Florence Welch is Celebrating Seven Years of Sobriety

Florence Welch is marking a major milestone.

The 34-year-old Florence and the Machine singer took to her Instagram on Tuesday (February 2) to celebrate seven years of sobriety.

“♥️I am 7 years sober today,” Florence started. “I send my love and support to anyone who is struggling. If you are feeling shaky around ED issues, drugs or alcohol, I completely understand.”

She continued, “The desire to disassociate is so strong. But please don’t give up. We are going to need you on the other side.♥️ x X”

Back in 2018, Florence opened up about her battle with substance abuse and why she decided to get sober.

“Being an extreme drinker was a huge part of my identity. Music and alcohol are sort of my first two loves,” Florence shared with Rolling Stone. “When I stopped, there was this sense that I was letting some ghost of rock history down that I just couldn’t cope anymore. It was monumental. It wasn’t like, ‘I want to be healthy and I need a change of pace.’ It was like, ‘I’m going to die. I need to stop.’”

Just recently, this actor opened up about his decision to get sober 30 years ago.
