Chantelle Houghton admits bulimia

Eating disorder develops after split from husband Preston

Chantelle Houghton is suffering from bulimia.

The Celebrity Big Brother winner says she’s developed the eating disorder since splitting from her Ordinary Boys singer husband.

'It was the real crunch time with me and Preston,' she says.

'I felt so alone. It’s the one thing you can control and at the time I couldn’t control anything.

'It was such a low point in my life. I’m really not that kind of girl but I sort of started to want to be.'

More worryingly, 24-year-old Chantelle admits she still makes herself vomit - and wants to lose more weight.

'I last made myself sick last night and I know I have a problem,' she reveals to New!.

'It’s like I want the food but it makes me feel awful afterwards. I think I’m not very well and I know it needs to stop but I don’t feel strong enough at the moment.

'I don’t want it to get out of control but I’m scared it will.'
