After initial reports stated that Ireland was "unwillingly" checked into rehab by her parents due to substance abuse, a source close to the family told People that Ireland is not using any type of drugs, saying, "She's just been in some tough situations lately, and it's gotten a bit stressful and overwhelming, so she's just being proactive. She's in there to get the tools she needs to move forward in a positive direction." She also denied the rumors in her tweets, saying, "Apparently I'm in rehab for intensive partying soooo I'm just going to lay pretty low for a bit and maybe get some frozen yogurt."
