Glee: Supporting a lover after rehab

As one of TV’s most popular shows, Glee has a place in all of our hearts – especially in the case of its stars Lea Michele and Cory Monteith. However, the path of love never seems to run smoothly (especially on the bumpy road to Hollywood) – but the Glee actors have never relented in their support for one another, proving their love was still strong by attending the 12th Annual Chrysalis Butterfly Ball in Brentwood, California, last Saturday.

Their sighting marked Cory’s first red carpet appearance since being in rehab for substance abuse – and while it hasn’t been easy for the couple, the duo looked to be in high spirits at the event.
While that story might seem a million miles away from reality, what would YOU do if you were in Lea’s shoes?

It’ll never happen to me

That’s what we all think – right? Come on, we’re nowhere near the likes of the rich and famous who can afford to be extravagant and wild more times than they care to admit – but news flash! They’re just like us. Yep, they’re human too.

I once had to watch someone I cared about descend into what felt like a bottomless and frightening downward spiral, and they were in complete denial of their symptoms. But the first and last thing you can do is to give them your unwavering support – that is, if you’re strong enough to stick by them. Whilst I had no idea what I was letting myself in for, I was prepared to take on the challenges.

From sharing their highs to supporting their lows, watch your steps carefully. You’re bound to stumble and fall, but with the right amount of patience and love, you’ll overcome any hardships with both your lover and yourself coming out smiling on the other side – just as Lea and Cory have done.
