Coming clean! On January 7, Paris Jackson revealed that she was celebrating five years “clean and sober” after secretly battling an addiction to alcohol and heroin. “To say that I’m thankful would be a poor euphemism,” the model, 26, captioned an Instagram video of her remarkable journey from rock bottom to recovery. “Gratitude hardly scratches the surface. It’s because I’m sober that I get to smile today.”
Reaching the five-year mark is considered a very big deal in addiction recovery, a source exclusively tells Life & Style, which is why Paris wanted to share this significant milestone with her 5.4 million followers.
“Sobriety has truly changed her life. It’s the best decision she ever made,” the source says. “Paris has never felt more alive since she gave up drugs and alcohol and put that toxic lifestyle behind her. She’s in such a good place now.”
