STANDING BY HER MAN
while news of ant’s prescription drug and alcohol addiction came as a shock to the nation last year, his wife, Lisa, knew all too well what he was going through. after his troubles were thrust back in the limelight last month, a close friend of Lisa’s claims she tried to save ant, 42, before things got out of control.
‘Lisa told me she’s been through hell for the last two years,’ the insider explains. ‘She wasn’t sure if her marriage would survive, but she stood by him to try and save him.’ a tweet liked by Lisa, 41, shows that she feels ant is in ‘self-destruct’ mode. The fan wrote: Feel bad for @lisaamakeup must be so hard watching someone you care about self-destruct before your eyes and not be able to do anything about it… Big love and respect to you Lisa X.
‘It has been so hard for her,’ the friend adds. ‘ant has been in such a bad way that she often feared the situation would be untenable.’
