the take
we're obsessed with Sonja. she says she quit drinking, but she is still wild, so if that's her sober, why was she ever drinking? she's always been a little bit wacky, a little bit cuckoo, so maybe she's playing it up for the camera. we have no idea, and we love her vibe either way.
this is the hosts' commentary and speculation for entertainment, not a statement of fact about anyone in it.
the backstory
Sonja Morgan told Us Weekly she quit drinking because her comedy tour, flying and performing in city after city, left her "sick and tired of being tired." she said she cut back from two shots of tequila to one, then half shots, then stopped, and went into The Golden Life sober, packing nonalcoholic drinks.
on the show, Luann questions whether Sonja has really stayed sober. the pills and medication line in the clip is an offhand joke from one of the hosts, followed straight away by "i have no idea". there's no reporting that Sonja is taking anything.
