Jessica Simpson Marks 7 Years of “Being Alcohol-Free” in Touching Post About Sobriety Journey

In May 2023, the One Direction alum celebrated being 100 days sober.

“I feel amazing,” he said at the time. “I feel really, really good, and support from the fans and everything has been really, really good.”

His battle began during the height of 1D mania. “The problem we had in the band—and I don’t blame anybody for this…But it feels to me like, when we were in the band, the best way to secure us, because of how big it got, was to just lock us in a room. And, of course, what is in the room? A minibar,” Liam shared. “So at a certain point, I thought, ‘Well, I’m going to have a party for one,’ and that just seemed to carry on throughout many years of my life.”

Throughuot, he’s been candid about his sobriety. “It was only until I saw myself after that I was like, ‘All right, I need to fix myself,'” he recalled in June 2021 when  he said he was more than one month sober at the time. “It was like a few pictures of me on a boat and I’m all, like, bloated out, and I call it pills-and-booze face….My face was just like 10 times more than it is now. And I just didn’t like myself very much, so then I made a change.”
