Sophie Anderton checks into rehab

December 3rd, 2007

Sophie Anderton has checked into rehab following allegations earlier this week that she took drugs and offered sex to an undercover newspaper reporter.
The 30-year-old model is said to be seeking professional help at The Priory in London to help her kick her drug habit once and for all.
In a statement released yesterday, Anderton’s parents Sue and John Deacon requested their daughter be allowed to seek help in private.
A family friend said: “She’s been screaming and crying down the phone, yelling, ‘It’s all over.’ Sophie is absolutely shattered. Everyone is terrified about her state of mind. Sue and John have been worried sick. But hopefully she is in the right place now.”
This is Anderton’s third attempt at rehab, after previously trying to deal with her drug demons in 1998 and 2003.
The video expose by the News Of The World alleged that the former Gossard lingerie model, offered sex for money and also asked the reporter if he wanted cocaine as she snorted the drug in front of him.
Anderton has since been sacked by bottled tanning firm Fake Bake, which paid her around €100,000 a year to be its face, following the allegations.
