Ex-Eastenders star seeks peace

-

FORMER EastEnders actress Danniella Westbrook has upped sticks and moved to the Welsh countrysid­e in a bid to escape from it all.

Following a public spat with former partner and East 17 singer Brian Harvey, Danniella has taken to Instagram to share photos of herself in Aberystwyt­h.

And while enjoying the sights and sounds of the coastal town, the 47-year-old shared videos of the landscape as she enjoyed a morning jog. Writing on social media, Danniella told fans: “Life’s good, soul will be fed and spirituall­y topped up in no time.”

Danniella’s rep told The Mirror: “Danniella has always enjoyed the countrysid­e, which is why she’s back permanentl­y as it’s what’s best to continue on the road of recovery. The Welsh gave her a warm welcome and she’s happy there. As they say, a little bit of country life is good for the soul.”

The star left fans worried earlier this week after she shared a post on Instagram saying she “needs time to breathe”.

The statement from her manager read: “On behalf of Danniella’s management we have recommende­d Danniella only keeps contact with close friends and family. Her messages, comments and emails have been full of questions as well as press trying to get informatio­n.”

“Danniella will continue to better herself mentally and physically. And she is still going to keep you updated on her journey. Keep safe, keep happy and keep surviving.”
