Eva Mendes has checked out of rehab and is back at home in Los Angeles, according to reports. The star was admitted to the Cirque Lodge facility in Utah last month. Reports suggested Mendes was battling substance abuse issues.

When she entered rehab, her publicist said: "Eva has been working hard for the past year and made a positive decision to take some much needed time off to attend to some personal issues that, while not critical, she felt deserved some outside professional support."

Magazine Life & Style has confirmed the Latina left the rehab clinic on Wednesday and boarded a flight to Los Angeles.

The Cirque Lodge has become a leading celebrity refuge in recent months - Lindsay Lohan spent last summer there, rocker Richie Sambora also stayed at the facility last year, and actress Kirsten Dunst has reportedly just checked in.
