Singer Lulu has opened up on whether she fears that she will relapse after publicly revealing her battle with alcoholism.
The Scottish singer, 76, previously told The Times that she was at her own 65th birthday party when she first disclosed to her sister that she was not in control of her drinking, and later flew to a rehabilitation clinic where she stayed for six weeks and committed to Alcoholics Anonymous, which she still attends.
Lulu told Matt Willis’ On The Mend podcast: “I have a healthy fear of relapse... I have maybe sort of an understanding that it could happen.”
