In what seemed like a casual TikTok video, Delilah Hamlin — the eldest daughter of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna — sent shockwaves through social media when she revealed that her ex-boyfriend once manipulated people around her into sending her to rehab. The short clip showed Delilah flashing a white star on her tongue, captioned with the chilling words: “When your ex tells everyone you're crazy and gets his mom to convince people to send you to rehab… not knowing you’ll come out unstoppable and your career will take off.”
But this wasn’t just another vague internet confession. In the comments, Delilah clarified the incident occurred seven years ago, when she was in her early 20s and struggling with panic attacks and prescription drug dependency — a battle she later spoke publicly about in 2021. At the time, she had been hospitalized for overdosing on Propranolol and Xanax, which she said were prescribed excessively by a doctor.
What makes the story even more disturbing is a recent leak of internal emails, reportedly showing that Lisa Rinna herself may have played a behind-the-scenes role in her daughter's forced admission. According to a source close to the rehab facility, the emails included communications between the family’s representative, the ex-boyfriend, and a luxury treatment center in Arizona — the same place Delilah stayed for three weeks before being “politely asked to leave” after experiencing a seizure.
One of the most shocking details? Lisa Rinna’s name allegedly appears in the CC line of the emails — suggesting she may have been informed, if not outright involved, in the decision to admit Delilah to the facility, which, as Delilah noted, was “owned by a friend of my mom’s.”
So far, Lisa has remained uncharacteristically silent — a stark contrast to the image of the fiercely protective mom who never hesitated to defend her daughters on national television. A stylist formerly employed by the family revealed, “Lisa lost it when she saw the video. She never expected Delilah to reopen that chapter, let alone mention her name so directly.”
Delilah hasn’t revealed the identity of the ex-boyfriend in question, but fans have already begun speculating based on past public relationships and timelines.
What was once buried as a private chapter of pain is now resurfacing in ways no one expected. And with more pieces reportedly leaking — including treatment contracts, medical notes, and even portions of therapy journals — the polished image of this Hollywood family is beginning to crack in full public view.
