Looking at the singer now, it’s hard to believe that Sting was once a big fan of alcohol and hallucinogenic substances. And yet, at one point in his life, this had indeed been the case. Sting’s constant binges even led to his first wife leaving him, taking their two children with her. Following that, the performer decided to begin a new life. Soon after, his songs took various charts by storm, and his discs went platinum. Today Sting is an exemplary husband and father of six children.
