Ashley Judd has praised her husband for helping her to overcome a bout of depression earlier this year. The actress checked into the Shades Of Hope Treatment Center in Buffalo Gap, Texas, in February while suffering from depression and an eating disorder, and completed a 47-day program to aid her recovery.

She's now confident she's beaten the illness, saying, "I have so many more tools now. My self-care is really good." And she thanks her husband, racing driver Dario Franchitti, for standing by her during the treatment: "He is so supportive in just the right way. Pitch-perfect."
