Blame it on the alcohol. Scott Disick can owe it all to exactly that for his recent hospital stay. According to UsMagazine.com, the reality star was reportedly hospitalized for alcohol poisoning during his belated birthday bash on June 22nd. Kourtney Kardashian’s longtime love and father of two, partied and had several drinks at the Hamptons nightclub 1Oak before being treated at Southampton Hospital. A source stated Disick “went through a dark place” after losing both parents within the past year, but, “is doing great now.”
