- In an Instagram post titled “My Confession,” Tait acknowledged that recent reports of his destructive behavior involving drugs, alcohol and unwanted sensual touching are largely true.
- He disclosed a two-decade struggle with cocaine and alcohol and admitted to occasionally touching men in ways they did not consent to.
- After departing Newsboys earlier this year, he spent six weeks in a Utah treatment center and says he has remained clean and sober.
