Cooper spoke candidly about sobriety and fatherhood in conversation with Bear Grylls.
In a July episode of National Geographic’s “Running Wild with Bear Grylls: The Challenge,” Cooper, 48, opened up about his career, fatherhood and his experience with sobriety while climbing the canyons of Wyoming with the British adventurer.
“I was lucky,” Cooper told Grylls. “I got sober at 29 years old, and I’ve been sober for 19 years. I'm very lucky.” When asked about his experience finding Hollywood success, Cooper said while he’s definitely had some “wild years” when it comes to alcohol and drugs, “it had nothing to do with fame.” He described his rise to stardom as “incremental” before his career-changing role in 2009's"The Hangover," which he said he landed at age 36 with more than 10 years of experience in the industry.One of Cooper’s recent roles, 2018’s “A Star Is Born,” delves into addiction and its relationship to fame. Cooper said his own sobriety journey made it “easier” to tell that story.
“Thank goodness I was at a place in my life where I was at ease with all of that, so I could really let myself go, he told Grylls.
