Duane and Beth Chapman

Dog the Bounty Hunter star Duane Chapman considered taking his own life following the tragic death of his wife Beth.

The reality star died in June after losing her battle with throat cancer and, speaking during Wednesday's season finale of his hit show Dog's Most Wanted, Duane opened up about his feelings immediately after his wife's passing.

"I've only been alone as I showered and I had to run out without a towel because I can't be alone right now," he said, according to People. "That's when I start thinking about things."

The star, 66, added he didn't realize 'psychologically" that she was gone and that he would never see her again, adding he hoped he wouldn't "live much longer" without her.

"I want to take a God damn pain pill so bad," he said. "I feel like if I did something to myself right now and passed away suicidal and I got to heaven and was like, "Hi honey,' and would she go, "You dumb a*s, why would you do that?' Or would she go, "Wow, you're here.' I'll be like "Of course I'm here. You left me. I'm here.' So, am I obligated to do that?"

The star recently honored his late wife on what would have been her 52nd birthday with a montage of clips of Beth on the popular TV show, which opened with the star saying, "This one's for Beth," as he penned in the caption: "There will never be another like you. Happy birthday Beth! We (love) you!"
