Daisy May Cooper has spoken out about her sobriety journey after giving up alcohol for good seven months ago.
The This Country star, 37, revealed the reason why she decided to quit alcohol in a candid conversation with Katie Price.
Daisy, who has had a dramatic weight loss journey since giving up booze, revealed drinking made her feel ‘destructive to everybody’ on the latest episode of The Katie Price Show podcast:
‘I’m like a f**king Tasmanian devil let loose in a f**king garage. Just like spinning around’, Daisy said.
‘I will just be the most destructive to everybody, but it has been life-changing for me,’ she added.

Daisy went on to say of being hangover-free: ‘That is absolutely blissful, waking up not having hangover anxiety, thinking “who the f**k did I message last night?”
‘Because it will be an ex-boyfriend that I’ll start calling… I got to a point where I couldn’t even trust myself to go out and have a drink, so I was just drinking at home.
‘I thought “if I get papped showing my f***y somewhere”.’
Daisy has been pictured looking incredible at multiple events throughout the year and she’s been open about her weight loss.
The actress – who was snapped flaunting her trimmed down frame at a Legoland launch event in October – went on the keto (low carb, high fat) diet to slim down after lockdown.
However, she confessed she has since been flooded with messages telling her that she’s ‘no longer funny’ since changing her appearance.
Discussing her appearance, the mother-of-two said: ‘I’m so for body positivity but when I was at my biggest I was at my most miserable and I had a massive food addiction.’
Daisy – who split from husband Will Weston in July 2021 after nearly two years of marriage – went on, ‘I wasn’t healthy. I couldn’t breathe when I was walking up the stairs. I was so unhappy.
‘And I’ve had some messages like, “Well, now you’ve lost the weight you’re not funny any more.”

‘What the f**k? Why do women have to be f**king fat to be funny?
‘That makes me so angry. I champion anybody. I think everybody should be happy with their body. But I wasn’t.’
