Troubled Danniella Westbrook has reportedly been left homeless after failing to make payments on her home.

The former EastEnders actress is now staying “here, there and everywhere” according to an insider.

Thankfully, those closest to the star have stepped in to help while she looks for a new place to live.

“She’s been busy viewing but hasn’t found her new home,” a source told the Daily Star.

“Obviously timing isn’t great with it being so close to Christmas but she isn’t rushing into anything and is staying with friends and family over the festive period.

“Danniella now has a whole new team around her after spending a lot of 2016 surrounded by toxic people."

Danniella, 43, has had a difficult few months after being struck down with septicaemia in August, leaving her hospitalised for weeks.

She was also left in agony when a cosmetic dental surgery was botched, ruining her teeth.

A rep for the former Celebrity Big Brother housemate told the Daily Star that Danniella is currently “viewing new homes around Liverpool, but is yet to find a suitable property."

Just weeks before being forced to leave her home, Danniella was reportedly required to return her leased car, leaving her without transport.

The drama comes just days after Danniella’s son Kai, 20, opened up about finding his mother having a fit after a cocaine overdose when he was just four years old.

“When I was little, I found Mum having a fit after an overdose and the memory is vivid,” he told The Sun.

“I still have flashbacks. I’ve been scared Mum would die so many times.”

“Do I know Mum’s not going to die? I can’t guarantee it,” he added. “But she’s a fighter. She wants to get better, but a lot of people have lost confidence in her.”

The mum-of-two reportedly blew £250,000 on cocaine during the height of her addiction.

Danniella recently opened up about how she fell into a deep depression following her stint in the CBB house last January and her recent break up with boyfriend George Arnold.

“I spiralled into a depression after Big Brother,” she said on This Morning last month. “I had the best time in there. I came out so excited to get back on my feet.

“This happened and I haven’t been able to work. This has spiralled me into a depression, and I split from my boyfriend too.”

The star admitted that she got so low, she tried to intentionally take an overdose.

“I tried to overdose a lot when George walked out,” she continued. ““I felt like I’d let everybody down. I couldn’t earn money, I couldn’t do the jobs that were being offered to me, that I’d wanted for years.”
