Paparazzi photos of Cara Delevingne wandering around confused went viral two years ago. Since then, the model has been through rehab – and speaks openly about her alcohol addiction.
These were images that shocked her fans and alarmed her family. At the beginning of September 2022, paparazzi filmed Cara Delevingne at Van Nuys Airport in Los Angeles, jumping around visibly confused and fidgety and appearing barely sane. When they saw the footage, many suspected that she was high. Delevingne had just come from the Burning Man festival at the time and probably had no idea that the viral videos of her would become a turning point in her life.
Cara Delevingne talks about her alcohol addiction
“It was a stupid decision to go straight from a festival to work. I should have waited another day. But it would have happened to me anyway, there were a lot of photos where I looked drunk,” the model now says in an interview with the “Sunday Times”. “Would I be sober now without that?” she also asks. Since her rehab in 2022, Delevingne has not drunk alcohol.
Today she knows that alcohol and harder drugs were a way for her to deal with fame and her life. “I always thought drugs and alcohol would help me cope… but they didn’t, they made me sad and super depressed. I feel like I have my power back and am not controlled by other things,” she says today.

She is not thinking about marriage
The first time she drank alcohol was at her aunt’s wedding in 2001. At the time, Delevingne was one of the flower girls. “I got drunk that day. I was eight, what a crazy age to get drunk,” reveals the now 31-year-old.
In an interview with the newspaper, the Brit also spoke about her relationship with friend Leah Mason, who makes music under the stage name Minke. However, the topic of marriage does not play an important role in Delevingne’s life. “I think I’m one of those homosexuals who is annoyed by marriage – why do we have to fit into this very old idea of a contract? I prefer the idea of a spiritual connection. For me, the relationship is the most important thing,” she says.
