She told the broadcaster back in February: “Last year, it was an awful year. I found out my mum was terminally ill, then that my husband at the time was cheating on me again.

“My horse died in front of my house. In South Africa I was held at gun point with my children Junior and Princess.

“Then [Harvey] had a kidnap threat again. And then I was divorcing my husband.

“I was self medicating on a drug, cocaine, I’m not proud of it.

“I’ve never been up that track before, I went to the doctor and it was the hardest thing ever to say ‘I need help, I’m at breaking point’.”
