She wrote: "I continue to share my story because by sharing I might just help the still suffering addict!

"I’m just over 14 months, looking back at this person, I see fear, sadness, confusion, pain, and as that month went on I see hope, light, fight, and a desire to live."

She added: "Whether you are the addict or a loved one of the addict, there is hope! If I can do it so can you! I follow a 12 step program, regularly attend my meetings and help others to achieve sobriety like I have.

"I have a life now I could never have imagined, a life without fear! Drop a message of your journey ! Let’s all help each other."

Michelle's famous friends and supportive 306K followers were quick to celebrate her incredible milestone.

"Well done hunny proud of you," wrote Danielle Lloyd, with Denise Welch adding five clapping emojis.

In April, Michelle spoke out on her journey to overcoming her alcohol addiction in a brave interview.


The star, who recently enjoyed her first family holiday without booze, opened up on in an emotional interview with Closer magazine, sharing that at her "lowest point, I'd wake up in the morning and pray for someone to help me or I just wanted to die."

She continued: “I’d given up on my life and I didn’t care about losing my family or friends, it was only about where the next drink was coming from. My skin was grey, I was exhausted and my body was completely unrecognisable and bloated.

“Rehab saved my life – after my medical examination there, they told me I’d have been dead within days if I hadn’t got help."
