The Celebrity Big Brother star, 26, told a UK newspaper that the only reason she’s not out drinking every night is because she has to go home to her daughter Dixie.
She said: “I think if I didn’t have my daughter I’d be totally off the rails. I’d be out drunk for days on end. I’d just be working, then going out, then doing it all over again.”
Luisasaid that having Dixie, 3, changed her, giving her a reason not to go out every night. “Because of her I have to go home every night when otherwise I wouldn’t.
“I have to be up at 7am to get her up and take her to nursery. So having a daughter keeps me steady and motivates me to work harder. Motherhood has changed me dramatically.”
Luisa, who first rose to fame as a contestant on The Apprentice, revealed how she was separated from Dixie’s father by the time she was born, leaving her struggling as a single parent.
She said: “I went back to work two days after giving birth because I had to. I used to work at my dining room table and lie her on the changing mat. She’d be screaming for a feed but I’d be thinking ‘S*** if I don’t do this for my customer…’
“It was tough to be a mum and run a pretty new business and rely on mysef.”

As well as having to struggle with being a single parent juggling a new business, Luisa also admitted to suffering from post-natal depression, saying: “I found becoming a mum really tough.”
While she and Dixie’s father are not together, Luisa said that they share custody of her, with her spending half her time with her dad.
However, this doesn’t stop people from slamming her when she goes on a night out.
Luisa said: “There are plenty of people who think I’m a terrible mum because I’m going out to work and partying. But you can judge your parenting by your children and my daughter is a very well-rounded three-year-old and that’s all I care about.”
