‘You are enough even when your heart has been hurt by someone you love and care about.

‘On the days where you stand in front of the mirror and don’t feel like yourself you’re enough on those days too.

‘When you’re exhausted, run off your feet and didn’t finish everything you needed to that day, you’re enough then too.

‘You are enough, you are always enough, and you always will be. Be kind to yourself. Today and always.’

Coleen appeared on This Morning last week where she told hosts she wants to leave what happened with Rebekah in the past.

Asked by hosts Craig Doyle and Rochelle Humes how she feels about Rebekah, she said: ‘I don’t need to think about it.

‘I’ve got my own family and friends and… I’m obviously focusing on this (my book and series) at the minute but going into Christmas, I want a nice family Christmas.

‘And going into the New Year… just breathe and see what happens, this is my account, this is how I felt. I don’t want to think of the other side’s.’
