Mayor’s Drinking Problem Recovery: This Time It’s Different

VIDEO – QUIT WHILE YOU’RE AHEAD –

Dec. 11, 2023 – Tory Whanau has promised “it’s different this time” after previously saying she would keep certain socialising to her home, but then admitting an alcohol problem after being seen drunk in public again. Whanau said the bar manager knew what happened and he had said publicly that it was just a typical Saturday night.

“The fact that it became a public issue was enough to indicate that perhaps there’s a problem I need to work on,” Whanau said.

“During that week and the week after, I had a talk to my friends and family, I was talking to a professional. That’s when I decided to just own the issue and make that public and move on.”
