|||
==Mikey Way== |
|||
"I had been self medicating for more than half my life. And as the band grew, so did the introduction of more drugs and more alcohol. Each time I thought I had hit rock bottom I really hadn’t seen the worst yet. When the band broke up, my using had intensified and I fell into total darkness. In the true form of an addict, I disconnected from everyone I knew and pushed away every one I loved. At that point in my life, I was not only lost but in complete self-destruction mode. In February, I was told I should never have woken up. <i>[sic]</i>"<ref>{{cite web|url=http://loudwire.com/my-chemical-romance-mikey-way-struggles-drug-alcohol-addiction/|title=My Chemical Romance’s Mikey Way Shares Struggles With Drug + Alcohol Addiction|date=November 25, 2014|accessdate=October 21, 2016|work=[[Loudwire]]|last=Hartmann|first=Graham|language=English|type=article}}</ref> |

Is there a way to add a personal life section? And if so, can the following be added?
Way has frequently struggled with addiction, leading to the members of Electric Century staging an intervention and forcing him to go to rehab in 2014. In a statement, Way noted: "I had been self medicating for more than half my life. And as the band grew, so did the introduction of more drugs and more alcohol. Each time I thought I had hit rock bottom I really hadn’t seen the worst yet. When the band broke up, my using had intensified and I fell into total darkness. In the true form of an addict, I disconnected from everyone I knew and pushed away every one I loved. At that point in my life, I was not only lost but in complete self-destruction mode. In February, I was told I should never have woken up. [sic]"[1]
While touring with American post-hardcore band From First To Last, he began dating guitar tech and supporting musician Alicia Simmons, whom he married on March 8, 2007.[2] In January 2013, allegations arose that Way was cheating on his wife with 20-year-old fan Sarah Cantergiani after a Tumblr blog posted photos of the couple together, taken from Cantergiani's Instagram account.[3] Way released a statement denying the allegations, adding that "Sarah and I didn't get together until I was already broken up with my ex, and there was no "cheating" involved. [sic]"[4] Cantergiani and Way broke up in 2014.
On October 20, 2016, Way and his wife, Kristin, confirmed via Twitter that they were expecting their first child.[5][6] The couple were married in April 2016.[7]
