She said: ‘There were horrible moments I had to relive. But I survived. I mean, who the hell can survive that? Me. I’m glad about that, because now I’m back again.
‘I try to hang myself, pass out and I’m fine. I make light of it now, but it wasn’t fun at the time. And I’ve had these car accidents that should have killed me.’
In 2022, Katie revealed that prior to a stint at the Priory Psychiatry, she had tried to take her own life.
She said: ‘I tried to kill myself before I ended up in the Priory. The only reason I didn’t was because of my kids. So if my children weren’t here, I wouldn’t be here today.’
