Made in Chelsea’s Hugo Taylor tried to end Millie marriage over ‘humiliating’ problem

-

Millie Mackintosh has spoken about the moment that her alcohol struggles threatened to end her marriage.

The Made In Chelsea star was chatting on This Morning with Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley, and spoke about the moment that made her realise “enough is enough.” “It was making me really unhappy, it was really affecting my life, affecting my relationships, especially with my husband,” she said.

Host Ben referred to an incident Millie had written about earlier in the week, where she drank too much at a wedding and her husband Hugo spoke to her about it. Millie, 35, who has now been sober for more than two and a half years, said in her column for the Daily Mail that Hugo had told her: “If you don’t stop drinking it’s going to end our marriage.”

“It had got to the point where I had taken it too far and I’d really humiliated him,” she said in reply to Ben’s question about the incident. “I was so embarrassed, and it was a couple of days after that when I got to the point where I said ‘enough is enough,’ and that was two and a half years ago.”

Millie has previously updated her fans with her sobriety journey, and has written the book Bad Drunk, which is published today (Thursday 16 January) about her experiences. In an Instagram post marking one year of being sober in 2023, she wrote: “Today I celebrate one year of alcohol free life, my first soberversary! I’ve been open and honest on here about the reasons why I gave up alcohol and how this was focused around improving and protecting my mental health.”

She continued: “It was hard work at first and sometimes it does still feel difficult especially with the social pressure to drink, in our society it almost felt impossible not to, but a big shift happened when I realised I had the power to choose to say no!”

The mum-of-two who is married to former co-star Hugo Taylor spoke about living her “most authentic life in a way that makes me feel my best” and says she now has less anxiety compared to when she was drinking.

“I realised saying no to things that no longer serve me creates space in my life for things that bring me joy, and that’s been a big part of the past year, rediscovering myself, who I am at 34 and what brings me happiness. I care less about what people think of me and I have a lot less anxiety!”

“I’m so proud of myself for making it a whole year, for making a promise to myself and sticking to it, Millie in her 20s or even a few years ago wouldn’t have had the courage to make it this far and I’m so proud of that growth. Tonight I’ll be raising a mocktail to me and how far I’ve come, and how much I’ve changed in the past 365 days!” she added.
