This Morning presenter Eamonn Holmes encouraged his colleague to seek help
March 01, 2020 - 19:30 GMT Diane Shipley Fiona Phillips spoke out about her time on Strictly Come Dancing in a frank new interview on Sunday. In the conversation, published by The Sun, the presenter shared that she was struggling with her mental health at the time of her appearance on the BBC dance competition. The 59-year-old was paired with Brendan Cole back in 2005 but never won over the judges and left in week four.

However, she gave credit to her former GMTV co-star Eamonn Holmes, who reportedly encouraged her to get help for depression, although she didn't take his advice at the time. The star said she hadn't admitted to herself how much stress she was under, with young children and ageing parents to care for alongside her stressful job and her appearance on Strictly.
A couple of years ago, the mum-of-two appeared on Lorraine where she talked about the pressures of work and motherhood, and how they combined with a genetic tendency to depression and the menopause to make her feel terrible. Fiona said:"My poor mum, when we were little, she used to lock herself in the room for a day in the dark because she was just so, so depressed. I think it can run in families as well.
