'I'm gonna say something for the first time in a long time -- I have not had a drink of alcohol in two-and-a-half years,' she told the hosts of 'CBS This Morning.' 'It was something that I realized just did not serve me and my life.'
Drew Barrymore has rarely hid from discussions of her childhood addictions and journey to sobriety. But earlier this week, the actress and talk show host shared something new -- she's given up alcohol.
"I'm gonna say something for the first time in a long time -- I have not had a drink of alcohol in two-and-a-half years," she told the hosts of"CBS This Morning.""It was something that I realized just did not serve me and my life." Barrymore said she hadn't widely shared that she'd stopped drinking because"it was this quiet, confident journey" that she wanted to keep private.
