Billie's Baby Blues

Doting mum Billie Piper has admitted struggling with postnatal depression following her son’s birth.
The pretty actress hit rock- bottom when she returned to work as a screen prostitute on hit TV series Secret Diary of a Call Girl. It was five months after her difficult 26-hour labour and emergency Caesaraen to have baby Winston. But the determined star, 27, refused to take any medication for her baby blues.
Describing her ordeal she said: “The doctor said I had post-natal depression.
“Secret Diary was a stressful time. I had started leaving Winston. I was finishing breast-feeding, which is really emotional.
Billie, who had Winston in October 2008, has battled mental illness before. She previously admitted suffering anorexia when she hit the pop charts aged 15, and when her marriage to Radio 2 DJ Chris Evans fell apart.
Now wed to Lewis actor Laurence Fox, 31, she insists she is happier than ever.
