Violated —that was how Scott Disick reportedly felt after photos of him checking in a rehab facility went viral online. Nevertheless, the celebrity will continue to seek professional help once the COVID-19 issue eases up.

A source claimed that Disick was “upset” when his attempt to seek medical help was compromised, US Weekly previously reported. The news outlet was exclusively told that the “Flip It Like Disick” star would look for new facilities after the concerns with COVID-19 ceased.

Additionally, the 36-year-old celebrity reportedly wanted a facility where he would feel safe. A place where he could get the medical care he needed at the same time his privacy protected.

Disick checked in at the All Points North Lodge Rehabilitation Facility in Colorado in early May. It was not because of alcohol nor substance abuse. The reason behind his decision to seek medical attention was to resolve his silently taunting past traumas.

The specific trauma pointed out was the deaths of Disick’s parents, Bonnie and Jeffrey. His mom passed away in October 2013 while his dad died in January 2014. The deaths were due to long-term illnesses. Sadly, the unfortunate incidents were just three months apart.

Unfortunately, a picture of Disick checking in the rehab facility for his trauma treatment leaked online. After he found out about the incident, he immediately checked himself out.

Disick, after being urged by Sofia Richie and Kourtney Kardashian, decided to subject himself for the treatment. Reports indicated that the “Flip It Like Disick” star felt “hurt, annoyed and upset” for the violation of privacy he experienced amid his intention to better himself.

Marty Singer, Disick’s lawyer, confirmed that his client planned to take immediate legal action, Cosmopolitan reported. The unauthorized online publication of Disick’s photo at the facility could be considered as a violation of HIPAA rules and an invasion of Disick’s privacy.

Currently, Disick is reportedly spending a lot of time with family and his girlfriend amid the COVID-19 quarantine period.

Talking about Disick's girlfriend, Richie, she was spotted on Sunday taking a walk in Los Angeles. However, Disick was not with her.

The 21-year-old model strolled around the area with friends, while maintaining the COVID-19 precautionary protocol. That was the first time Richie was seen out in the public after the rehab incident, involving Disick, broke the internet, Daily Mail reported.
