Owen Wilson perks up

WOODY HARRELSON’S HOUSE, LOS ANGELES, UNITED STATES: After a difficult week recuperating following his attempted suicide, Owen Wilson’s mood was found to be surprisingly up-beat after a Get Well Soon card and package was sent to him by fellow friend and comedian Steve Coogan today.

Friends claimed that he was in a bad way, but the package, which included a card with a picture of some flowers on the front saying ‘Get Well Soon’ really cheered him up. “Steve even wrote a lovely message saying, ‘I hope this will put a smile on your face’ and you know what? It really did” they reported.

There were rumours earlier in the week, aired by Courtney Love, that Coogan was to blame by introducing Wilson to the hard-core drugs that only made his break up with Kate Hudson more unbearable and led to his eventual attempt to end his life.

“How wrong they were,” said friend Woody Harrelson. “Since Coogan’s card and package Owen has been happy as Larry; cracking jokes, talking fast, jumping about and slurring his words. Just like before the suicide. He keeps asking when Steve is coming over and his eyes dilate like a child in a sweet shop.”
