How much stranger will the Ted Williams story get?
One day after being detained by police for an apparent fight with his daughter, Ted Williams, the so-called "man with the golden voice," is heading to drug and alcohol rehab ... thanks to Dr. Phil.
Williams, who has made dozens of television appearances since being plucked from obscurity by the hand of fate after a reporter filmed the homeless man delivering a radio-caliber pitch for spare change, apparently heeded Dr. Phil's advice for treatment while taping an episode of the therapist's show.
According to USA Today, Williams admitted to the good doctor that he has been drinking alcohol on a daily basis, contrary to his previous claims that he had been clean and sober for two years.
"If Ted is ever going to get better, he's got to be honest with himself and admit he's addicted to drugs and alcohol," said Dr. Phil. "I've told him it's not going to be easy and it's going to take a lot of hard work. it might be a long journey for him, but this is a big step in the right direction."
The show will air on Thursday.
