During the chat, the couple talked about how Luli was able to kick her addiction to Vyvanse, a drug used to treat Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The actor’s wife, who is on air, currently in the telenovela rerun Tropical paradisesaid many people don’t pay attention to the risks and, as a result, could end up becoming addicted.

“Everything has a price and the price of medicines is very high. I tell everyone, be careful because it is very attractive,” he said.

Maria Luiza also told the podcast that she had the actor’s help in overcoming her addiction. “It’s very difficult to quit drugs because you start to identify your personality with the drugs,” she revealed. She said her mother also helped her a lot during the process. “I couldn’t be alone. My mother had to stop working for about four months to stay home with me,” she told the publication.

Maria Luiza and Paulo Vilhena have been together since 2019 and got married in June this year. Shortly after, in August, the couple had Manoela, Paulinho’s first daughter, who is 44 years old.
