Cara Delevingne sees more similarities between herself and her now-sober mother Pandora as she gets older.
The 31-year-old supermodel is two years clean after ditching drink and drugs, while her mother, 65, also suffered her addiction issues over the years.
Cara told The Sunday Times about how she’s changed her view of their bond: “I do think the older I get, the more I see how similar me and my mother are. “She has managed to survive through so much. She’s whip smart.
“I think there are really beautiful things about my mother and really sad things too. It makes the whole situation complex.
“When I was younger I talked about it freely because I didn’t really understand it. But it affected me, so I felt like it was my right to talk about it. I feel bad about that.”
Cara added when asked if she follows the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous: “I like meetings, I go to them when I can. Some people would say I don’t go to them enough.
“But I’m doing it my way and it’s working for me. Everyone’s different. You can go in a million times and it doesn’t work, some people go in once and walk out. Some do it who don’t need it.”
