He said he went to rehab after wrapping up his European tour in July 2023.
The rapper/rocker was proud to announce that he is now sober.
“I’m completely sober from everything. I don’t drink anymore. I haven’t drank since last August,” MGK said.

MGK also appreciated his partner Megan Fox.
"Megan has for sure been extremely helpful in dealing with the kind of psychological withdrawals that come with getting off drugs," MGK said.
"I continue to embrace that this journey is gonna be hard for me, but I accept it and forgive myself, he added.
"I'm also really hard on myself, very self-deprecating. I’m just happy that I’m able to start to be comfortable enough to show people who I am because I kind of depended on my art to do that."
