“On April 7th 2022 I got sober and have stayed sober ever since, completely changing my life in ways I didn’t think were possible.”
She said she completed a 30-day recovery program for alcohol addiction in 2022 at a Sydney clinic.
Gordon’s substance abuse issues were first made public following a 2009 incident involving a drug scandal with Mark Judge.
Gordon called triple-0 to alert police to armed intruders at Judge’s Bellevue Home, sparking an emergency operation.
Police viewed CCTV footage and found that there had been no intruders, with Gordon later admitting that cocaine had been consumed earlier that night.
