In this deeply personal and powerful conversation, Belinda sits down with Davey Lloyd, who you might recognize from The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise. But today’s episode, we’re talking about much more than reality TV.
For nearly two decades, drugs, drinking, and the “tradie party boy” lifestyle became his mask — the confidence to be the fun one, the life of the party — all while unconsciously carrying pain underneath it all.
Davey opens up about his third cocaine-related seizure that left him clinically dead before paramedics brought him back to life. This is not a polished comeback story. It’s a real, vulnerable, and courageous look at what it takes to take accountability, get honest with yourself, and do what it takes to get sober.
Inside this episode:
If you’ve ever battled addiction, loved someone who has, or just needed proof that it’s never too late to change, this episode will stay with you long after you listen.
Now almost two years sober, Davey shares: “Sobriety gave me peace. My life has gone from chaos to clarity.”
