The Ugly Truth is a rollercoaster of a book that has you hooked from the first page. Told in an original way: through transcripts, interviews and social media posts, it is a damning indictment of our tabloid media and celebrity obsession. It’s also a heartbreaking exploration of mental illness. 

Your heart will be in your mouth throughout this book. I think it’s impossible to read it and not feel passionate about it’s characters and subjects.. The Ugly Truth is not for the faint hearted. It’s original, blistering and brilliant. A triumph.

Her father, Sir Peter Lange, says she is a danger to herself and has been admitted to a private mental health clinic.

The media will say whichever gets them the most views.

But whose side are you on?
