“20/20” co-anchor Elizabeth Vargas has been MIA for weeks, due to alcohol abuse at rehab. Vargas checked into rehab a couple weeks ago — according to the NY Daily News — and will remain in treatment for a few weeks more. She’ll return to “20/20” when she’s released from the rehab facility and ABC will welcome here back. Vargas released a statement saying she suffers from addiction, claiming, “I realized I was becoming increasingly dependent on alcohol. And I feel fortunate to have recognized it for the problem it was becoming.” We wish her luck!
