Jon Hamm was spotted out at a bar, seemingly drinking away his hard-won sobriety, one gin and tonic at a time, reports Star.
Star exclusively obtained the sad photos that show the former Mad Men actor cradling a drink — and a young blonde — at the Atlanta lounge Sister Louisa's Church of the Living Room & Ping Pong Emporium. "An alarm went off in my head because I knew he'd been to rehab last year," an eyewitness told Star.
"They moved from the bar to a couch and sat there drinking multiple gin and tonics," revealed the eyewitness. "Jon didn't seem to care who saw. He wasn't trying to hide whatsoever."
"His appearance was alarming," the Louisa's patron said. "He looked like a completely different person. He'd lost a lot of weight and his skin was so pale. He'd really let himself go."

Those close to the star also wonder if the status of his relationship with long-time partner Jennifer Westfeldt put Jon on shaky ground. "They were a tight couple for 17 years, then broke up, and then fell into this on-off thing," said the source. "Jennifer was there for him when he went to rehab, and it had been his goal to win her back. But as time rolls on and that doesn't seem to be happening, he's playing the field with other women now."
