The American actor, the Oscar winner and the younger brother of Ben Affleck, who is now being treated for alcoholism, described the dependence of his older brother.

43-year-old Casey Affleck gave a frank interview with Entertainment Tonight.

In an interview, the actor told of his brother's difficult struggle with alcoholic addiction.

"Ben is addicted, he is an alcoholic. Most of my grandfathers are alcoholics. Our father is an alcoholic, the most terrible of them all, but he's been around 30 years. I do not drink six years. Ben tries to fix everything, and it is not easy for him. But he has the resources and time, fortunately, to get qualified help, "- admitted Casey.

According to Casey, Ben is diligently treated for the sake of children and his ex-wife, who insisted that he undergo a course of rehabilitation in the clinic.

"Alcohol affects not only the person himself, but also his entire family. Therefore, I think that for the sake of their children and their mothers, and in particular for himself, he is continuously working on himself, "said Ben Affleck's brother.

However, despite the problems with alcohol and tender feelings for eks-wife Jennifer Garner, Ben Affleck continues to organize his personal life. Recently, a Hollywood actor was caught on a date with a young model of Playboy Shawna Sexton.
