Trying Dry Jan? These 21 sober celebrities might surprise you and serve as inspiration

Bella Hadid in New York.

Doing Dry January and feeling like you'd like a large glass of Merlot a la pronto? You're not alone. While the month has only just kicked off, stats show that we're a mere two weeks away from reaching the day you're most likely to give up on your pledge, with the 16th January scientifically backed as the day you're most likely to give up. Work stress, busy lifestyles and too many unattainable New Year's Resolutions all play a part in weakening our resolve - but we hope inspiration from over twenty sober celebrities below might inspire you to keep going.

That's right - all of the stars in this feature have spoken openly about giving up alcohol to boost both body and mind. And it feels part of a cultural shift, too - research from non-alcoholic spirit brand Three Spirit found that six million people swapped their usual favourite tipple for an alcohol-free alternative in 2022, with the #sobercurious hashtag on TikTok racking up nearly half a billion views and counting. More and more celebrities and individuals alike are not only becoming sober curious, but taking it all the way and ditching alcohol altogether.
