Stewart, who has played PC Reg Hollis on the police drama for 24 years, slashed his wrists in a suicide bid on Tuesday.
The TV star was reportedly distraught by news that his contract with the show wasn't being renewed.
A report in The Sun has claimed that Stewart gets paid £150,000, but that this doesn't cover his debts.
A source commented: "Jeff is in financial trouble. He has been sobbing and there have been a lot of tears.
"He was semi-conscious in hospital, so he has been through an ordeal. He is very badly hurt and terribly disappointed about being axed."
Stewart is alleged to have told friends: "I’m on the edge."
