Twink swears off alcohol: 'Looking back, I clearly drank too much'

Twink has admitted that years in the world of showbiz led her to drink too much.

The panto queen swears off alcohol these days but admitted that in her younger days she drank more than she should have.

“Looking back now, I clearly drank too much,” she said.

“Because I put on a lot of weight through alcohol in later years and just couldn’t maintain my weight or my fitness levels.

“I didn’t get hangovers, thankfully, but I would have been more sluggish in the gym, and I certainly didn’t feel as crisp and smart as I do now.

The TV star gave up alcohol after going on a new diet, but decided to stop drinking it altogether after she no longer had the desire.

“It was an amicable parting,” she told the Irish Independent.

“Alcohol and I just drifted gently apart. It also occurred to me that it behooves you, as you age, to get a dose of the smarts.

“I don’t think your liver, kidneys or skin benefit long-term from alcohol, so if you’re the type who can do a little unit in moderation, then bully for you, but that’s not me.

Twink has also sworn off drugs as she reckons if she ever tried them she’d become an addict.

“I’m a compulsive personality, and if I can’t have the bottle, my attitude would be, feck that, I won’t have any of it at all.

“I don’t eat one peanut or crisp either, as I’d finish the whole packet, and I could never take a shot of cocaine or heroin because I’d end up an addict.”
