In an interview with a popular, In Style, the 25-year-old model and entrepreneur opened up on her alcoholism and why she quit drinking, after her doctor showed her the effect of alcohol on her brain.
Hadid said, “I have done my fair share of drinking,” she added, “I loved alcohol and it got to the point where even I started to, you know, cancel nights out that I felt like I wouldn’t be able to control myself.”
Later she became co-founder and partner of Kin Euphorics in September, a non-alcoholic beverage brand after she noticed the benefits and good impact it had on her health.
She said, “I don’t feel the need [to drink alcohol] because I know how it will affect me at 3 in the morning when I wake up with horrible anxiety thinking about that one thing I said five years ago when I graduated high school,” she further said, “There’s just this never-ending effect of, essentially, you know, pain and stress over those few drinks that didn’t really do much, you know?” as quoted by people.com
