Kelly Osbourne has admitted she is lucky to be alive following her troubled past and addiction to prescription drugs.
During an interview with Piers Morgan on Life Stories, the newly slim star said she took up to 50 painkillers a day during her addiction and said she hoped she wouldn’t wake up.
“At the start I only took one every weekend. Then it was one every weekday, then two a day, then three,” she said.
“By the end I was taking so many pills I was on my hands and knees vomiting blood because the drug was ripping away my stomach lining.”
The reality TV star praised rehab saying that it turned her life around.
“I was taking 50 a day, more than twice the ‘lethal’ dosage, and every day I took one more, hoping I wouldn’t wake up,” she said.
“If I hadn’t gone into rehab then, I’m sure I wouldn’t be here now. I feel very lucky because people die every day from taking painkillers like Vicodin, and I was taking much more than them.”
Before her interview, Kelly tweeted, “Filming the Piers Morgan special [for] ITV and I could not be more [nervous] and more excited at the same time. I feel so honoured that he picked me!”
