Bradley Cooper Reflects On 19-Year Sobriety Journey: ‘I’ve Been Very Lucky’ (EXCLUSIVE)

Bradley Cooper is getting candid about his personal journey during an adventure through the wilderness. The “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” actor is one of the latest stars to join survivalist Bear Grylls for a daring excursion on his hit National Geographic series “Running Wild with Bear Grylls: The Challenge.” In Access Hollywood’s exclusive sneak peek at the new season’s premiere episode, Bradley opens up to Bear about his past struggles with drugs and alcohol. “That had nothing to do with fame, though. But I was lucky, you know? I got sober at 29 years old, and you know, I’ve been sober for 19 years. I’ve been very lucky,” he said. “Running Wild with Bear Grylls: The Challenge” premieres July 9 at 9/8c on National Geographic.
