Mark Wahlberg congratulated Bam Margera for reaching 120 days of sobriety.

The Ted star expressed support toward Margera via a video response after the troubled stunt performer was connected to him through their mutual friend Jarred Taylor, who worked closely with Wahlberg, 52, during the 2013 movie Lone Survivor.

"What up Mark? It’s Bam Margera here with Dannii, my gal friend," Margera, 44, said while sitting in a car, per a video obtained by a news publication. "[I'm] in San Antonio, Texas, doing some editing at the Black Rifle place and, um, 120 days sober! Rock and roll."

Taylor owns Black Rifle Coffee Company, as well as a gym covered in photos from Wahlberg's movies, where Margera had been working out at for the week while in Texas — where he is also developing new artwork for a clothing company, according to the news outlet.

"I heard you moved to Vegas, because f--- L.A.," the MTV alum joked, referencing the Shooter actor's October 2022 move to Las Vegas with his wife, Rhea Durham, 45, and their four children: Ella, 20, Michael, 17, Brendan, 15, and Grace, 13.

"No totally f--- L.A.," Margera's girlfriend comically interjected.
