Steph Davis is still teetotal 5 years after CBB and rehab

Hollyoaks star Stephanie Davis revealed she has now been teetotal for five years.

In 2016, Steph finished as the runner-up on Celebrity Big Brother and started a tumultuous relationship with Jeremy McConnell - who is the father of her son Caben.

Speaking of how she spiraled following her time following CBB, she said: "I started therapy after Celebrity Big Brother in 2016 when my life went to s***. I was so low.

"I was drinking myself to death. I was so mentally abused and physically tortured. I was destroyed. I got dragged to rehab by my mum and dad and they said, 'Please help her because she's going to die.'"

Steph continued: "I'm still in therapy now, and abstain from alcohol and drugs. I don't touch anything because if I do I'll just go until I destroy myself."

The actress also added to new magazine that her son 'was' and 'is her reason to live'.

Now, Steph is in a caring and loving relationship with her boyfriend Joe McKalroy, 25, who she hopes to marry one day.

She revealed that she "can't wait" to have more children in the future and explained that her young son Caben is already keen to have a sibling.

Stephanie spoke about her plans for the relationship, with her saying: "We definitely can't wait to have a family together."

The star has been through a lot recently, after splitting from her ex Oliver Tasker just a couple of months ago.

But now, the brunette beauty can't wipe the huge smile off of her face, thanks to Joe.

Stephanie - who started dating Joe in December - took a quick social media break during her trip to Turkey recently to share some gorgeous photos of the pair together, alongside a meaningful caption.

She wrote about the Yorkshire lad: "My person. I honestly can't even describe the love I have for this one.

"Just to belly laugh every day and be with my best mate who's the love of my life is the best feeling in the world. I Can't wait to explore the world with you."
