https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-15920225/jordan-peterson-health-daughter-fathers-day-sad-update.htmlFears are growing over psychologist Jordan Peterson's 'ill health' after his daughter's cryptic Father's Day post and a sad update about his private battle left fans disheartened.
Peterson, 64, is a bestselling author, public speaker and clinical psychologist. He is predominantly known for his work in the 'manosphere' and controversial views on gender, politics and society.
Yet the author, who boasts a net worth of up to $100million (£75million), began to battle serious illness late last year and was admitted to intensive care.
But nearly a year later, Peterson's health appears to have made little improvement as a cryptic message from his daughter, 34-year-old Mikhaila, on Father's Day offered little hope.
A photo of the pair from years ago was shared on X by Peterson's daughter, accompanied by the words: 'Happy Father's Day. Miss you.'

Sad his family is going through this, but never really heard of the guy, so...

(9,718 posts)But Peterson would never admit to mental health difficulties. But I've followed where he is over the years, and he seemed to break after his disastrous appearance on Jubilee. He just seemed to fall apart after that. I think he's had a severe mental breakdown and they are trying to cover it with a physical medical issue because admitting to mental health problems would destroy his business.

As Jordan Peterson would respond.

(3,523 posts)I'm sorry, these people will grift until they die. It's all about keeping her father in the public eye because she's no doubt lining up a ghost-written memoir that describes her remarkable childhood with her "exceptional" father. I'm so sick of needy spotlight grabbing no talent shits. Your daddy is going to die and 2 weeks later his memory will be competing with what endangered animal
Don Jr. shot that week in Africa - a Jenner family scandal, or another suitable manufactured crisis by the right. If all that seems mean-spirited, good.
