Ireland Baldwin Enters Rehab For ‘Emotional Trauma,’ Denies Partying Too Hard
Ireland Baldwin has checked into rehab.
According to Radar Online, the 19-year-old is getting help for substance abuse. The daughter of Alex Baldwin and Kim Bassinger is supposedly addicted to drugs and alcohol and has been “non-stop partying” for months. Her mother, Kim, took her to the Malibu facility over the weekend in hopes of getting her daughter the help that she needs.
“Ireland, accompanied by her mother Kim, did her intake at a center in Malibu on Thursday and checked in the following day. She came in kicking and screaming. Apparently Ireland did not think that she has a problem but she has been partying non-stop and her family is worried sick about her,” shared a source.
Interestingly enough, Ireland Baldwin opened up about entering rehab on Monday. She took to social media to clarify the rumors and to explain why she has decided to get help, denying the “partying” rumors.

According to Perez Hilton, Baldwin recently posted a picture of books (including The Lonely Sea and the Sky and Desperate Voyage) which suggested that she’d be spending some time alone.
“Using social media is supposedly allowed inside the facility she’s at, though it’s unclear how long she will stay,” reports Perez Hilton.
Ireland Baldwin made headlines earlier this month when she was hospitalized with appendicitis. As previously reported by the Inquisitr, Baldwin had been suffering from severe stomach cramps. She confirmed her hospitalization on social media, but there were not too many details about what happened to her, or if she had her appendix removed.
