‘I STILL HAVE BAD DAYS'

Frankie Bridge has been in the public eye for over half her life, shooting to fame as part of pop group S Club Juniors in 2001, aged just 12 years old.

In 2007, she joined girl band The Saturdays alongside fellow S Clubber Rochelle Humes. And it seems as though Frankie, now 31, has it all – having got married to ex-footballer Wayne Bridge, 39, in 2014, and being a mum to their two sons, Parker, six, and four-year-old Carter.

But beneath the dream job and loving family, Frankie has been struggling with depression for most of her career, which culminated in her spending time in hospital in 2011 – and she’s now opened up about her journey in new book, OPEN.

As we sit down to chat to Frankie about OPEN, she tells us how she managed to overcome her lowest point, why she’s happy she didn’t grow up with social media and how she wishes she’d waited until she was older to settle down and have a family…

Hi, Frankie! You and Wayne seem very good together. What’s your secret to a happy marriage?

We’ve been together 10 years and I think you just have to grow with each other, which is easier said than done. You have to make time for each other, with two children and jobs.
