Following much interest surrounding his elaborate home life, the interview with Howard Stern resurfaced and appeared to show his attitude to contraception.

Speaking about his mortality, he said: ‘When you experience near-death situations – life-threatening situations – it’s honest, it’s real…

‘I feel like ‘Yo, I’m running out of time.’ Every time I think I’m doing good, then I got to go back to f***ing hospital. Almost died this time [due to] the blood clots and s**t.’ 

‘I don’t fear it, I welcome it! I got to a space now where [I can say] I’m probably gonna die sooner than most people. I mean, that’s what the doctor said…
