Nineties pop star Anthony Kavanagh shocked fans as he shared a bloated photo of himself in the grips of his battle with alcoholism.
The 47-year-old shared a selfie of his lowest moment to mark addiction awareness week. He admitted feeling 'lost, broken and hopeless' but told fans he was proof that recovery is possible.
He posted: 'On #addictionawarenessweek I want to make anyone struggling aware that recovery is possible. 20 months ago I was lost, broken and hopeless. Ask for help, I’m so glad I did. #Wedorecover #Noshame #addiction #youcandoit'.
During the peak of his fame he was known just as 'Kavana' and released a string of singles including I Can Make You Feel Good.
