Austin Powers star Verne Troyer’s long-running battle with alcohol abuse has landed him back in a rehab facility. The small star recently checked himself into a treatment center near his Michigan hometown for 12 days after suffering a relapse. His manager, Elena Fondacaro, confirms to The National Enquirer, "Verne was in rehab and now he’s in outpatient therapy. "Alcoholism is an illness that comes and goes–and Verne realized he was slipping. He decided to go back to rehab because he’s determined to maintain his sobriety." Fondacaro adds, "He’ll be back in Los Angeles to resume work by mid-January. He’s determined to stay sober."
