This is Grace Vanderwaal's first rehab visit.

Vanderwaal — whose mother passed away from cancer in October 2025 — previously detailed how being a child star affected her mental health.

“Looking back, I have definitely faced the mental repercussions of that growing up," she told an outlet in 2022. "I keep learning about how to take care of myself better and my biggest thing recently is just acknowledging your triggers."

Vanderwaal continued, "I've been doing this for so long that you get desensitized to hate online. I went through a ton of hate online when I was really young. I'm happy it happened though because it prepared me for this life."
