addiction recovery ebulletin Amber Valletta sober 2
Jan. 13, 2020 – In an interview with Porter magazine, Valletta talked about going public with her addiction at a 2014 MindBodyGreen event, admitting of the speech she gave at the invite-only event, “I didn’t think anyone would see.” However, her powerful story — in which the Vogue cover star revealed she would show up at photo shoots drunk and high — went viral.
“I didn’t have a problem when I was out using, if you saw me high or drunk,” said Valletta, who is also an actress (on TV’s Revenge as well as in films including Hitch and What Lies Beneath), of the years during which she was using. “So why would I be ashamed of being clean and saying: I have a disease that I can’t control?”
She continued, “Only by being sober do I have any chance of survival. Left to my own devices, I guarantee you no matter how much I love life, my family, if I take a drink or any of my drugs of choice, I’ll be dead. I’ll ruin everything.”
