The star was clearly feeling better a few days later, however, as she revealed that she'd been to the gym – and shared its impact on her mental health.

She went on: "I so didn't want to go to the gym today as I'm so tired but I did and I feel so much better just doing the treadmill for an hour and having a chat with the girls. It's taken me a long time to really enjoy exercise but it does make me able to cope better.
