Tara Palmer-Tomkinson: My nose will drop off

Star fears the consequences of ever taking drugs again

Tara Palmer-Tomkinson

Fame Academy star Tara Palmer-Tomkinson has vowed never to take drugs again — as she fears her hooter will fall off.

The 35-year-old had her collapsed nose reconstructed after kicking a cocaine habit and doesn't want to cause any more damage to her face.

'If I did fall off the wagon you'd be able to tell because if a line of cocaine should go up my nose, then within an hour it will come off,' she admits in The Sun.

Tara has frequently spoken of the damage her past cocaine addiction has caused.

'I've given myself a nose job because of all the cocaine I shoved up it,' she has said. 'My cartilage is gone. I just have fresh air.

'I was a dead woman walking. I needed help, or I knew I was going to die.'
