Pop singer: Angelo Kelly "liked alcohol too much" – now he doesn't drink anymore

Alcohol is an everyday stimulant for many people, but enjoyment can also lead to addiction. Sometimes so fast that some people don't realize it in time. Pop singer Angelo Kelly recognized this danger in himself – and therefore pulled the ripcord. "I don't drink anymore," he explained on the MDR talk show "Riverboat".

On the show, Kelly made no secret of his past drinking and his current abstinence. "An Irishman who doesn't drink anymore. That's something, isn't it?" joked the former Kelly Family member. But when asked why he gave up alcohol, he answered quite seriously: "Because I used to enjoy it too much."

"I haven't touched alcohol for almost a year," said the youngest of the Kelly family. A tragic cautionary tale can be found in the immediate family: father Dan Kelly, head of the very musical "Kelly Family", suffered from depression and alcohol addiction after the early death of his wife. He died in 2002 at the age of 71. His children had spoken openly about their father's problems in TV shows and documentaries in the past.

His daughter Kathy Kelly said in the Vox documentary The Kelly Family: "He started at the bar downstairs, then it went to Notre Dame. I said a rosary there. I always had a cape to make people think I'm a man. Sometimes he was so drunk he couldn't make it up here. Sometimes I waited until three or four in the morning. I knew if I didn't take him to the hotel , then the children will be taken away from him."

As you can see in the photo series: It is not surprising that chocolates or wine desserts contain residues of alcohol. But some foods contain alcohol, even where we don't expect it.
