It’s the news his mom so desperately wanted to hear in her final moments alive.

On the eve of the anniversary of Farrah Fawcett’s death, her troubled son, Redmond O’Neal, has declared he is sober and the judge overseeing his rehabilitation agrees.

O'Neal told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview he was doing well.

"I'm doing very well in sober living," said the 24-year-old, who was arrested in December on drug charges while on a 24-hour pass from a drug rehab in Pasadena, California.
