Mandy Moore Rushes to DJ AM's Bedside

Mandy Moore has rushed to the bedside of her ex, DJ AM, who is recovering in a Georgia hospital from severe burns suffered in a Learjet crash that also critically injured former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, a source confirms to "The Insider."  

Moore caught a flight to Augusta, GA to visit DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, who remains in critical but stable condition at the Joseph Still Burn Center. Moore and Goldstein dated for about two months in early 2007.

On Sunday, Travis Barker's ex-wife Shanna Moakler flew to the hospital to be with Barker as he recovers. Today, she thanked fans and supporters for "an outpouring of love and support" and said the tragedy had forever changed their lives.

"There are not enough words to express how thankful we are for the outpouring of love and support we have received during this very difficult time. We can only ask for prayers as we heal and mourn the loss of our dear friends who we considered part of our family. Our lives will be changed forever," Moakler said through a rep.

Doctors for Barker, 32, and Goldstein, 35, say both are expected  to make a full recovery despite the second and third degree burns suffered in the crash.

The coroner's office in South Carolina where the crash occurred confirmed that the other four people aboard the Learjet were all killed. The aircraft's pilot and co-pilot died from smoke inhalation while two passengers were killed by injuries resulting from the impact, the coroner said.  

Investigators have said the crash may have been caused by a blown tire during takeoff.
