Gwyneth Paltrow reveals health problems after LA fires drove her to drink ‘every night’

Gwyneth Paltrow gave a health update as she revealed that she turned to alcohol amid the devastating Los Angeles fires that began in January.

The Oscar winner, 52 – who recently paid a special tribute to ex Chris Martin for his 48th birthday – got candid about her worsening menopause symptoms as the result of drinking ‘every night.’

During Tuesday’s episode of her Goop podcast, the actress shared: ‘I’m really in the thick of it right now, so I’m all over the place.

‘But I noticed my symptoms are, like, pretty well under control unless, you know, in January when the fires were happening in L.A. I’ve, like, used alcohol for its purpose.’

When the deadly wildfires broke out throughout Southern California on January 7, Paltrow said, ‘I think I drank every night. I was medicating.

‘Normally, now at this point, I don’t drink a lot at all. Maybe I’ll have one drink a week,’ Gwyneth said, but added her symptoms ‘were completely out of control. It was the first time I really noticed, like, causation in that way.’
