British TV presenter Fearne Cotton has revealed she gave up drinking alcohol three months ago and is enjoying the sober life.

She told Company magazine recently: “I wasn’t a big drinker before so I found it quite easy to give up completely - and now I feel bloody brilliant.”

“It’s not like I was never naughty - I’d go to gigs and get three hours’ sleep - but then I’d panic as I had to go to work the next day.”

But while she’s happy to give up the booze, she has no plans to make any other changes to her intake: “I’ve seen pop stars on really strict diets and you can’t help but wonder how they do it. I find it so sad. I’d rather be happy and have a little pot belly than be skinny and miserable.”
