Jason Davis's spokesperson has denied reports that he was hospitalised last week after an overdose.
Davis, who has previously admitted to drug abuse, was reportedly admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in LA last week.
A spokesperson for the socialite told the New York Post: "[Jason] did not overdose. Nor is he dead... Jason has been very public about his past use, and will continue to speak out on addiction and recovery."
The rep said that Davis was in hospital after suffering complications from a chronic staphylococcus infection and skin inflammation.
Davis is the grandson of billionaire oil baron Marvin Davis and brother to Paris Hilton's ex-boyfriend Brandon Davis.
