Chrissy Teigen Credits Carl Radke for Sobriety Spark

Chrissy Teigen has credited Summer House star Carl Radke with helping her recommit to sobriety. Teigen, who had previously been sober for over a year, shared that she had returned to drinking, initially with intentions of moderation.

She described how her drinking progressed from occasional glasses of wine to consuming alcohol by 11 a.m. Teigen felt that her drinking was "quiet and consistent" rather than overtly disruptive.

A pivotal moment occurred during an appearance on Teigen's "Self-Conscious" podcast on January 15. Radke's open discussion about his own sobriety journey profoundly impacted Teigen.

Within a week of speaking with Radke, Teigen stopped drinking again. She cited her potential involvement in "Star Search" as a motivator, knowing she needed to be sober for the role.

Teigen noted a significant difference in her current sober path compared to her first attempt. This time, she feels a lack of pressure and a firm resolve, having achieved 52 days of sobriety with no intention of returning to drinking.

Radke, who announced his own sobriety in 2021, expressed gratitude for Teigen's willingness to share her experiences, emphasizing their shared journey. He has since opened a non-alcoholic bar in New York.
