Liam Payne Opens Up About Rehab Stay and Apologizes for Controversial One Direction Remarks

Liam Payne spent 100 days in a rehab facility working on his sobriety and mental health after feeling like he had lost his way.
Payne received backlash for critical comments about One Direction and apologized, acknowledging his remarks came from frustration.
During rehab, Payne was cut off from the outside world and focused on rediscovering his passions like music, poetry, and drawing.
Payne credits his ex-partner Cheryl and their son Bear for supporting him through rehab and allowing him to become a better father.
Now 6 months sober, Payne feels more in control and is looking ahead to new projects like an upcoming tour and more social media content.
