Dennis Rodman Got Sober For His Kids
After 30 days of sobriety, Dennis Rodman spoke to Page Six about his recent epiphany.
“I want to see my kids grow up. I just needed to stop partying, take a step back and get my life back in order,” he said. The former NBA star went into rehab in January after a DUI.
He added, “A lot of people connect me with partying and being a bad boy, but now I am getting up in age, so I felt it was time step back and to re-evaluate my life . . . like seeing my son, D.J., who is a high-school basketball star, play for the NBA.”
He also admits that sobriety hurt his bookings “because everyone wants the crazy, entertaining Dennis, not the Dennis drinking cranberry juice.”
Dennis says he’s waiting for government approval to go see Kim Jong-un. “We were with him last June, and we are waiting on permission from the government to go back. I hope we can have another discussion with Kim on how to move forward.”
