Actor David Arquette sat with Oprah and opened up to her about his past substance abuse, his affair with a waitress and the day he felt abandoned by his wife, Courteny Cox.
Only a few weeks out of rehab and David Arquette felt the need to set the record straight about what had occurred and a bit about how it began. He claims to have taken his first alcoholic drink at age 4, stolen pot from his dad at age 8 and began heavily drinking at age 12. Wow...
David expressed his deep want to get back together with his wife Courtney Cox but makes it clear that the decision is up to her.
"I want her to be happy," the actor said Thursday on The Oprah Winfrey Show. "If me being the best person I can be doesn't make her happy in a partner, in who she needs, whatever she's looking for, that's still to be answered."
Courtney Cox and David have one child together, Coco (age 6) and separated in the fall of 2010. When discussing how their separation began he stated:
"She said, 'I don't want to be your mother anymore,'" Arquette said, quoting Cox. "I felt really sort of abandoned at that point."
David Arquette is currently living in L.A. by himself and spends a couple days a week with his daughter. Click here to read more on the interview.
