HGTV Star Opens Up About Sobriety and Her Final Drink - Addiction/Recovery eBulletin

MAGIC GARDEN? – 

June 13, 2025 – WINDY CITY REHAB star Alison Victoria believes if she hadn’t quit drinking, she may have lost the love of her life.

“I don’t need alcohol to be fun, I am still the one dancing on the tables, I’m still the same,” she said in her podcast this week. Victoria has stayed sober for eight months … She recalled the last night she drank. She was in Amman, Jordan, attending a film festival for Anderson’s directorial debut, THE STRANGER’S CASE.

Victoria was getting her makeup done and had multiple margaritas. Before heading to the theater to watch a screening, she hopped on a phone call with someone to discuss filming an upcoming show. While on the phone, she saw a shop across the street.

“I remember there was, like, this shiny liquor store with this big refrigerator with tons of Corona and I’m like, ‘I’m just going to get a Corona. Like, let me just chug a beer.’ I’m doing my call, I’m having a beer,” she said.
