As reports surface that Tiger Woods is at a sex rehab facility, Dr. Drew Pinsky offers an inside look into that world.
"In recovery, you're as sick as your secrets, and Tiger is going to have to get honest about everything," the "Celebrity Rehab" doctor explains, reacting to the reports. "Ultimately Tiger will have to come clean on everything."
Many are wondering if Tiger's wife Elin will visit him if it does turn out that he's in a rehab facility. Dr. Drew responds, "Absolutely, in sex rehab there is family treatment that is a critical component of care and, of course, disclosure and rebuilding trust is a key component of that.

Cindy McCain, the wife of former presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, is taking part in the NOH8 campaign.
Mrs. McCain joins a number of celebrities -- including Isaiah Washington, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, Fran Drescher and the McCains’ daughter Meghan -- who’ve lent their famous faces to the campaign in protest of Proposition 8, which banned same-sex marriage in California.
“Although we had worked with [Cindy and John’s daughter] Meghan McCain before and were aware of her own position, we'd never really thought the cause might be something her mother would get behind,” the NOH8 campaign’s Web site says. “We have a huge amount of respect for both of these women for being brave enough to make it known they support equal marriage rights for all Americans.”
