Many of Green’s fans and fellow artists responded in support for the musician. You can see what they had to say below.
Recovery is a journey with bumps along the way sending healing vibes to you and your beautiful family life will always knock us down or derail you from your plans and goals it’s just a matter of getting back on track and forgiving yourself

Minor mistakes don’t define you. Nobody is perfect. We’ve all been pushed into a corner. Sobriety will be a battle for the rest of your life but you have so much support from your family and every single fan you’ve influenced. Me included. I owe you so much of my life.

Anthony Green has been vocal about his addiction in the past, penning an essay for Spotify about his journey with substance abuse.
“I was 19 when I first went to rehab. The first time I was ever sick from not doing drugs was then. [I’d been doing] lots of opiates, pills, heroin, cocaine—just kind of anything. I was doing them so much that my body was getting dependent on it,” he wrote in that essay that was published in September 2018. At that time, he was celebrating four years of sobriety.
In 2016, Anthony Green dropped a solo album Pixie Queen that was heavily influenced by his wife helping him overcome his addiction. You can listen to that album below.
