Danniella Westbrook has taken a savage swipe at her millionaire ex-husband Kevin Jenkins for 'tearing her family apart'
The former EastEnders star, 49, also threatened to expose all of Kevin's secrets in a tell-all book as she took to Instagram on Wednesday to promote her latest autobiography.
The actress didn't hold back as she slammed millionaire Kevin for being unfaithful and accused him of 'tearing their family apart' which Danniella said ultimately led her to relapse and use drugs again after their marriage collapsed.
After thirteen years of marriage, Danniella and Kevin called it quits on their love story in 2014, and alongside a montage of videos of happier times, Danniella confessed that she had been lying about how perfect her marriage actually was - admitting that behind closed doors, it was a very different story.

Danniella Westbrook, Kevin Jenkins, and their daughter Jodie along with Danniella's son, Kai (LARK/LFI)"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," she penned.
Danniella Westbrook sparks concern and admits 'my family broke me' in post
"Twelve 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 have 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," Danniella warned.
"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."
Danniella announced her split from Kevin in 2014 in a very public way, when she took to Twitter to ask him for a divorce, and subsequently accused him of continuously cheating throughout their marriage.
While wishing her ex-husband a happy birthday on Twitter in 2019, Danniella once again let rip when she tweeted at the time: "Happy birthday to My Husband off nearly 19 years Kevin Jenkins. Hope you have the most amazing birthday weekend. But after 5 years of asking please let me give you this GIFT . #DontAskDontGet #MrTA.'
"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?"
"After 19 years and his constant cheating and him miraculously now suddenly broke after selling his company for millions I think it's ok to ask for a divorce after 5 years of separating. I don't want and never have wanted money or a house or car just the paper signed."
Danniella and Kevin have daughter Jodie, 22, together the former soap star is also a proud mum to her son Kai, 26, from her previous relationship with Robert Fernandez.
