Cara Delevingne on her struggles with alcohol addition: 'Wasn't sustainable'
Cara Delevingne has revealed her struggles with alcohol and substance abuse.
English model, actress, and singer Cara Delevingne has revealed that she is four months sober and sought treatment for her alcohol addiction in 2022. She made the revelation while speaking in Vogue's April cover story. She said her lifestyle was not sustainable and talked about the photos that emerged of her in which she was spotted looking dishevelled. She admitted that while at the time she thought she was having fun, she later realised she wasn't looking well at all in the pictures that went viral. “I hadn’t slept. I was not okay. It’s heartbreaking because I thought I was having fun, but at some point it was like, Okay, I don’t look well. You know, sometimes you need a reality check, so in a way those pictures were something to be grateful for." Delevingne told Vogue.
She added, "All I knew is that if I was continuing to go down the road I was, either I'd end up dead or doing something really, really stupid. That was scary."
