AceShowbiz - Gwyneth Paltrow's husband Brad Falchuk helped the actress through an "emotional" MDMA trip while on vacation in Mexico.
The "Avengers: Endgame" star revealed the incident during the first episode of her six-part Netflix series, "The Goop Lab", during a segment on the healing benefits of psychedelic drugs.
Discussing her own experience of psychedelics, the 47-year-old confessed she was compelled to try the drug - referred to in some forms as Molly or Ecstasy - after uncovering a case study where it helped one man with his post-traumatic stress disorder.
"I never thought of MDMA as a psychedelic and when I took it, I didn't hallucinate," she said. "It wasn't a rave, it was actually very, very emotional and I was with my then-boyfriend, who's now my husband, and he's a very empathetic, very profoundly wise person and he was able to help me through it."
She added, "It does make me think there's so much to unearth if I did it (for therapy purposes)."
The new series, which focuses on "unregulated" wellness treatments, is set to premiere on Netflix on January 24, 2020.
