Hathaway admitted that abstaining from alcohol was a pivotal part of her personal transformation.

"So I stopped arguing with it," she concluded. Hathaway highlighted the positive changes she's experienced since abstaining from alcohol, noting that for her, it was a catalyst for personal growth.

"Everything is better," the 41 year old remarked, attributing her decision to her dislike for "wallowing" and a desire to be more present in her life.

"My last hangover lasted for five days," Anne disclosed, highlighting the toll excessive drinking took on her.

Also, expressed her intention to resume drinking when circumstances permit but emphasized that her priority is her child's welfare.
