Katie Price had fans feeling emotional last night with her Channel 4 documentary Trauma and Me, in which she discussed having suicidal thoughts.
The reality TV star, 44, was the focus of the one-off special, which had originally been due to air last month but had been postponed because of the late Queen's death.
It sees the former glamour model discuss trauma and experiences in her life, including opening up about her mental health – saying she's thought about ending her life.
She said in the documentary: "I hit a severe depression a couple of years ago. Depression on top of [post traumatic stress disorder]. I was suicidal. I didn't want to be here."
Discussing an attempt to take her own life, the mother-of-five said that in the aftermath all she saw were her children's faces, adding: "I don't ever want that to happen again".
Her mental health also came up in relation to the car crash in September last year that led to her pleading guilty to drink driving, driving whilst disqualified and driving without insurance.
Following the incident in West Sussex, Katie was given a 16 week prison sentence – suspended for 12 months – as well as 100 hours of unpaid community work.
Katie said that getting behind the wheel had been a "terrible mistake". She said: "I should never have done it. I recognise my mental health has been shaken. [...] I need help."
The documentary also introduced viewers to a man named Lee, who was at the scene of the crash. He recalled how Katie was in the aftermath of the incident last year.
He commented in the show: "The first thing you said to me was you don't want to be here... 'I've had enough'. You were in tears and shock and quite hysterical."
Among the mixed reaction to the documentary have been some viewers who found it emotional, with them taking to Twitter and Instagram to share their thoughts on it.
One viewer said: "I'm sat here watching with tears streaming down my face Katie. [...] So proud of you." Another said: "It's actually really sad and I feel sorry for Katie".
"Thought you were real and honest in [the] documentary. Keep working on you. Can't wait to see you back at the top," said another following the one-off special.
Another commented: "Some people deal with trauma differently. Some people can handle things others can't. Some people will never know the pain others are feeling".
"The reality is you never know until it happens to you. People need to stop being so judgemental of her. She's only human," another said in response to the previous comment.
One viewer wrote: "To all those trolling; honestly give your heads a wobble and think about the consequence of your words on the subject. You don't need to write anything".
"I was diagnosed with #PTSD about ten years ago. She's right. It's good to talk. Really hope she continues to heal," said another viewer in response to the documentary.
Katie is said to be having weekly therapy sessions as she seeks to address her mental health, with her saying that she owes it to herself and her children to "get better".
