Natasha Lyonne has thanked her fans for their support after relapsing in January and revealing she was no longer sober. “I am proud to report that this child is doing much better and is back on his feet,” she wrote.
“I want to thank our recovery community and the fans who have stood by my side. While I hope to keep this journey private in some way, I look forward to sharing my experiences, strength, and hope, which is understandable.”
Lyon struggled with addiction to drugs and alcohol throughout the 2000s.
After attending the Sundance Film Festival in late January, the “Poker Face” star wrote that he had relapsed, adding, “Recovery is a lifelong process. To everyone who is suffering, please remember that you are not alone. Thank you for the love and smart feet. I’m going to do it for Baby Bumbo. Honestly. Stay with me, everyone. It’s as painful as our secret. Even if no one tells you today, I love you. No matter how low we fall, you’ll see that our experiences can help others. Go ahead, kids, don’t quit before a miracle happens. Rest is all noise and foolishness. ”
“Poker Face” was canceled by Peacock in November, but Lyonne and producer MRC were considering a new version starring Peter Dinklage as the bullshit detective.
Lyon has several feature-length projects in the works. She will write and direct Bumbo, an indie film about a New York boxing promoter, and was previously set to make her directorial debut with Uncanny Valley, produced by her AI film studio, Asteria Film Company.
