    Danniella Westbrook makes heartbreaking homeless confession as she plans TV return

    Danniella Westbrook revealed she once lived in her car and spoke candidly about the heartbreaking chapter of her life, but says she is now eyeing up a reality a TV comeback10:03, 04 Sep 2025Updated 10:05, 04 Sep 2025Danniella spoke candidly about her past(Image: Getty Images)Danniella Westbrook has opened up about the darkest moments in her life, including a shocking spell of homelessness, as she sets her sights on a major TV comeback.The former EastEnders actress, 51, revealed she is keen to return to reality TV, with her sights firmly set on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! All Stars.Speaking exclusively to Daily Star in collaboration with casino.org, she told us she would “love” to do the next series of ITV All Stars.The actress shared: “I would love to go back in now that I’m in a different place and mindset. I was a bit of a diva, a bit of a princess, very spoilt when I went in there before. But now I’ve gone through everything that I’ve been through, I think it’d be very different. At the end of the day, I’ve lived in my car, so why can’t I live in the jungle again?”Danniella would love to go on All Stars(Image: BBC)The actress first entered the Australian jungle back in 2003, during the third series of I’m A Celeb, where she became known for her fiery personality and diva-like behaviour. Sharing camp with the likes of John Lydon, Kerry Katona and Lord Brocket, her stint was a memorable one, but Danniella admits she was far from prepared for the harsh realities of jungle life.Reflecting on that period, she said she now sees her previous behaviour in a different light. “I was young and spoilt, I didn’t have the life experience I have now. I think I’d approach it very differently today.”The star has been through tough times(Image: GC Images)Since her time in the spotlight, Danniella has endured very public struggles with addiction, health issues and financial troubles. Her most harrowing revelation, however, is that she once found herself without a roof over her head. “I’ve lived in my car,” she bravely admitted, making it clear she knows what true survival really means.Article continues belowDespite the difficulties, the star is determined to keep moving forward and is eyeing more TV opportunities to show fans a new side to herself.“Or I’d even love to do Big Brother again. That was so much fun,” she added, hinting at another possible return to reality TV.Want all the biggest Showbiz and TV news straight to your inbox? Sign up for our free Daily Star Showbiz newsletter.

The images, albeit blurry, show a number of golden-coloured light orbs hovering in the sky before splitting to show more.She wrote: “I had an experience last night in North Pembrokeshire. Golden sun sized orbs showed up over the sea horizon.”They appeared on over 10 different occasions throughout the evening, moving, hovering, changing formation and size and shape and splitting into more orbs, then merging.Melinda Messenger was adamant the lights were not man made(Image: ExpressStar)”My old phone camera does not do justice to what I saw.”She continued: “They weren’t plane or boat lights, and were not a man made light show nor drones, starlink or a meteor shower nor flares.”In the first video three golden orbs the size of the sun appeared, the second video is another sighting in the same location when it was darker.Melinda was warned not to fall for any ‘conspiracy'”You might need to zoom in to see them. The dogs started barking like crazy.”I took a few screenshots and enhanced some of them to try and see more clearly what was there.”The statement went on: “What my camera didn’t pick up was how much they separated into different orbs, how distinct they were and that some of them changed into star cross shapes in one of the sightings.”The intensity of the light was profound.”Melinda said the light orbs split into more and were seen numerous times during the evening(Image: Instagram)Followers found it amazing, with The Wanted star Siva Kaneswaran commenting: “Wow Melinda! I think they showed themselves to you because you’re open to it. Inspiring stuff!”Someone else said: “That’s totally amazing. Very envious of that spectacular sight.”Another said: “We are definitely not alone.”Meanwhile, others tried to explain the lights away, suggesting they were just normal street or building lights photographed from a long way away, making them blur and distort due to the limitations of a phone camera.”Don’t get involved in all these conspiracy theories in these people commenting,” one person said. “It might get a few comments on the post but in the long run it will result in you being humiliated.”Article continues belowWant all the biggest Showbiz and TV news straight to your inbox?
