He said he underwent treatment at an Arizona rehab and has been sober for two years. "It's the worst thing I have said in my life, but I didn't mean it," he told the magazine of the anti-Semitic insults he expressed in 2010 and 2011. "I have been trying to find out why that anger was directed at this race. I now realize I was so... angry and so discontent[ed] with myself that I just said the most spiteful thing I could."The BBC said Galliano has been largely shunned by the fashion world and has been keeping a low profile since his outbursts made headlines.
