On December 9, 2022, TMZ announced that Bam Margera was hospitalized in San Diego with severe pneumonia and COVID-19. He was put on a ventilator in the ICU, and his condition was stable, according to the publication.
In August 2022, his mother, April Margera, and his brother, Jess Margera, addressed Bam’s ongoing issues with addiction. He had a healthcare guardian, and fans worried that he was in a conservatorship, Page Six notes, prompting a “Free Bam” movement much like the one created for Britney Spears. “It’s no secret that Bam has struggled with mental health and addiction,” they began in a post on Instagram. They later added, “Despite rumors, Bam has never been in a conservatorship but rather a temporary healthcare guardianship for reasons not shared with the public.” His mother and brother said it’s up to Bam to share those details later, should he wish to. They continued to ask for support from fans as Bam continued his sober journey.
