Owen Wilson did attempt suicide

Rumors ran rampant throughout Hollywood that Owen Wilson may have attempted to take his own life early Sunday, claiming the 'Wedding Crashers' star cut his wrist and took a large quantity of pills.

Extra has learned from a source close to Owen Wilson that the actor did indeed attempt suicide over the weekend.

The source revealed to Extra that Wilson has been depressed for the last few months, but insisted it is not over a broken relationship.

Meanwhile, ET reports that Wilson is currently under observation at Cedars-Sinai Hospital.

The sources say that for the first 48-72 hours, he'll be under observation. He has a 24-hour nurse or sitter staying with him and that he'll be in the hospital for at least four days.

Owen is staying in a ward which is referred to as the "celebrity" unit and has rooms described as suites. Several members of Owen's family, including actor brother Luke, have visited him today.
