Paris' DRUG HELL

MICHAEL JACKSON'S DAUGHTER, PARIS JACKSON, IS OPENING UP ABOUT THE SELF-DESTRUCTIVE SUBSTANCE ABUSE THAT HAS LEFT HER PERMANENTLY SCARRED.

GIVING THANKS Paris reflected on her sober journey in a January Instagram post. "Gratitude hardly scratches the surface," she wrote.

DURING a Nov. 10 TikTok, Paris Jackson got very candid about a hole she has in her nose that was caused by years of drug abuse. “I have what is called a perforated septum,” she said during the two-minute clip, while holding her phone’s flashlight to her nasal passage. “It’s what you think it’s from,” she continued, likely referring to snorting cocaine and other substances, before warning fans to avoid drugs. “They ruined my life.”

It’s not the first time the 27-year-old model-musician and daughter of the late King of Pop Michael Jackson has talked about her troubled past. In January, Paris revealed on Instagram she struggled with addictions to alcohol and heroin before getting sober in 2020. And in a shocking 2017 revelation, she told Rolling Stone that some of her tattoos cover up track marks on her body from intravenous drug use. “Everyone knows Paris has been to hell and back,” a source tells Star, noting that she began spiraling after the 2009 death of her father. Now, she’s proud of her sobriety and is determined to maintain it no matter what. “Paris puts her recovery at the front and center of her life,” says the source. “She'll do whatever it takes to avoid going down that dark and dangerous path again.”
