Celebrity fashion designer and film director, Tom Ford who is loved by A-list entertainers and fashion editors alike, has admited that life wasn't always so simple. The father of 2 sons, admits his drinking spiralled 'out of control' when he was in his 40s, and his problems escalated when he left Gucci in 2004. Speaking in a candid interview with ES Magazine, he stated:
'I became quite depressed. When you're depressed you drink more and when you drink more you get more depressed. And along with the drinks there were drugs. And when you have that kind of high you also have that kind of low.
And I didn't have a child and I didn't have - you know for a couple of years - a career. My life... I honestly don't think I'd be alive if I hadn't stopped drinking.'
The 53-year old welcomed his firstborn son through in-vitro fertilization and a surrogate in 2012 and two-year son with his longterm partner, Richard Buckley.
