Oscar De La Hoya has been acting strangely lately especially on Twitter, now we know why.
TMZ is reporting that Oscar has checked himself into Rehab for a substance abuse problem.
We’re told De La Hoya is seeking treatment for a substance abuse problem and checked into a California-area facility within the last few weeks.
De La Hoya has posted a flurry of very introspective tweets in the past few days, including, “Take a deep breathe and let out all that anger that makes you hate. it really is going to be o.k.” and “Stop finding excuses not to live. life is controlled by what you make of it and not of what it makes of you.”
De La Hoya might want some answers on why he was cross dressing back in the day, but overall we hope he gets the help that he needs.
On the bright side he isn’t Roy Jones.
Here is the exclusive statement he released to TMZ.
“After doing an honest evaluation of myself, I recognize that there are certain issues that I need to work on. Like everyone, I have my flaws, and I do not want to be one of those people that is afraid to admit and address those flaws.
“Throughout my career and my life, I have always met all challenges head-on, and this is no different. I am confident that with the support of my family and friends, I will become a stronger, healthier person.
“I ask for respect and privacy as my family and I go through this process.”
