Florence Welch has celebrated reaching seven years of sobriety.<\/p>\n

The Florence and the Machine frontwoman shared artwork of the number seven surrounded by a heart on Instagram on Tuesday, and in the caption, she wrote: “I am 7 years sober today. I send my love and support to anyone who is struggling. If you are feeling shaky around ED issues, drugs or alcohol, I completely understand.<\/p>\n

“The desire to disassociate is so strong. But please don’t give up. We are going to need you on the other side.”<\/p>\n

She received praise for her commitment to sobriety in the comments, with model\/singer Karen Elson writing, “Florence you always continue to inspire!” and H\u00e9lo\u00efse Letissier from Christine and the Queens posting, “Love you babe,” with a heart emoji. <\/p>\n

Florence’s milestone comes after she opened up about her battle with alcohol abuse during an interview with Rolling Stone back in 2018. <\/p>\n

“Being an extreme drinker was a huge part of my identity. Music and alcohol are sort of my first two loves,” she told the magazine at the time. “When I stopped, there was this sense that I was letting some ghost of rock history down that I just couldn’t cope anymore. It was monumental. It wasn’t like, ‘I want to be healthy and I need a change of pace.’ It was like, ‘I’m going to die. I need to stop.'”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
