Liver King admits to steroid use in apology video \u201cI\u2019m making this video to apologize because I f**ked up. Because I\u2019m embarrassed and ashamed. Because I lied and I misled a lot of people,\u201d began Liver King \u201cBefore social media I was rich and anonymous and after social media I\u2019m still rich but no longer anonymous and I never expected this kind of exposure in the public eye. It\u2019s been tricky as f**k to navigate\u2026Clearly, I did it wrong and I\u2019m here now to set the record straight.
