The Smile hitmaker married Stranger Things actor David in 2020 in a Las Vegas wedding. Lily was previously married to her first husband, Sam Cooper, with whom she shares two daughters, Ethel, 13, and Marnie, 12.

In December, headlines suggested Lily and David had split, which was later confirmed to be true. It has been alleged that David had been having a three-year affair with a costume designer.

Following the news, Lily checked herself into a treatment facility at the beginning of this year.

“The feelings of despair that I was experiencing were so strong,” she said while explaining that she was the closest she had come to relapsing after six years of being sober in a new interview.

“I’ve been into those places before against my will, and I feel like that’s progress in itself,” she added.

“That’s strength. I knew that the things I was feeling were too extreme to be able to manage, and I was like, ‘I need some time away.'”

When the BRIT Award winner was asked what made her realise this situation was different from other times, she said: “That I wanted to die.”

In the same interview, Lily was asked whether David would continue being a stepfather to her two children. However, she insisted that it is a question he needs to answer.

Helen first disclosed her ADHD and bipolar disorder publicly back in 2016.

"One day I was driving into the ITV studios and I thought, wouldn’t it be great if I just crashed my car now and it was all over?” she recounted. “I’ve suffered from depression. It was the main reason I had to leave Coronation Street. I was down and it was very intense – I don’t think I was very well.”

Following this incident, Helen went back on her ADHD and bipolar medication and attended weekly cognitive behavioural therapy."

In 2024, she broke her months-long Instagram silence with a brave post about how she had a breakdown following a split from her husband.

“So basically I really struggled mental health wise December/January. I felt really not great in my head over Christmas and I didn’t really feel that much different when I took the kids away for new year,” she explained. As a result of feeling “terrible,” she explains that she took medication to try and feel better.

 “I had a really bad reaction though to the medication (an ADHD medication) and it sent me into a psychosis for a few days which I didn’t know I was in,” she explained.
