Margera last went to rehab in January 2018 after being arrested for driving under the influence, Page Six reported.

In September 2017, Margera's parents revealed that his "rock star" lifestyle spun out of control, leading Margera to drink instead of eating and speculating that the skateboarder also had bulimic tendencies.

Margera admitted at the time to abusing both alcohol and drugs.
