Chrissy Teigen Says She’s 52 Days Sober, Credits Carl Radke for Her Reset

A candid talk with Carl Radke prompted the reset after what she describes as a low-key return to “quiet, consistent” drinking.

Overview

  • Teigen announced on Jan. 27 that she is 52 days alcohol-free in a detailed Instagram post reflecting on her recent relapse.
  • She said attempts at “mindful” drinking after more than a year sober gradually slid into earlier-day consumption that left her feeling unwell and missing small tasks like last‑minute grocery runs.
  • Teigen said she quit within the week of her Jan. 15 Self-Conscious podcast conversation with Radke, adding that talks to judge Netflix’s Star Search reinforced that she would not work with alcohol in her dressing room.
  • Radke publicly praised her honesty in the comments, and John Legend signaled support with heart emojis.
  • Her update follows years of discussing sobriety publicly, including a recommitment in 2020–2021, a year sober by 2022, and acknowledgment of a relapse reported in May 2025.
