The former Geordie Shore star, 34, wasn’t happy with the person she’d turned into and found herself knocking back ten drinks per day.
Having hit the booze hard after she’d taken the title of Queen of the Jungle in 2015, she decided to turn her life around.
The reality star had become determined that she wouldn’t end up battling an alcohol problem like her dad John, 62.
Vowing to take a different trajectory, Vicky explained that she wanted a different outcome for herself – one that involved a stable marriage and a good relationship with her future offspring.

Speaking about the self-sabotaging time after the ITV win, she confessed to The Sun: “I can have a couple of glasses of wine and be the life and soul of the party but if I fall over there is no off switch.”
She added: “I want more out of life than what my dad has had; a happy marriage, a good relationship with my kids, I want to be successful.
“I hated myself back then. I work very hard to not become that person.”
