Weakest Link host says doctors gave her six weeks to live
Tuesday, 7 August 2007
Anne Robinson reveals she almost died due to her alcoholism.
The Weakest Link star, 62, says she got hooked on booze while working as a reporter on a Sunday newspaper.
‘At the very end of my drink problem, around 1977, I weighed about 6st,’ she tells Piers Morgan on the BBC1 show You Can’t Fire Me I’m Famous.
‘Doctors gave me sex weeks to live. I lived in a haze and couldn’t quite understand how it happened to me. But I couldn’t stop drinking.’
Anne was forced to quit her reporting job because of the addiction, but hasn't touched a drop since 1978.
