Richards revealed that she gave up alcohol to improve her health during a difficult period when she did not feel her best emotionally or physically. She admitted many people enjoyed her outgoing personality when she drank, but some reacted negatively after she stopped. However, she refused to let those opinions influence her decision and remained committed to living a healthier and happier lifestyle.
The television personality explained that she soon realised she could still enjoy life and social events without alcohol while avoiding the difficult feelings she often experienced the following day. She added that people who questioned her decision were often more affected by their own feelings than by her personal choice. Instead, she focused on the positive changes she experienced and the peace that came with her new lifestyle.

Alongside her heartfelt message, Richards posted a new selfie wearing a cowboy hat and thanked supporters who had encouraged her throughout her journey. She stressed that sobriety may not be the right choice for everyone but urged people not to feel pressured into drinking simply to entertain others. Looking back on the past four years, she said she remains happy, grateful, and proud of the life-changing decision she made.
