Harvey Weinstein had another meltdown in front of photographers as he left his daughter's home to board a private jet and fly to an exclusive rehab clinic in Arizona on Wednesday evening.
The clearly agitated disgraced movie mogul, who looked disheveled in a black T-shirt and loose jeans, told reporters: 'Guys, i’m not doing OK but I’m trying. I gotta get help. I’m hanging in, I’m trying my best.'
After at least 30 women in the film industry accused him of rape, groping and sexual harassment, he added: 'You know, we all make mistakes….second chance I hope.'
He was leaving his daughter's home in Los Angeles to fly to a rehab clinic in Arizona, believed to be The Meadows, which costs upwards of $40,000 a month and where former patients include Tiger Woods.
The undignified appearance before reporters ended a torrid day for Weinstein, during which he had a furious row with his daughter, fled her house and tried to flag down a stranger's car after she phoned 911 and reported him as 'suicidal'.
Weinstein was then pictured giving people the middle finger as he as he entered the offices of his lawyer Patty Glasser's flanked by stern-faced and suited male members of his entourage.
As he headed toward the vehicle, Weinstein turned around to make an apparent attack on other Hollywood A-listers.
'And you know I've always been loyal to you guys, not like those F****** pr*** who treat you like s***. I've been the good guy,' he said.
He boarded a private jet to Wickenburg, Arizona, on Wednesday night, the location of The Meadows center, where celebrities including Tiger Woods sought treatment following his DUI bust earlier this year.
