Why is Ireland Baldwin in rehab?

Model Ireland Baldwin has checked into rehab for a few weeks to deal with “emotional trauma.” She hinted on Twitter that her treatment isn’t for drugs because she’s “not much of a party cat,” but that she’s in need of intensive therapy.

She says that she hopes to one day share her story, but that first she needs to build tools and take a “breather.”

“I need to overcome everything that I had been through and rid myself of all the pain I locked away in unreachable places.” She also made it clear that both of her parents, Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger, her stepmom, half-sister Carmen, and her friends have been nothing but supportive of her.

She tweeted this pic of dad Alec, who visited her during a previous hospital visit for appendicitis –

Ireland recently broke up with girlfriend Angel Haze, but a source close to her has made it clear that the romantic dissolution isn’t the cause of her rehab stint. “This was not the reason Ireland entered a multi-treatment facility,” the insider told US. “She entered due to a variety of pressures in her life. Ireland is being pro-active, doing really well, and being positive about life.”

“She’s not using, this is not drug-related, she voluntarily checked herself in,” a source told People. “She’s just been in some tough situations lately, and it’s gotten a bit stressful and overwhelming, so she’s just being proactive. She’s in there to get the tools she needs to move forward in a positive direction.”
