"Bear with me, this is an alternative Valentine’s Day post. This is a post about self-love and about the greatest thing I’ve ever done. On January 2, 2023 I celebrated one year of sobriety. While this journey has mostly been private, I felt compelled tonight to let anyone who is struggling know that you are not alone and you are loved," the actress, 33, wrote on Instagram on Tuesday, February 14.

Of course, her fans and fellow Pretty Little Liars costars applauded her for being so raw and real. Troian Bellisario wrote, "Congratulations to you Lucy. This is brave. And cool. And inspirational. And you deserve all the self love and love from others that goes with it. 👏," while Shay Mitchell left a heart emoji in the comments section.

The Hating Game star previously revealed to Byrdie that she quit booze after filming the finale of Pretty Little Liars in 2017.

"PLL was a great chapter of my life, but it’s very exciting to start over," Hale shared at the time. "Becoming a part of this popular show … everyone just says yes to you, so you get away with a lot, and then you make mistakes."

"I’m just always trying to surround myself with better people and be the best version of myself possible," she explained.
