Sophie Anderton blew a 10 million-pound fortune by snorting up to eight grams of cocaine a day for 13 years, it has been revealed.

The 36-year-old, who has been clean since 2009, admitted that she is afraid that the spotlight on Big Brother would possibly trigger her to relapse on her drugs addiction.

Anderton told Channel 5 house that that it was a big risk for her to sign up for the show as she has happy being anonymous for the past three years, the Daily Express reported.

She said that she regrets blowing so much money on drugs.

Rehab cost her 55,000 pounds and therapy 20,000 pounds, over the years, but neither made any difference.
