January 15, 2002
Due to Adam's recent arrest that occurred on January 12, 2002, adam-ant.net would like to release the following official statement.
Adam Ant was admitted into hospital on the evening of Monday, January 14. In a recent mirror.co.uk interview, Adam openly admitted his lifelong battle with manic depression. As Adam acted as a potential danger to others this past weekend, for his own safety and well being, his close friends and family recommended that Adam be admitted to a hospital in Hampstead, London for care.
Despite media claims, Adam was NOT physically attacked by police at any time, nor is there a conspiracy 'out to get him.' Adam is NOT suicidal, however, family and friends are concerned that Adam is not receiving the care that he requires and they do not wish to see him become a potential threat to himself. Adam may be admitted for up to four weeks and his trial date set for January 28 will be postponed.
As the media will no doubt in a 'frenzy' again, it is asked that this time that you respect the privacy that Adam and his family and close friends require during this dramatic and personal time.
adam-ant.net and fans worldwide join together to wish Adam a speedy recovery in time for his HERE AND NOW tour in April. He is in our hearts and we support him in this difficult personal struggle.
Regards,
