Caprice Bourret Slams
Drugs Stories
US-born model Caprice
Bourret has further
blasted claims she was
recently treated for drug
addiction and
depression in rehab,
insisting she doesn't
even take painkillers.
Last week a British
newspaper reported the
blonde beauty had
checked into London's
The Priory, when it
emerged she was
actually enjoying a
skiing vacation with her
boyfriend in South
Africa.
The 35-year-old says,
"It's really quite
extraordinary. For 24
hours, the press
attacked me and spread
the story I'd been in
rehab after overdosing
on painkillers. It was
quite impossible for me
to have been in hospital
when I was flying out of
South Africa to Paris. I
have never been in
rehab. I have never
done drugs, apart from
when I was 19, when I
tried magic mushrooms,
which was horrible and
once I had a Quaalude. I
am so against drugs. I
don't think I've
swallowed a painkiller
since I had my tonsils
out at 14. I don't even
take aspirin."
