Embracing success quite early often leaves deep scars. There are many celebrities who dealt with the lights when they were children and who had a complicated adolescence due to the difficulty of assimilating a hatching that due to age did not touch them and that ends up conditioning their lives. One of them is the actress Drew Barrymore, who has just turned 46 years old and of whom we can affirm without mistake that she has been linked to fame all her life. The interpreter became known thanks to her role as Gertie in the remembered Steven Spielberg film ET the alien when he was only 7 years old, but with only 2 years he had already debuted as a model.
His train of life from that moment accelerated in such a way that Barrymore ended up going astray with a adolescence plagued by bad habits. First it was alcohol, with only 11 years old, and with 12 years came the consumption of drugs that was about to blow up his entire future into the air. To this had to be added the instability of his home, with a father, John Drew Barrymore, who was an alcoholic and very violent, and a young mother, Jaid, who also served as a manager but ended up surpassing that responsibility.
The interpreter has been divorced three times, is the mother of two girls and has redirected her life
The actress has confessed on occasion that she was very clear that she would not live beyond the age of 25, although luckily she has been able to retrace her steps and finally control her life. We are talking about a Barrymore who left home at the age of 14 and who before reaching the age of 25 had already divorced a couple of times (the first marriage with the owner of a bar lasted 39 days and the second with the actor Tom Green, 163).
The actress has now recalled one of her particular hells on the program The Howard Stern Show revealing the moment when her mother decided to admit her to a psychiatric center when she was only 13 years old. It was a moment when she admits that she was not in control of her life: “I went to nightclubs, skipped school, and sometimes stole my mother’s car … it was out of control,” she said in the space, confessing that he had even thought of taking his own life. For this reason her mother had to make a drastic decision: “I was in a place called Van Nuys Psychiatric for a year and a half. You couldn’t waste time there, if you did they would transfer you to a padded room or hold you on a stretcher ”.
The presenter Howard Stern questioned him about his mother and the actress’s confession was devastating: “I think he created a monster and did not know what to do with the monster.” According to the interpreter of Charlie’s Angels She currently has a good relationship with her mother and has forgiven her for admitting her to the center as she admits she was out of control. In fact, Barrymore herself revealed that she has spent more than 30 years in therapy. Currently, the actress is the mother of two girls: “It is difficult and I raise my daughters in a much more traditional and protective way. It is a great antithesis of my education ”, he also assured in the same program. Both girls, Frankie, who looks a lot like her when she was little, and Olive, are the result of her relationship with Will Kopelman, whom she divorced in August 2016 although they have a good relationship.
