Jeff Lewis Says He is a Functioning Alcoholic
On his SiriusXM radio show, Flipping Out star Jeff Lewis confessed that his breakup and custody battle with ex Gage Edward led him to drink excessively.
“I am leaning a little bit on alcohol because it numbs the pain,” he said. “It helps me with my stress. It helps me relax, and it’s become a routine, frankly.”
He added that at one point he considered removing all the booze from his house because it “would cut out alcohol consumption by like 60 percent.”
“I drink home alone,” he said.
“If I could turn back the clock two years, I would do things very differently than I did,” he reflected. “I disrespected my ex, and I disrespected my relationship, and he disrespected me in the relationship, and we did irreparable damage.”
We love you, Jeff. Watch the full testimony below:
