Jason Bateman’s decision to get sober was a smart one. The ‘SmartLess’ host recently reflected on his decade-long binge of partying with alcohol and drugs, which began in the ‘90s as his career stalled following his years as a child star on ‘Little House on the Prairie’ and ‘The Hogan Family.’ “Fortunately, I was living at a time without social media and camera phones,” Jason told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published Feb. 18, “so I got away with a lot, but it was definitely close a few times.” However, after he found more steady work on ‘Arrested Development’ in 2003, Jason and his wife Amanda Anka—who tied the knot in 2001—discussed how his rocky lifestyle had to end. “Amanda and I definitely had a few negotiations about the point at which the [partying] spigot was going to completely turn off,” he continued. “She’d be like, ‘This drip, drip, drip is annoyingly unpredictable, Jason.’” The 57-year-old added, “She didn’t demand that I completely absolve, but that was sort of the back-and-forth, and I was like, well, I feel like my [sobriety] ETA is six months away, but if I could land this plane now, it would alleviate a lot of the tension, so let’s just f–king do it.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/news/1428704/jason-bateman-on-sobriety-relationship-with-wife-amanda-anka
