Michelle Heaton was a Liberty X singer with a husband, two kids, and a two-litre vodka bottle on repeat order from Amazon. By the end she was drinking neat vodka at seven in the morning, being sick, then drinking again. Her liver readings were so high doctors couldn't understand how she was still alive.
Her friend Katie Price showed up and asked one question: do you want what I've got? Forty eight hours later Michelle was in the Priory. She had a seizure on the way in.
In this conversation Michelle and Dave talk about drinking against your will, the Priory detox ward with bars on the windows, the four months of psychosis before she asked for help, and what nine months of sobriety has given back.
For anyone who can't stop and is too scared to say it out loud.
