Eddy had been extremely open about her struggles with substance abuse in the past but in August 2019 she celebrated getting sober.
"If I can be an example of getting sober...," she wrote on Twitter at the time. "Then I can be an example of starting over."
"Getting sober & being able to see & work on correcting my character defects is the absolute best thing that could’ve ever happened to me. So happy & blessed," she said on August 27.
In September, Eddy announced her father was also clean and sober.
“Here’s the first picture of my father and me, both sober and healthy, we’ve ever been blessed enough to take,” she captioned a photo of the two of them. “Overwhelmed with gratefulness today #RecoveryRocks.”
