Now, Steph has opened up about her traumatic experience during her relationship with her ex-boyfriend and admitted that she's an alcoholic. In an interview with OK! magazine, she said: "I’m an alcoholic. Going to rehab saved my life.

"I took an overdose while I was still with Jeremy. I was taken to hospital and the paps were outside when I left so now I think Jeremy told them we were there.

"After we split up there were several times when I thought about killing myself."

The 24-year-old actress went on to admit that she began drinking "more and more" when she was in a relationship with Jez to "block out how awful the relationship was".

Steph revealed that she didn't realise she has a "serious problem" because she didn't "fit the stereotype" of what she though an alcoholic was.

Following after splitting with the father of her son, the former Hollyoaks actress admitted: "I was drinking heavily and was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder after I split up with Jeremy, because of everything I had been through while we were together."

She went on to drink alcohol most days until she would "black out," however she decided enough was enough after realising she didn't want to die for her son Caben.

The yummy mummy has proudly revealed that she's 90 days sober: "Rehab has taught me that I have to give up alcohol for good. I no longer need booze to help me cope."

Steph was allegedly sacked from Hollyoaks after she reportedly arrived on set drunk. Then back in 2016 when she was pregnant with Caben, the mum-of-one was pictured drinking alcohol. There was even more alcohol related drama for Steph last year after she revealed she's giving up alcohol because it "ruins my life".

It seems she's finally won the battle over booze, go Steph!

The mum-of-one, who was recently cleared of attacking her ex-boyfriend, has spoken out and Jeremy McConnell's new girlfriend and said she thinks "it's all made up to get to me."

Eek!
