gonna ever feel that connection.”
Season 5 of The Kardashians premieres on May 23 on Hulu.
