Jeremy London's Wife Suffers Brain Hemorrhage at 'Celebrity Rehab'

By PopEater Staff Posted Jul 22nd 2010 08:29AM

The wife of troubled actor Jeremy London has been released from a Los Angeles hospital after recovering from a brain hemorrhage, RadarOnline.com is reporting. Melissa Cunningham was seeking treatment at Dr. Drew Pinsky's Pasadena Recovery Center for a prescription pill habit when she fell ill.

"Melissa checked into rehab last Wednesday and was having a really hard time with withdrawal," said a source close to the couple. "After Jeremy checked in to [Pasadena Recovery Center] on Sunday, Melissa suffered the brain hemorrhage and was immediately taken to the hospital."

Both Cunningham and London were staying at Pinsky's facility as part of his VH1 show, 'Celebrity Rehab.' He is there for assorted substance abuse issues.

According to Radar, Cunningham has returned to rehab already. The couple married in 2006, have one child and are currently in the process of divorcing, according to reports.

London has been in the spotlight since a bizarre incident last month where he claimed to have been kidnapped by a group of men and forced at gunpoint to go on a 12-hour methamphetamine and ecstasy binge.

Other participants in his go-round of 'Rehab' include a lot of "formers," as in former Tiger Woods mistress Rachel Uchitel, former model Janice Dickinson, former teen idol Leif Garrett and former 'The Hills' star Jason Wahler.

This sorry lot will undergo 21 grueling and filmed days of detox at the Pasadena Recovery Center, run by Pinsky. Episodes will air later this year. VH1 has long been struggling to nail down enough troubled stars to generate a worthwhile season of the hit series.

That is so funny. There are SO MANY addict/alcoholic stars, I guess not many are desperate enough to go on this show which is actually VERY entertaining. It truly depicts the self-centered and insane nature of recently sober people. It sure helps me stay clean and sober!

VHS is having trouble finding Hollywood celebs to treat? It's not because there aren't any there!!!!!

Bette Midler should be the new Idol judge. She can entertain, will be honest and has a long and successful musical career.

"celebrity rehab"?? So why do they have people no one ever heard of? who the f*ck is Jeffrey London ?...I bet bet Dr Drew would give his left nut to get Lindsay Lohan on his show when she gets out of jail.

He was on Party of Five in the 90's. You must be old enough to remember that show, unless you are only 10 or under, and if so, you're too young to be blogging on this site.

who cares

By artfxus

I heard Uchitel is getting half a mil...for what they pay these leeches to be on their show, VH1 could help a lot of "regular" folks who desperately need/want help but can't afford it...of course VH1 wouldn't profit from that.

Don't know who London or Cunningham are but withdrawl from some of those pills is very rough, even with medical care. Drying out was rough and some of those pills are a lot worse. People think that if they get it from a MD it must be safe, but VERY not so. Pray for her,

too bad it wasn't rachel!!!

Gee,VH1 has long been struggling to nail down enough troubled stars to generate a worthwhile season of the hit series. Hard to believe, just go to any Hollywood club on a Saturday night.

What a BEAST! I wouldn't f*ck his wife w/somebody else's d*ck.

Oh pulease. VH1 is right up there lately with MTV as probably one of the most salacious, lowest of the low media dogs. Rotgut infotainment for sure. A person of marginal 'fame' to go and withdraw all doubt as to why they are just that- MARGINAL.

Knowitall you sound so proud you know who Jeffrey London is
that he was on party of five.I could care less I am glad my head does have that piece of useless information in it, hes hardly a "celebrity". A celebrity is Brad Pitt or Julie Roberts or Simon Cowell, not these has been losers on Dr Drew's show.

By Amy

holy cow VH1 and MTV need to change their names..neither one even THINKS about music anymore..sacrelige

IT'S JEREMY LONDON PEOPLE, JEREMY LONDON-DANG read it again if you don't know what you're talking about. He was on POF (Party of Five) and some Lifetime movies-he was cute back then but he really bloated up.
I see Jason Wahler will be on CR too; you young-ins should know who he is. Jason was on Laguna Beach and The Hills (LC's ex-love)glad she got rid of him, now Dr. Drew needs to get "Speidi" and that will make VH-1's ratings go off the charts!

Jeremy London's twin brother Jason London is the better actor, better looking, much thinner, and starred in "The Man in the Moon" with Reese Witherspoon on Lifetime. People get them confused or don't realize they are twins.
