He tells us his wife, Jennifer Gimenez from “Celebrity Rehab” … received a call last week informing her of Seth’s whereabouts and Tim was planning to fly to L.A. to help locate Seth in the park and get him back into treatment … but sadly, it was too late.
Seth’s death came 2 and a half months after Tim last spoke to him. He says Seth was once again struggling … something the TV star puts down to the soul-sucking, negative Hollywood influences which made it difficult for Seth to prioritize his recovery.

Tim adds the news is particularly heartbreaking, considering Seth was on fire just a year and a half ago … before his 2023 DUI in North Carolina brought everything to a screeching halt.
Despite his challenges, Tim wants us to remember Seth for having a heart of gold and always helping others get into treatment or sober living rather than helping himself.
As we reported … Seth manager’s confirmed he died from an accidental drug overdose after mixing prescription drugs with street-purchased drugs. The medical examiner’s official investigation is ongoing.
