Could Mackenzie Phillips' family drama cause her to lose her sobriety?

The actress, who claims she is currently sober, revealed this week that she had had a drug-fueled consensual incestuous relationship with her father that lasted for ten years. Today, her sister Chynna spoke out to support Mackenzie on "The Oprah Winfrey Show," but her former stepmother Michelle Phillips has not been as supportive. Michelle released a statement to "The Insider," which reads, ""Mackenzie's drug addiction for 35 years has been the result of many unpleasant experiences. Whether her relationship with her father is delusional or not, it is an unfortunate circumstance and very hurtful for our entire family."

In the comments section below, tell us, what side are you on?

  • I certainly hope that MacKenzie Phillips is not lying about this whole that would make her disgusting and mentally unstable. How many times has she relapsed? I do hope this time she stays clean and sober Good Luck Ms. Phillips.
