Brian Wilson Placed Under Conservatorship Amid Dementia Battle


Beach Boys mastermind Brian Wilson, 81, has been placed under a conservatorship as he battles with dementia.

People obtained a copy of the court filing for the conservatorship that reportedly noted that Wilson is suffering from a “major neurocognitive disorder (such as dementia),” and that his team said he is “unable to properly provide for his or her personal needs for physical health, food, clothing, or shelter.” Wilson has long suffered from mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder, with the latter known to cause hallucinations, paranoia and distorted reality. Conservatorships gained added attention in in 2021 when Britney Spears successfully argued for the end of what she called an “abusive” conservatorship she was in for 13 years due to concerns over her mental health that resulted in her estranged father and a legal team gaining control over her business and personal affairs. How to take care of the person next to you with out expecting anything in return, how to find beauty in the darkest of places, and how to live life as your truest self with honesty and pride.”
