Demi Moore's Nitrous Drug Use Forced Ashton Split

There are reports that Demi Moore’s Nitrous drug use, out of control, party-hard lifestyle caused her split with Ashton Kutcher. This behavior eventually lead to her hospitalization.

“Really, it was over the last year her friends saw a change,” a source told PEOPLE. “She wasn’t sleeping as well, didn’t seem to be eating and looked really gaunt.”

Sources close to both Ashton and Demi said that her prescription drug use was also a big turn off.

“It was a sticking point for Ashton. He wanted her to take care of herself and get a hold of things, and she wouldn’t.”

Moore’s publicist didn’t comment on the reports of substance abuse, but said the actress is seeking treatment for “stress and exhaustion.”

Ashton Kutcher Tight-Lipped As Demi Moore Battles Breakdown

Ashton Kutcher for his part has remained mum as his estranged wife Demi Moore was hospitalized after allegedly suffering a seizure from ‘whip its’ filled with nitrous oxide.

While everyone has been sending Demi well wishes, one noticeably missing thoughts of concern has yet to come from estranged husband, Ashton (at least not publicly). The 33-year-old was been seen partying it up at a Bruno Mars concert while cutting a rug with a mob of model-like women.

Could it be that Demi Moore’s Drug Use Led To Split With Ashton Kutcher?

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
