After a decades-long struggle with substance abuse, Cara Delevingne is finally sober. In a recent interview, the actress took a trip down memory lane and revealed that she got drunk at her aunt's wedding when she was just 8 years old. The 31-year-old also admitted that she turned to substances to help her through tough times.

While speaking to the Sunday Times, the Suicide Squad actress said, "I got drunk that day. I was eight, what a crazy age to get drunk," before adding, "I used to think drugs and alcohol helped me cope. But they didn’t, they kept me sad and super depressed. I feel like I’ve got my power back and I’m not being controlled by other things."

Cara got a reality check when she saw herself acting erratically after the 2022 Burning Man festival in paparazzi photos. "Listen, I signed up for this, this is my job, it’s what I do. But without that would I be sober now?" she questioned. "I would have never been Sally Bowles in the West End, I’m super proud of that."&nbsp;

Despite being on her sobriety journey, Cara doesn't mind hanging out with people who drink during parties and festivals.&nbsp;

The actress often opens up about feeling "calmer and stable" since quitting alcohol. Back in July 2023, the actress told Elle UK, "It hasn’t [been easy], but there have never been moments when I’m like, 'This isn’t worth it'. It’s been worth every second. I just don’t know what it would take for me to give it up."

Last year, Cara entered rehab and did a 12-step program for drug abuse therapy. "Before I was always into the quick fix of healing, going to a weeklong retreat or to a course for trauma, say, and that helped for a minute, but it didn't ever really get to the nitty-gritty, the deeper stuff. This time I realized that 12-step treatment was the best thing, and it was about not being ashamed of that. The community made a huge difference. The opposite of addiction is connection, and I really found that in 12-step," the actress previously told Vogue.
