Bobby Brown has checked into rehab and is currently undergoing psychological evaluation for alcohol addiction, TMZ reports.

Sources say the US singer and former New Edition band member willingly walked into the treatment facility all by himself because ‘he realized he couldn’t do it on his own’.

The 43-year-old, is being treated for alcohol abuse issues. Brown has suffered from this abuse for many years.

In March 2012, he was arrested for drinking under the influence of alcohol.

‘He decided that he needed help and wants to make the best out of the rest of his life for his children’s sake’, a source told TMZ.

The singer who lost his first wife Whitney Houston in February 2012 remarried his long-time fiancée Alicia Etheridge in June 2012.
