Paris Jackson is celebrating her life journey, especially in the last five years, as she reveals that she has been clean and sober for five years.
The 26-year-old who turned heads with her incredible all-black outfit at a Golden Globes party on January 5, wearing a see-through blouse with nothing underneath, candidly reflected on her relationship with alcohol and heroin, and what the decision to give it all up for good, has done to her life.
Paris Jackson who put up a long video narrating her journey at the dark side of life, posted a message about how she feels about her journey, while also appreciating all the people in her life.
“Hi, I’m PK and I’m an alcoholic and a heroin addict.
Today marks t 5years clean and sober from all drugs and alcohol. To say that I’m thankful would be a poor euphemism. Gratitude hardly scratches the surface. It’s because I’m sober that I get to smile today. I get to make music to get to experience the joy of loving my dogs and cats. I get to feel heartbreak in all its glory. I get to grieve. I get to laugh. I get to dance. I get to trust/ I feel the sun on my skin and it’s warm. I’ve found that life keeps happening regardless of whether I’m sober or not but today I get to show up for it. Here’s a little snapshot of what has been possible because of my sobriety, and my god i can’t believe i almost missed it all. Thanks,” she said.
This is coming after only last month, she revealed the news that she had accepted Justin’s proposal while paying tribute to him on his birthday.
She wrote: “Happy birthday my sweet blue,” alluding to her adorable nickname for Justin.
“Doing life with you these last years has been an indescribable whirlwind and i couldn’t dream of anyone more perfect for me to do it all with. thank you for letting me be yours. i love you.”
Paris didn’t outwardly announce her engagement to Justin, nor did she include any further details about the proposal, but she shared several photos of him down on one knee as he popped the question.
Photos from her Story gave more details about the moment, as they stood in a gilded room as he proposed, she joined him in getting down on her knees where they held each other tight.
Another photo showed a close-up of the ring, giving fans a glimpse of the giant rock on her finger.
Paris reportedly first started dating Justin back in 2022. He is a producer, mixer, and music engineer from California who has worked with Paris behind the scenes at her shows for several years.
Paris’ engagement to Justin may come as a shock to some as in 2020, she admitted that she saw herself settling down with a woman/
“Never thought I’d end up with a dude,” she confessed. “[I] thought I’d end up marrying a chick. I’ve dated more women than men. Been with more chicks.”
Paris Jackson added: “The public only knows about three long-term relationships I’ve been with and they’ve been with men. The public doesn’t know about like most of the relationships I’ve been in.
“I say I’m gay because I guess I am, but I wouldn’t consider myself bisexual because I’ve dated more than just men and women, I’ve dated a man that had a vagina. It has nothing to do what’s in your pants, it’s literally like, what are you like as a person?”
Paris previously dated another bandmate, Gabriel Glenn, whom she split from in 2021 after two years together.
Speaking about the split, she shared on Red Table Talk: “It was the deepest I ever loved someone, it was the most intense I’ve felt so far and the most intense betrayal I felt so far and experienced.
“It’s definitely closed me off to that, I’m very careful with who I spend time with now and very guarded and trying to protect myself.”
