After Cara Delevingne Opened Up About That Concerning Airport Video Giving Her A “Wake-Up Call” To Get Help, She Has Reflected On How Her Girlfriend Minke Has Supported Her

In the footage, the British model looks disheveled and distressed as she wanders around without shoes on while repeatedly dropping her phone on the floor. 

And last year, Cara opened up about the truth behind the video in an interview with Vogue — where she admitted that the clip and accompanying paparazzi photos ended up being the wake-up call that she needed to get help for addiction.

In the interview, Cara revealed that she was just 7 years old when she had her first experience with alcohol, and 10 when she started to take prescription pills. 

Referencing the airport footage explicitly, the star explained that she had just returned from Burning Man festival — where she had indulged in drugs and alcohol — when it was captured. She told Vogue: “I hadn’t slept. I was not OK.”

“I would climb anything and jump off stuff… It felt feral. It’s a scary thing to the people around you who love you,” Cara added.

Vogue reported that the video was “a source of overwhelming shame and embarrassment” for Cara, with the star sharing: “It’s heartbreaking because I thought I was having fun, but at some point it was like, OK, I don’t look well. You know, sometimes you need a reality check, so in a way, those pictures were something to be grateful for.”

This prompted Cara to reach out to her loved ones for support as she also joined a 12-step program, with the star saying last year that she had realized she needed to work on “the deeper stuff” to recover fully. 

Cara and the musician, whose real name is Leah Mason, first met more than 20 years ago when they went to boarding school together. They reconnected in 2022, and started dating shortly afterwards. 

Sharing a selection of loved-up videos and photos to honor their relationship, Cara said she was “so lucky to have found the person to ride life’s ups and downs with."

The sweet post has already racked up more than a million likes, as well as thousands of comments — including one from Minke herself, who wrote: “I love you so much smooshy ❤️”

Others admitted that they were just glad to see Cara thriving and looking so happy. One person commented: “So so so so happy for you Cara, be happy and healthy with yourself and with the people that make you feel calm and in peace.”

Somebody else added: “So freaking cute. It's a joy to see you this happy. You deserve that! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️‍🌈”

While another simply wrote: “Happy to see you happy❤️”

“I can’t remember what life was like without your love and I never want to know,” Minke added. “You are extraordinary and I’m literally the luckiest girl in the world. The ups and downs, the really hard times, the growth, the many spiders you’ve had to take outside - That time we got stuck at every motorway stop cause we couldn’t speak italian and work the ticket machine. I wouldn’t change a thing.”
