Struggles of life
Reportedly, Paige Thorne has been going through it for the past few weeks. The former Love Island star confessed to quitting alcohol as she ‘does not feel’ like she is ‘in a safe place.’ Opening up about her mental health, the 25-year-old told The Sun:
I’ve been struggling lately, really struggling with who I am and have not been in a good place.
I’ve given up alcohol, it’s been three weeks now because I’ve realised that I don’t like the person I become when I drink.
So until I’m in a safe and happy place I want to stop drinking.
Paige had a rocky split with two-time Love Islandstar Adam Collard after she chose to be with him instead of potential beau Jacques O’Neill.
Single Paige loves herself
A very single Paige confirmed that she’s happy being single and would like to focus on herself first. Talking about the importance of self-love, Paige said:
You've got to love yourself, otherwise, nobody else will.
I'm happy being single and I'd love to go on a girl's holiday next year.
Meanwhile, the beauty is excited to be celebrating a booze-free Christmas with her family in Swansea this year. Paige revealed:
We'll all be going to my mum's house - it's the last year we'll be keeping this tradition as we'll be travelling next year, so it's very sentimental.
