Reality television actor Spencer Pratt’s escalating “crazy behavior” is reported to be the tipping point that made his wife Heidi Montag leave their domicile.

His unhinged mental state was first observed on NBC's "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here" as he screamed at fellow castmates over shampoo bottles and other instigating events, and did a strange river Baptism with fellow contestant Stephen Baldwin.

This morning Radaronline.com quoted a source who tells what is happening at the Pratt home. “Spencer has moved out of their Pacific Palisades house... he’s no longer living there.”

Montag has inked on to a new reality TV series and moved in with pal Jennifer Bunney.

Radaronline.com claims it was Pratt's "obsession with crystals and guns" that convinced his inner circle he had lost his mental bearings.

“The few people left in his inner circle fear Spencer has lost his mind,” the source told RadarOnline.com.  Spencer, according to their report, isolated Heidi from the outside world and her family, and was deeply in debt to crystal purveyors and even answered the door with tinfoil on his head. “He told me he was trying to signal aliens,” claims Radaronline's source.  The crystals were reportedly repossessed.
