Fashion designer Marc Jacobs has entered rehab.
"Marc made the right decision," Jacobs' longtime business partner Robert Duffy told Women's Wear Daily, which reported the story on its Web site Monday.

Jacobs had previously acknowledged in interviews that he abused drugs and alcohol.

"He'd been sober for seven years. When he relapsed, he wanted to deal with it right away," Duffy said to the industry newspaper. "According to the experts, such a relapse isn't uncommon. Thankfully, Marc recognized the problem himself and chose to deal with it. Obviously, our prayers are with him."

The confirmation that Jacobs was at a treatment facility came on the day that Jacobs received two nominations from the Council of Fashion Designers of America for its upcoming awards. He was nominated in the womenswear and accessories categories.


He's my favorite fashion designer. I hope he gets better soon! His designs are great!!!
