Marc Jacobs Checks Into Rehab
NEW YORK, NY -- After seven years of sobriety, Marc
Jacobs relapsed recently and decided to undergo a second round of
in-patient rehabilitation for drug and alcohol abuse. Jacobs has publicly
acknowledged substance abuse problems in the past.
The
day after showing his Louis Vuitton collection at Paris Fashion Week,
Jacobs left the French capital and flew to a treatment facility in
Arizona.
Jacobs’ business partner Robert Duffy confirmed Jacobs has gone into
rehab. "Marc made the right decision," Duffy said. "He’d been sober for
seven years. When he relapsed, he wanted to deal with it right away.
"According to the experts, such a relapse isn’t uncommon," Duffy
continued. "Thankfully, Marc recognized the problem himself and chose to
deal with it. Obviously, our prayers are with him."
