WWE Star Paige’s life is a rollercoaster ride which is no less than a movie. This is the reason a full-length feature film has already been made on it. Autobiographies are in the pipeline as admitted by herself. There have been a lot of ups and downs in her life and nowadays, she can claim to be on the brightest side of her life which is substance-free.

Being a wrestler from the age of 13 was not easy for her. Pursuing her passion as well as helping out her family was the reason that Paige entered this physical business at such a tender age which took tolls on her body. As a result, she was getting involved in injecting substances into her body. It grew bigger, day by day and at one point, she also failed WWE’s wellness policy violation. Although, there’s no confirmation whether it happened due to the intake of drugs.

But it did leave an ill-effect on Paige’s body as she became extremely skinny while being in a volatile relationship with former WWE Superstar Alberto Del Rio. But today, the anti-Diva is free from all those addictions. She was a recent guest on Renee Paquette’s Oral Sessions podcast to discuss a myriad of topics such as her substance issues and sobriety. Speaking on her sobriety, she stated the following,

“I’ve been drug free for three years and I have not been drinking for over two, which is really cool. Also, I completely cut all meat and dairy out. I’m not one of those crazy vegans that are just like, ‘You have to be vegan, if not, you’re going to go to hell.’ I love animals, but it’s not about that. I’m just so addicted to being healthy now and feeling good and having my skin look good.”

The former NXT Women’s Champion also went into detail on how she gave up on such bad habits to become a better person,

“Honestly, the drug thing, (stopping drugs), kind of happened when I got the call that I could go back to WWE because that lifted my spirits a lot. I was like, ‘Damn, well, I don’t want to f*ck up anymore.’ Then, seeing this little girl randomly at a grocery store, I looked like do-do. I was really, really skinny and it was a really bad time and stuff,” Paige added.

“She looked at me like I was a superhero, like I was Wonder Woman or something. Obviously, she doesn’t read social media, so she doesn’t see me in the headlines or whatever. She was so happy to see me and she said, ‘I want to be like you one day.’ It really was an awakening moment.” (Quotes courtesy Wrestling News)

Moving on the 28-year-old superstar noted how she’s an influencer all over the world with millions of eyes following her. She needed to be a role model for them. With her past, she can’t be the best role model of them all but at least, she can try to be someone who stood against the odds to go back enjoying the small moments in life.

Paige’s real-life hit another low, four years ago, from now when private nude photos and a sex tape featuring her, were leaked online. She responded that she was “looking into the future and being happy” and that she was hoping her “mistake could help people’s future[s]” while speaking about this incident. She also suffered from “stress-induced anorexia” and considered suicide due to this devastating experience.

Thankfully though, Paige is in a much better place, nowadays with her boyfriend Ronnie Radke helping her out in every aspect of her life. The two happily resides in Los Angeles where the two are involved in multiple projects to keep themselves busy. They have recently done a music video, together while two of the memoirs on the WWE superstar are also in the pipeline.
