Ireland Baldwin checks herself into rehab
Ireland Baldwin, the 19-year-old daughter of Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger has checked herself into rehab in Malibu.
She has shot down claims that it is from "partying too hard" and has expressed on Twitter how she checked herself into SOBA recovery centre in Malibu for emotional trauma.
The model started by tweeting "God…grant me the serenity tonight," and then went on with a series of tweets explaining her reasons for checking herself into rehab, saying she needed to "get away for a little bit… a chance to work on myself."
Apparently I'm in rehab for intensive partying soooo I'm just going to lay pretty low for a bit and maybe get some frozen yogurt

A source told People: "She's not using, this is not drug related, she voluntarily checked herself in. Shes 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."
We are wishing Ireland all the best and a speedy recovery.
