The 55-year-old beauty was seen knocking back a glass of her Delola Margarita cocktail in a video on her Instagram page and according to a source, she “needed” the liquid courage before meeting up with her estranged hubby on Sept. 4.

“The fact she needed booze in her belly before her latest meeting with Ben kind of says it all,” spills an insider. “She appears to be self-medicating and unable to handle the raw reality of this divorce without some type of pick-me-up.

“She used to only drink socially, but now it’s a bigger part of her daily routine and the cocktails she mixes up are apparently lethally strong.”
