Rod Stewart's son Sean has checked into a rehab facility in Malibu to seek treatment for his pill addiction. This decision comes after a family intervention and his recent marriage breakdown. Sean, 44, is currently receiving treatment at the Cliffside Malibu rehabilitation facility, which costs $80,000 per month. The facility offers luxury amenities, including panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, an outdoor swimming pool, and a fully-equipped gym.

According to sources, Sean has a long history of substance abuse and decided to seek help when he realized he was falling off the deep end again. His family, including his father Rod Stewart, staged an intervention due to growing concerns about his wellbeing. Despite this, Sean voluntarily checked into the rehab facility, and his father is said to be proud of him for taking this step. Sean is expected to stay at the facility for 90 days, which is the standard treatment period.

Sean's struggles with addiction began at a young age. He started drinking and smoking cannabis at 13, and later transitioned to harder drugs, including ecstasy, prescription pills, and heroin. He has been to rehab several times in the past, including a stint at the Meadows treatment center in Arizona when he was 19. Sean has also been open about his struggles with addiction, previously revealing that being the son of a rock star was a "curse and a hindrance" that contributed to his addiction issues.

Sean's decision to seek treatment comes after his recent marriage breakdown. He married Jody Weintraub in February 2023, but the couple has since separated and filed for divorce. Sean has also started dating Julia Stambler, the ex-girlfriend of Charlie Sheen. The rehab facility where Sean is staying has hosted several celebrities in the past, including Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian. The facility offers a range of treatments, including yoga, walks, equine therapy, acupuncture, and group counseling.

Sean's family, including his father Rod Stewart, is said to be supportive of his decision to seek treatment. Rod Stewart has eight children with five different women, and Sean is his third child. The family has been through several challenges in the past, including Sean's struggles with addiction and his recent marriage breakdown. However, with Sean's decision to seek treatment, the family is hopeful that he will be able to overcome his addiction issues and move forward with his life. The addiction treatment process is expected to be challenging, but with the right mindset, Sean is determined to succeed.
