Danniella Westbrook has opened up about her "year from hell" following the news that she is living in sheltered accommodation. The former EastEnders star, 41, was making her first televised appearance since her confession and went on This Morning to open up about her current situation. "I think that this year has been the worse year that I've ever had in my life, to lose one thing after another after another," she told show hosts Phillip Schofield and Amanda Holden. Explaining how the local council helped her and her two teenage children Kai and Jody, Danniella said: "They got us in somewhere within two weeks, in sheltered accommodation which is like a bedsit, which is where we are now."

The star also opened up about how she has been relying on her friends for help, and that she receives "a small amount of money" from her daughter's father. "I've been really very lucky with friends of mine that supply me with a food delivery to the house to help us out," said Danniella. "And I have been to food banks this year because we haven't had any money. It's been very difficult. "Friends have pulled together and one of them has lent me a little car to drive so I can get the kids to school."
