    Lane Kiffin Opens Up About Getting Sober for His Family

    Lane Kiffin now appears to have a happy family life, as can be seen from his Fourth of July Celebrations, but that was not always the case. While Kiffin never became estranged from his family, their relationship got rocky at various points in recent years. In an appearance on “The Pivot” podcast in April, Kiffin opened up about getting sober and how he owed that to his children.

    “I owe that to my children,” Kiffin said. “I was great at work but I wasn’t present when I finally got home, because man, I gotta have a couple of drinks… I’m giving my best version of myself at work but not at home, not for the kids.”

    After getting sober, Kiffin’s daughter, Landry, moved to Mississippi to live with him.

    “My daughter (Landry) ended up moving here by choice in high school from Manhattan Beach, California to Oxford, Mississippi to come live with me,” Kiffin said. “I don’t think that would’ve happened before. And now, my son is doing it by choice. And then my daughter stayed here for college when she could’ve gone other places.”

    Kiffin went on to speak about how while he did not hit rock bottom, he got sober because he was tired of digging himself out of messes.
