Amy Robach opened up about her drinking habits while talking about her battle with breast cancer. The 50 year-old TV personality talked about the illness during her iHeartRadio podcast Amy and T.J with co-host and husband T.J Holmes, and explained her relation with alcohol while kicking off a “dry 2024.”
Her explanation comes after she was diagnosed with Stage 2 breast cancer after undergoing an on-air mammogram in October 2013. After getting a double mastectomy and eight rounds of chemotherapy, Amy got done with her final round of treatment in April 2014.
“I knew this past year was an anomaly. It was not a year that hopefully will ever be repeated, but it’s been weighing heavily on me. Not just about the amount of alcohol that I consumed but also what I know about alcohol and cancer – and specifically breast cancer,” she shared,
When T.J asked why she wouldn’t quit alcohol, Amy replied that she’s “never been one to drink to mask pain. I always drink to enhance joy. I love that little extra kick. I like to laugh. It’s probably my favorite thing to do in life. And so if you have that drink in hand, you laugh a little more,” she explained.
Amy concluded: “That has always been a part of what I love about the experience of drinking. It’s just getting that little extra boost, I guess, is the way I would put it.
