Linda Robson begged strangers on street to buy her vodka during crippling booze battle

Loose Women star Linda Robson has opened up about her previous battle with alcohol, confessing that she once begged strangers on the street to but her vodka during the height of her addiction.

Birds Of A Feather actress Linda, 64, was so hell bent on keeping her battle with alcohol a secret, that she would stop strangers on the street and beg them to go into her local corner shop to purchase the booze for her.

Things got so bad for Linda that her loved-ones, as well as her Loose Women co-stars, got her the help she needed at a time when she was at rock bottom by sending her to The Priory - a well known rehabilitation centre for those living with addictions.
