Rehab

Looks like Heather Locklear has been telling a few pork pies about her treatment for anxiety and depression.

Someone at the Sierra Tucson center where Heather is receiving her treatment has told InTouch Weekly the truth behind the claims.

Apparently Heather is really being treated for the much more common celebrity problem of alcohol and prescription-pill dependency.

There does seem to be some evidence for the claim, as other family ‘insiders’ are spilling on Heather’s problems with addiction, saying:

“Over the years, she’s had in-home detox sessions with a nurse, but none of it has ever worked.”

Hopefully she can sort herself out this time.

Mary-Kate Olsen is reportedly heading back to rehab.

Pals of Mary-Kate Olsen are wondering if she should consider rehab again. After partying hard in Los Angeles Thursday night, the mini-twin was caught on tape nearly being carried to her car, then tumbling backward out of the backseat onto her booty.

Olsen went to rehab in Utah in 2004 for an eating disorder amid rumors that she was also being treated for substance abuse.

Now friends say she is out of control again.

“Even though she refused to talk to Elle magazine about her involvement with Heath Ledger, her decision to keep quiet has brought the whole thing up in the press again and she has been depressed all over,” one pal tells us.

Funny thing is, I saw this video on Friday, but it has been removed since then, along with some images of a very drunk Mary-Kate.

Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler has reportedly checked himself into a California rehab centre, TMZ has revealed.

The father of actress Liv Tyler, who turned 60 in March, is staying at the Las Encinas Hospital drug rehabilitation clinic in Pasadena, the same facility where reality show Celebrity Rehab was recently filmed.

Tyler is getting treatment for a substance abuse problem.

At this stage, the musicians’ rep has refused to comment.

People.com has just learned that actress Lindsay Lohan has checked out of the Cirque Lodge Treatment Centre in Utah, where she has been staying for the past two months in order to clean up her act.

Lohan’s mother, Dina, said of her daughter’s release: “I’m proud of her. She’s moving ahead with her life. Things were getting out of control. She took action. She took responsibility. She really needed to heal.”

An unnamed source revealed today that while Lindsay has finished with her rehab treatment, she may choose to come back for further outpatient care in the future.

“She’s finished the program,” said the source. “Lindsay is done, but she may come back for outpatient treatment. She over-extended her stay because she wanted to. She could have been out awhile ago, but she chose to stay.”

Who wants to start taking bets on how long before the pap’s snap her outside a Hollywood club with her trademark “water bottle”? 24 hours?10? 2?

A week or so back I reported that Lindsay Lohan was to stay in her Utah rehab facility indefinitely… well, that “indefinite” timeframe has just been revealed by Star Magazine as another 2-3 months at least!

Apparently, Lindsay is so comfortable in the facility that she’s afraid to leave, and has as such decided to extend her stay, choosing to fly free from the Cirque Lodge at around Christmas time.

“She’s worried about reentering the read world,” an insider told Star. “At Cirque, there are zero distractions, so it’s harder for her to get into trouble. On the other hand, Los Angeles brings out the worst in her. She gets caught up in the scene, gets high and the dark side comes out.”ÂÂ

The insider added that LaLohan is so scared about going home that she’s even trying to set up some of her fellow patients to come and live with her once they all get out, just so she can keep a few of her “rehab creature comforts” in L.A.

“This is the first time sobriety has worked for her, she claims. It feels so precious and she doesn’t want to lose it. She’s really worried about the temptations out there,” the source said.

I like that they added “she claims” there, because hasn’t she been sparking and boozing up her whole time in rehab? If that’s her idea of sober, than I hate to think what her idea of a drug addict is.

Lindsay’s stuck in sober hell!

Despite rumours that LaLohan was packing her syringes and snorting tubes and leaving the Utah facility, a source close to the star has let slip that will be staying in rehab indefinitely.

The source said: “ will continue her stay at the residential facility for the foreseeable future.”

I guess the fact that she’s been seen drugging up a number of times in the facility during her stay there suggests she’s not quite ready to fly the coop and go at her recovery on her own, huh?

After being released from hospital for attempting suicide, actor Owen Wilson was expected to head straight to a rehab facility to deal with his issues.

However, the troubled star is said to be refusing to go, insisting that there’s nothing much wrong with him – despite trying to kill himself last month – and that he’d rather recover on his own.

Instead of rehab, Owen has hired a $750-a-day “sober companion” to aid in his mental and physical recovery, and is said to be taking this companion away on vacation in the near future.

A source close to the star said: “ doesn’t think he really has a problem.”

Sounds like he’s got a long road ahead of him.
