Danniella Westbrook has hit out at her millionaire ex-husband Kevin Jenkins in an explosive rant.
The former EastEnders actress, 49, took to Instagram on Wednesday to plug her tell-all book.
In her rant, the soap star accused the businessman of being unfaithful to her which ‘tore the family apart’ and said she suffered a drug relapse when her marriage broke down.
Danniella split from Kevin in 2014 after 13 years of marriage.
She wrote alongside a video montage of pictures from her failed marriage: ‘So my new book will be a true strong story of a life marriage and family torn apart by more than what was reported in the press.’

‘This book will be everything from child abuse to child star to addict to mother to right now.
’12 years plus married with a husband I made out in the press to be the perfect man a millionaire who loved us…
‘Truth is this same man has recently married a woman he had an affair with throughout our marriage.
‘A family torn apart and built on lies and after 4 years clean an inevitable relapse when I found out and left…
‘The people who broken me lied to me sold me out and left my son and I for dead will not be left out of my new book.
‘And I have quotes from people who knew me throughout my whole life who witnessed so much.
‘Hopefully this book will help other people who have lived through similar things .. It’s time for other people to own their part of the good times and bad in my life.
‘I will no longer be the keeper of anyone’s secrets, I am and will heal all trauma, and at times, people know the truth about others.’
The actress split from Kevin in 2014 and subsequently asked him for a divorce on Twitter on his birthday back in 2019.
Danniella tweeted at the time: ‘Happy birthday to My Husband off nearly 19 years Kevin Jenkins. Hope you have the most amazing birthday weekend KJ But after 5 years of asking please let me give you this GIFT . #DontAskDontGet #MrTA.’ [sic]
She also shared a video, in which she said: ‘So it’s the 23rd of August, which can only mean one thing. A very, very happy birthday to my darling husband Kevin. And I have the perfect present for you. How about we get a divorce?’
She later tweeted: ‘After 19 years and his constant cheating &him miraculously now suddenly broke after selling his company for millions I think ok to ask for a divorce after 5 years of separating and asking for 1 .
‘I don’t want and never have wanted money or a house or car just the paper signed.’ [sic]
Danniella and Kevin have daughter Jodie, 22, together and she also has son Kai, 26, from her relationship with Robert Fernandez.
The actress later took to Instagram to share a photo with her jailbird fiance David, 29, and wrote: ‘lucky to have you x’.

The couple have recently reunited with Danniella going wedding dress shopping late last month.
The soap star was left devastated when her toyboy lover ex David called time on their union after a seven-year on-off relationship last month.
But she took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a video in a bridal boutique, captioning it: ‘It’s back on’.
She panned around the shop to show a number of stunning white gowns and a beaded headdress.
The clip was set to Ellie Goulding’s How Long Will I Love You and included a black-and-white snap of Daniella embracing David.
The actress announced last year that she was waiting on David to be released from prison so that he could propose in style.
It has been reported that David is serving time in prison for counterfeit goods and engaging in various physical altercations but will be released in September, just before her 50th birthday.
Daniella’s addiction to cocaine has been well documented. Her addiction was so severe that her septum – the cartilage between the nostrils – fell out.
The actress recently revealed she was doing ’11 bags’ of cocaine per day in the lead up to her stint on Celebrity Big Brother in 2016.
