Dennis Rodman Enters Rehab For Alcohol

Dennis Rodman has checked into rehab for alcohol abuse.  

On Saturday, Rodman's agent confirmed that he is looking for help for his years-long struggle with alcoholism.

The former NBA star's treatment comes more than a week after his controversial trip to North Korea, where he defended his friendship with dictator Kim Jong-Un, 31, and exploded during a CNN interview.

Rodman, 52, later accused his eruption on drinking.

"What was potentially a historic and monumental event turned into a nightmare for everyone concerned," agent Darren Prince revealed to the Associated Press.

He went on: "Dennis Rodman came back from North Korea in pretty rough shape emotionally. The pressure that was put on him to be a combination "super human" political figure and "fixer" got the better of him."

"He is embarrassed, saddened and remorseful for the anger and hurt his words have caused," Prince added.

Rodman previously went to a rehabilitation facility for his alcohol addiction in 2008 and suffered a relapse in 2009.
