Speaking previously to the Daily Star, she said: "The doctors said I couldn't have any stress and then I left the Housewives and got rid of the shop.
"I just went back to basics, I had a breakdown and sort of breaking free now, I might eventually get another shop back, it is in some stores and it's online but that has a lot of people to look after it."
She went on to say that she was in "a bad way" while filming the show, explaining: "Part of ADHD, I was always taking on more stuff and with the Housewives, I have enough arguments in my own head so I don't have any space to have any other arguments with other people."
