At 19, Monet Monico was fast becoming an acting and singing sensation, opening for teen heartthrob Jesse McCartney and appearing on Disney's The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and Nickelodeon's Zoey 101. But just two years later, Monet's family says the Hollywood hopeful has gone from promising young talent to homeless heroin addict, and they're desperate for help. Monet's mother, Diane, says she believes her daughter turned to drugs and alcohol to cope with her father's death, and has been on a downward spiral ever since. Diane says she promptly put Monet in rehab, but after the now 21-year-old checked herself out and relapsed — four times — she kicked her out of the house, and Monet has been living on the streets with her addict boyfriend, Chris. Monet's family gets a firsthand look at what a typical day is like for the young couple as Dr. Phil cameras follow them in their desperate quest to find their next fix. Then, don't miss what happens when Monet and Chris face her family for the first time in six months on Dr. Phil's stage. If given another chance at sobriety, will she take it?
