Scott Disick's wellbeing has been a topic of conversation on “The Kardashians” for years over his past struggles with substance abuse. Now, his extreme transformation has got the famous clan worried.
The entertainer, who shares three children with ex-lover Kourtney Kardashian, raised eyebrows over the weekend with a shocking gaunt appearance.
While many speculated Disick may have returned to his dark ways, insiders claimed he shed significant weight thanks to Ozempic.
Scott Disick's Joined Hollywood's Viral Weight Loss Trend
It is no secret that several celebrities have debuted impressive new figures since discovering the viral weight loss hack known as Ozempic, and Disick is reportedly not an exception. Unfortunately, he seems to have taken the drug a little too far.
The 40-year-old is skinnier than ever, a transformation that had many thinking he was suffering from an undisclosed disease or using illicit drugs. Contrary to the viral speculations, his concerning appearance results from a desperate attempt to get rid of his “dad bod.”
“He is not ill and isn’t doing hardcore drugs. Kourtney would never allow Scott to spend so much time with their kids if he was in the throes of an addiction,” a source told The Daily Mail, adding:
“Scott started taking Ozempic because he had serious issues with his weight gain. This time last year, he saw himself as fat.”
Disick's Extreme Method Has The Kardashians Worried
The insider explained the “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” alum disliked his image on TV and used the viral drug as a quick way to get rid of the extra pounds he had gained. In their words:
“He had gained a lot of weight and couldn’t stand seeing himself in video footage that aired in the past couple of months. He would go to great lengths to cover it up.”
Although Disick got the desired effect from Ozempic, the source stressed that the Kardashians were concerned about his well-being. Their statements seemingly referred to his recent gaunt appearance, saying:
“Scott wanted the easy way out of his dad bod. But now it has clearly gone too far, and, of course, the family is worried about him. They will likely use this for show ratings in The Kardashians.”
Scott Disick's Weight Was Previously Addressed On The Reality Show
Although it is believed that Disick's Ozempic transformation might be documented on the Karjenner family’s reality TV show, the source thinks it could positively help him realign his weight loss goals. In their words:
“Scott is strong and will be able to get through this – especially now that he knows that it has become a huge problem with his image and fame.”
Last year, Disick's weight issues were addressed on an episode of Hulu's “The Kardashians.” The scene followed Khloè Kardashian's visit to his home over her concerns for his wellbeing after he suffered a back injury in a 2022 car crash.
During the episode, Disick confessed that he had not been doing the physical therapy necessary for his recovery, and later told his doctor: “I haven't been able to run around. I've gained weight.”
Fans Were Concerned About His Sickly Appearance

As stated, Disick got fans worried about his health following a gaunt appearance at the Catch Steak restaurant in West Hollywood. Pictures from the weekend outing went viral on social media, with many sharing the same narrative about his extreme weight loss.
“He looks very, very unwell,” someone observed, with more fans agreeing. A second penned their love for Disick amid what they believed was the Karjenner clan's abandonment. In their words:
“He looks like he is sick. I hope he gets help. I like Scott. I feel he has been punished over and over for mistakes he made in the past with Kourtney, and the majority of the Kardashian family has abandoned him. Khloe seems to be the only one who checks in on him.”
Disick Left A Flirty Comment On Khloe Kardashian’s Sexy Post
Two months before sparking concerns about his health, Disick got fans talking by dropping a seemingly flirty comment on Khloè's steamy post. In January, the reality TV star shared a jaw-dropping photo from a cover shoot with TMRW Magazine.
The image featured a semi-nude Khloè flaunting her stunning curves in a one-sleeve black jacket that exposed half her body. She dodged Instagram's strict nudity laws by using an apple to cover her nipple while leaving plenty for fans to enjoy.
She completed the sexy look with bold makeup and chunky crucifix earrings while her hair was slicked back. After sharing the photo, Disick sparked mixed reactions with the suggestive comment: “[Apple emoji] a day keeps the doctor away.”
