Patricia Heaton's Turning Point: How a 'Mortifying' Family Night Led the Sitcom Star to Sobriety
Patricia Heaton says a night with her children where her behavior left her "mortified" was a sign from God to stop drinking. The Everybody Loves Raymond star, 68, told Women's World that while struggling with an empty nest and no job right before the pandemic, she felt rudderless. "The things that had always anchored me my family and my work were gone. I started thinking, 'What am I supposed to do today?'" said Heaton, who shares four sons, Samuel, John, Joseph and Daniel, with husband David Hunt.
