Country Star Jon Pardi Recalls Reaching 'Breaking Point' With Alcohol Intake

Country music star Jon Pardi has achieved a massive milestone in his sobriety journey and is eager to share all about it!

The "Head Over Boots" singer recently reflected on how much his life has changed since he stopped consuming alcohol. He looked back on what started his transition, revealing how he used to be "unhappy" and why liquor may never be a part of his future.

Pardi opened up about his dark past in an emotional interview, where he proudly revealed his 112-day sobriety milestone. This achievement did not come easy; however, he could not be happier about the benefits that came with this incredible feat.

The entertainer looks better than ever at 38, thanks to all the weight he has lost since dropping alcohol from his diet. "I've lost a bunch of weight," he chimed before recalling the reason behind his physical transformation.

"I was pre-diabetic, and I was just like, 'I gotta stop,'" Pardi explained, stating that he reached a breaking point when he realized he was "unhappy" with his appearance in "every picture, every video."

Soon, the singer understood that he "needed to just take a break" from alcohol, and the unflattering weight followed. He raved about his new looks on the "Country Heat Weekly" podcast and referenced Tito's, a famous Texas-based Vodka brand, by saying:

"I just did a photoshoot, and I was like, 'Damn, I look good.' Take that, Tito's! But for anybody that's thinking about it, if they want to lose weight and you do drink, let me tell you -- it does help tremendously if you stop."

Although Pardi enjoyed the benefits of sobriety, he confessed his alcohol ban may not continue in the future. "I'm retired, OK? Doesn't mean that I can't come out of retirement. But for right now, it's been great," he declared.

Apart from helping him lose weight, the lack of alcohol has also influenced Pardi's self-care regimen. When asked to share what else he does to look good, he revealed that using the steam room "is always good;" however, he plans on starting his facial care journey.

The Country music star noted he followed the famous face washing/lotion routine in the morning, but he wishes to start a night-time regime like his wife, Summer Pardi. Apart from the couple's shared love for facial care, they also share a daughter, whom they welcomed after years of fertility struggles.

Last September, Jon and Summer raved about their eagerness to welcome their daughter in a touching interview. The spouses started dating in 2016 and tied the knot in 2020 but didn't hit the baby jackpot until 2022.

Their bundle of joy arrived after numerous fruitless visits to the hospital that raised the couple's anxieties. "It was definitely an interesting two years of ups and downs — the constant letdown month after month can really be hard on a couple," Summer recalled.

After they repeatedly failed to conceive a child, the "Heartache Medication" singer's wife noted the pair stopped trying and set their worries aside. Turns out all they needed to do was let fate play out, in Summer's words:

"We decided to take a break, leave it in God's hands, and just enjoy each other and this crazy, fun life we live together … and then, surprise, we're pregnant!"

The then-pregnant socialite blamed the pair's past failures on stress, saying: "I think stress has a huge part in it. You hear so many stories like ours of 'the moment you stop trying, it'll happen,' but when you're in that situation, it's really, really hard to not try or not think about it."

"It's just one of those crazy things in life that doesn't make sense, and there's no right or wrong answer," she continued. Meanwhile, her husband could not wait to be a dad, telling sources:

"I'm ready to start a new adventure with my wonderful wife Summer and our new little one — Pardi of three! I'm really excited to meet our baby and to have someone to ride around the ranch with."

Summer shared similar enthusiasm, noting their baby will significantly influence Jon's playful side. "He's such a big kid at heart, always the life of the party, and has such positive energy, so I can only imagine how much fun this little Pardi addition will be for him and our family," she gushed.
