The MTV star, who became famous for his drunken antics on the boardwalk, has struggled with substance abuse for years — and ended up in rehab in 2012.

“Because of the parties and the traveling the percentage on recovery is not the best,” he told People. “It was extremely hard and it took every ounce of effort for me, and I just put my head down and kept moving forward.”

His former co-star Snooki has also been open about her decision to cut back on drinking since becoming a mom.

“I could smell the sake bombs in the bottle,” she wrote in her book. “My milk was so full of alcohol, I could have used it to start a bonfire in the yard. I could have cleaned the toilet with it.”

Following his time on the show, Mike went on to appear on Marriage Boot Camp: Season 3 with his longtime girlfriend Lauren Pesce and more recently Worst Cooks in America: Celebrity Edition.
