Demi Moore has admitted she was ''addicted'' to her ex-husband Ashton Kutcher and says her former relationship took her away from her three daughters.
The 56-year-old was married to the 41-year-old Two and a Half Men star from 2005 to 2013, and has said her romance with the actor, during which she relapsed in her battle against drug and alcohol addiction, was ''devastating'' on her family.
Speaking in a joint interview with her youngest daughter Tallulah, 25, on Jada Pinkett Smith's Facebook Watch show Red Table Talk, Moore said: ''The addiction and the co-dependency... like my addiction to Ashton - that was probably almost more devastating because it took me seriously away emotionally.''
Moore relapsed during a trip away with Kutcher and admits her then partner wasn't sure if "alcoholism's a thing".
''Ashton said, 'I don't know if alcoholism's a thing. I think it's about moderation.' If I had stayed close to working my program ... I, of course, lived the majority of my adult life sober. I was great sober.''
When asked why she changed her lifestyle, she explained: ''I wanted to be that girl. I made my own story up, that he wanted somebody that he could have wine with that he could do stuff [with].
"He's not the cause of why I opened that door up. I wanted to be something other than who I am. And I gave my power away.''
Moore, who has been sober for nearly eight years now, and her new book, Inside Out: A Memoir, is available now.
