Dean McDermott shares his candid journey about battling addiction and life after living in a sober facility during an exclusive interview with Page Six. He explains, “I am clean and sober… I got to a place where I finally surrendered and admitted that I needed help.” McDermott opens up about his addiction battle and recovery process with Page Six, crediting Harmony Place Treatment Center in Woodland Hills, Calif., and Freedom House Sober Living for helping him put his life back together.
In his journey to sobriety, McDermott decided to commit “100 percent” to his treatment program, which included participating in breathwork sessions. He reflects on how his life as an addict was destructive not only for himself but also for his family, especially his wife Tori Spelling. Now, at 57 years old, he is focused on maintaining his sobriety and helping others through his work as an alcohol and drug counselor.
McDermott emphasizes the importance of seeking treatment for addiction, urging alcoholics to be brave and know that they are worth it. As he continues on his path to recovery, he plans to return to acting and pursue his passion for helping others through Conscious Community Global. With the support of his girlfriend Lily Calo and his estranged wife Tori Spelling, McDermott remains grateful for the love and encouragement he receives. Together, they navigate co-parenting and support each other on their individual journeys towards happiness and wellness.
