In a candid Instagram post, Paris Jackson revealed that she’s five years sober after recovering from an alcohol and heroin addiction. “Hi, I’m pk and I’m an alcoholic and a heroin addict. Today marks 5 years clean & sober from all drugs and alcohol. To say that I’m thankful would be a poor euphemism,” the king of pop’s daughter wrote on the platform alongside a video detailing her journey over the past few years. “Gratitude hardly scratches the surface. It’s because I’m sober that I get to smile today. I get to make music. I get to experience the joy of loving my dogs and cat. I get to feel heartbreak in all its glory,” she continued. “I get to grieve. I get to laugh. I get to dance. I get to trust. I feel the sun on my skin and it’s warm. I’ve found that life keeps happening regardless of whether I’m sober or not, but today I get to show up for it. Here’s a little snapshot of what has been possible because of my sobriety, and my god I can’t believe I almost missed it all,” she concluded.
