Beloved EastEnders actress Cheryl Fergison brings her life to paper for the first time, detailing the highs and lows of her career from her iconic portrayal of Heather Trott to appearing on numerous panels and reality TV shows from Loose Women to Celebrity Big Brother.

Before making a break into acting, Fergison’s childhood was less than idyllic, facing hardships and trauma. It didn’t end there. Throughout her adult life Cheryl has faced challenges that would have made many give up. But she persevered and built an enviable career on our screens.

Off screen Cheryl had suffered heartbreak and tragedy but took a chance on love with a man in Morocco she had never even seen. Her happy ending was not to last however. Cheryl found herself, through no fault of her own, penniless and forced to rely on food banks to survive.
