'I felt like I could take on the world'

The past 12 months have been an emotional rollercoaster for Danielle Lloyd. As well as being diagnosed with endometriosis and enduring a “horrendous” cancer scare, the model and TV star, 39, was advised she may have to undergo a hysterectomy, dashing her hopes of one day having another baby.

But, the mum-of-five tells new she feels she can “take on the world”, after a stint on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins (arguably the most gruelling reality show on TV) gave her a “brand new perspective” and transformed her into a “more positive person”.

Here, Danielle – who has three boys, Archie, 13, Harry, 12, and George, 10, from a previous relationship and son Ronnie, six, and daughter Autumn, 22 months, with electrician husband Michael O’Neill – reveals why the show made her both physically and mentally stronger and admits she’s come to terms with the fact she can’t have any more children.

The former Miss England also opens up on the friendship she’s forged with co-star and controversial MP Matt Hancock and has her say on Coleen Rooney’s recent Vogue cover.

Hi Danielle! How would you sum up your Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins experience?
