Ulrika Jonsson updates fans on major milestone after massive life-changing move
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Ulrika Jonsson is toasting to a significant personal milestone, as the famed ex-Gladiators presenter shares her one-year sobriety journey with fans and reflects on how it has now become her top focus. The popular telly figure, at 57 years young, has openly discussed her former battle with alcohol, recounting times when she would "black out and not recall the night". Yet, she's confessed that drinking served as a temporary respite, dulling her overwhelming anxiety. She previously disclosed, "I drank to kill my feelings of anxiety and my fears of everything,". Fast forward to the present, Ulrika has now waved goodbye to alcohol for an entire year and is determined to keep her eyes on the sober road ahead. Via Instagram, Ulrika invited her followers to observe the stark contrast in her transformation through a before-and-after series showing off her changed appearance. Her initial photograph, tagged as "Sober", captures a radiant, makeup free Ulrika in a casual kitchen selfie, donning a pair of large specs. The subsequent photo presents a very different "drunk" Ulrika – snapped mid-celebration in her bathroom, reports the Mirror. Ulrika dignified her Instagram tribute by saying, "Today I'm marking 1yr of sobriety. No fanfare, no medal, no trophy. The journey goes on. A huge thanks to all those beautiful people who have supported me; understood me; scooped me up and handled me tenderly and without judgement; who nudged me in the right direction; who made me laugh and helped me shed the crippling shame. "Thank you to my kids for their support; for having faith in me after I must have worried them so. For close friends for their patience and belief. My sobriety will continue to be my priority. Turns out it IS possible to teach old dogs new tricks." Her heartfelt post has garnered over 7,000 likes and a wave of supportive comments. Former pop star and now TV personality Kerry Katona wrote: "So bloody proud of you my darling. Miss and love you all the world." Michelle Heaton also chimed in with: "So happy for you darling,". One fan expressed their admiration, saying: "Well done on the first of many anniversaries of sobriety @ulrikajonssonofficial. You have chosen to be and do better and that is a huge transition and not without its challenges so, all props to you and long may it continue for you to reap the rewards." Another follower shared: "Thank you, Ulrika, I'm trying to follow in your footsteps, and posts like this are really affirming. Congratulations on 1 year." One more added: "Congratulations! I'm at 5 years and 5 months and it's still the best thing I ever did,". Ulrika's journey towards sobriety began following a sobering chat with a dear friend. She admitted: "One Saturday morning my best friend, who I love and cherish, called me and basically told me we had spoken the night before and she hadn't understood a word I had said. "She told me I needed help. I knew it came from a place of love. The sense of shame would have been enough to make me want a drink. But not on that occasion. Instead, I sobbed like a child who desperately needed someone to hold her. I was full of despair."

EXCLUSIVE Chris Hughes cosies up to new girlfriend JoJo Siwa as she wins over his parents during a trip to The Cotswolds after the couple finally confirmed their romance
and JoJo Siwa have taken their romance to the next level, as he's introduced her to his parents after travelling to their home in The Cotswolds. The Love Island star, 32, and dancer, 22, finally confirmed earlier this week that they were an item following weeks of speculation, with JoJo admitting she's 'head over heels' for Chris. After travelling to visit Chris' family in the countryside, the couple were seen enjoying a romantic stroll together on Wednesday, their first sighting together since JoJo revealed they'd made their romance official. The pair, who met in the Celebrity Big Brother house in April, held hands as they enjoying a well-deserved break, after JoJo flew to the UK for two London shows, and to promote her new single Bulletproof. A source also told MailOnline that JoJo has already 'charmed' Chris' parents, adding: 'JoJo and Chris are absolutely loved-up. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The Love Island star and dancer finally confirmed earlier this week that they were an item following weeks of speculation, with JoJo admitting she's 'head over heels' for Chris 'Meeting the parents is a big step, but she charmed everyone. Looks like JoJo has traded in her bows for a bit of British countryside bliss!' Despite jetting to Mexico to surprise her for her 22nd birthday last month, proceeding to mark the milestone with the singer and her family in Orlando, and later sharing a steamy bedroom selfie, JoJo played coy about their relationship status until earlier this week. A source also previously told that Chris also seems to have received the seal of approval from JoJo's parents, Jessalynn and Tom, who are not believed to have any qualms with the 10-year age gap. 'Her parents are all in for JoJo's happiness and see Chris as someone very special and are eager to see where it all goes,' the insider said. 'They fully support their daughter's decision. JoJo has grown up before our eyes, and will jump into things with both feet, so her friends aren't surprised that she is acting this way with Chris. 'No one is talking about the age gap or if they are rushing into things. Everyone just wants to see JoJo happy.' JoJo, who reunited with Chris in the UK last week, is so happy she may mention her new man in new music. The insider added: 'She has been thinking of writing songs about her relationship with Chris.' In a recent interview with Sunday Brunch, JoJo fought back tears as she shared how her parents 'think the absolute world of Chris.' She said: 'Him and my Dad are like best friends, Chris was actually telling me this yesterday, they went to the spa together yesterday. 'They're literally best friends, Mom Siwa she absolutely adores him. I love watching her watch us, because I've never seen my mom so happy, and it's... it's... I could cry. 'Honestly, it makes me happy to have everybody act as... it feels like we're a family, it feels like he's been in my family for how ever many years it feels like forever. 'He gets along as well as I do. I think he loves me because of my parents!' On Monday, JoJo finally confirmed that she and Chris were in a relationship, following weeks of speculation. While JoJo has been grilled many times on her relationship status, she had been noticeably coy, simply branding Chris her 'favourite person in the world.' But in an interview with Capital Radio, JoJo confirmed that she and Chris have made their relationship official, and she's started calling him her boyfriend. Speaking in a video for the channel's new series Capital Buzz, the dancer admitted that she's had to explain her viral 'Dream guest on my podcast' moment to Chris. She then added: 'I'm sure it's no secret to people, I am in a lovely relationship with a sweet boy named Christopher Hughes.' In an earlier interview with The Guardian, JoJo gushed about her blossoming romance with Chris. She said: 'It's not platonic any more, and it's been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I'm absolutely head over heels for him and he's the same way.' The Dance Moms star also hit back at speculation that their relationship is a 'PR stunt,' saying: 'Clearly, you've never been around us. I won't ever speak for him, but for me personally, the happiness in my life just radiates off of me right now. 'Literally yesterday, I was massaging my cheeks; I've never [before] been in pain from smiling so much.' On Sunday, Chris sent fans into a frenzy when he shared a steamy bedroom snap with JoJo on Snapchat. The Dance Moms star had been coy when asked about the exact moment she developed feelings for Chris. Speaking during a Q&A with fans at Pineapple Dance Studios on Saturday, she said: 'Loads of different times, loads of different times on different levels. I'm very very happy where we are currently, obviously, I mean I literally smile every single second of every single day now. 'One of personal biggest frustrations in my life now is that I actually don't know, I genuinely don't know, and I've spoken to him about it, I've spoken to my mom about it, I don't know the moment that it,' before snapping her fingers. She added: 'It was never like a light switch happened, it was just... you know what I mean? And so I genuinely don't know! It's serendipity!' Last week, JoJo took to Instagram to reflect on her London shows, admitting she has never felt so 'content and happy,' and described her first few days in the UK as 'the perfect time with perfect people in a perfect place'. Chris had attended JoJo's first show in London the previous night, but the star admitted he couldn't attend Tuesday's performance. Instead, she brought along the orange beanie he'd given her while in the house, after she caught Chris singing one of her hits while she was still asleep. She told the audience: 'This morning I woke up and all I heard was [sings Nobody Can Change me] he was singing, so I figured today I'd bring a little bit of him while I sing this next song.' As the show came to a close, JoJo wept at the crowd's reception, telling her fans that after once feeling she was 'one of the most hated people in the world,' she felt 'so special and so loved'.

But she also admitted that booze offered her a form of escapism as it squashed her anxiety. "I drank to kill my feelings of anxiety and my fears of everything," she previously admitted. But now she's been completely booze-free for a year, and she isn't looking back and is instead focused on remaining sober. Taking to her Instagram page, she shared a before-and-after snap of her journey and how different she looks nowadays. Her first image, which she marked as "Sober", saw a glowing Ulrika pose for a selfie in the kitchen of her home as she went make-up free while rocking a pair of oversized glasses. Meanwhile, her second image saw a "drunk" Ulrika, posing for a wild selfie in her bathroom after a night on the tiles. Captioning her post, Ulrika wrote: "Today I'm marking 1yr of sobriety. No fanfare, no medal, no trophy. The journey goes on. A huge thanks to all those beautiful people who have supported me; understood me; scooped me up and handled me tenderly and without judgement; who nudged me in the right direction; who made me laugh and helped me shed the crippling shame. "Thank you to my kids for their support; for having faith in me after I must have worried them so. For close friends for their patience and belief. My sobriety will continue to be my priority. Turns out it IS possible to teach old dogs new tricks." Her post, which has been liked over 7,000 times, was flooded with praise. Former singer turned telly star Kerry Katona penned: "So bloody proud of you my darling. Miss and love you all the world." "So happy for you darling," added Michelle Heaton.

I'm at 5 years and 5 months and it's still the best thing I ever did," gushed another. Ulrika's decision to get sober came after a rather startling conversation with a friend. She confessed: "One Saturday morning my best friend, who I love and cherish, called me and basically told me we had spoken the night before and she hadn't understood a word I had said. "She told me I needed help. I knew it came from a place of love. The sense of shame would have been enough to make me want a drink. But not on that occasion.
