Mike Caussin discussed his sex addiction in his joint memoir with wife Jana Kramer, The Good Fight. The couple separated in 2016 when he entered rehab for his addiction, and reunited the next year. 

“”I want to be very clear about something: society has had the nerve to call sex addiction a ‘married man’s excuse’ to which I say bull…(wait for it)…s**t,” Mike writes in The Good Fight. “Addiction is not an excuse at all, and I make sure to never use it as such. However it is an explanation.”

Jada Pinkett Smith confessed on Red Table Talk that she’s suffered from a sex addiction in the past, saying that she “went cold turkey” to conquer it. 

“I am a binger, and I always have to watch myself and I can just get obsessed with things,” Jada said. “It’s not what you’re doing but how you’re with it. Why you’re doing it. It’s the behavior that’s attached to it because if you want to have a lot of sex, that’s great, but why are you having all that sex? That’s what you’ve got to look at.”

Russell Brand detailed his 2005 stay in rehab for sex addiction in his memoir My Booky Wook. “At one point, about five years ago, I had a harem of about 10 women, whom I would rotate in addition to one-night stands and random casual encounters… I was on the brink of becoming sufficiently well known for my carnal overindulgences – with lapdancers and prostitutes, to say nothing of all the women who didn’t sell sex for a living – to cause me professional difficulties.”
