Fearne Cotton has always made a point of speaking frankly about her own struggles with mental wellness. Now, in a series of Instagram posts, the presenter has opened up about the realities of living with night-time anxiety.

According to Anxiety UK, around 80% of people say their worries become out of control at night, and Cotton – who has focused her attention on becoming a wellness ambassador for fans via the brilliant Happy Place initiative – has found herself plagued by late-night panic attacks of late.

“It is almost impossible to get sleep in our house at the moment so everything feels slightly edgy and out of focus,” Cotton explained, alongside a black-and-white photograph of her husband, Jesse Wood.

“The lack of sleep has triggered my night time panic attacks again so I’m fearing I’ve regressed massively which is disheartening.”
