Speaking about mental health in an open and honest way is something that more people in the spotlight are getting comfortable with – and we’re totally here for it.

As well as Fearne Cotton, Bella Hadid and Queer Eye star Jonathan Van Ness, more public figures are being forthcoming about their mental health struggles and the impact of this is undeniable. Breaking down the stigma around these conversations can only foster more understanding and appreciation for everyone’s individual struggles – something we all need to remind ourselves of a little more.

The latest star to speak about their own mental health is Lady Leshurr. The UK rapper is known for her confident performances, ridiculously talented freestyle skills and has graced the small screen on shows like The Circle and, most recently, in BBC Two’s heartwarming music show Rock Till We Drop.
