Now TV presenter Ulrika has been sober for a year and took to Instagram to share before and after photos.

One was captioned "sober" while the other was marked "drunk".

Ulrika continued: "Today I'm marking 1yr of sobriety.

"No fanfare, no medal, no trophy. The journey goes on.

"A huge thanks to all those beautiful people who have supported me; understood me; scooped me up and handled me tenderly and without judgement.

"Who nudged me in the right direction; who made me laugh and helped me shed the crippling shame."

Ulrika added: "My sobriety will continue to be my priority.

"Turns out it IS possible to teach old dogs new trick."

Last year Ulrika confessed she made the decision to quit booze after a frank conversation with a friend.

She said: "One Saturday morning my best friend, who I love and cherish, called me and basically told me we had spoken the night before and she hadn't understood a word I had said.

"She told me I needed help. I knew it came from a place of love.

"The sense of shame would have been enough to make me want a drink. But not on that occasion.

"Instead, I sobbed like a child who desperately needed someone to hold her. I was full of despair."
