However, a source has stepped forward to reassure that all is well with the star, attributing his transformation to the controversial drug Ozempic, aimed at addressing his "dad bod" concerns.
"He is not suffering from any illness or indulging in hardcore substances," the insider informed the Daily Mail. "Kourtney would never permit Scott to spend considerable time with their children if he were grappling with addiction issues.
"Scott began using Ozempic due to significant weight-related concerns. Around this time last year, he became increasingly dissatisfied with his weight and physique.

The former couple shares three children, Mason, Penelope, and Reign.
Ozempic, a brand name for semaglutide, is a prescription medication primarily used for treating type 2 diabetes. Its efficacy in managing blood sugar levels and aiding weight loss has garnered attention, not just among medical professionals but also among celebrities like Oprah Winfrey and Sharon Osbourne. The latter, who has been open about her struggles with weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, credits the medication for aiding her weight loss journey.
