Description
After excelling as a dancer and snowboarder, Hayley Holt became a regular and popular face on our TV screens. Professional success was offset by alcoholism and losing a child in late pregnancy before she battled back. She chats to Simon about facing her demons, her ADHD diagnosis, her brush with politics - and the joys of family life with her partner and baby son, Raven. Hayley's autobiography, Second Chances, is out now. WARNING: This podcast covers topics that may be upsetting, including miscarriage, stillbirth and alcoholism. A range of organisations can help.
