“You are enough, even when your heart is hurt by someone you love and care about.
‘On the days when you stand in front of the mirror and you don’t feel like yourself, you are also enough on those days.
“If you’re exhausted and you’re running out of steam and you haven’t finished everything you need to do that day, then you’re enough.
‘You are enough, you are always enough, and always will be. Be kind to yourself. Today and always.’
Coleen appeared on This Morning last week where she told the hosts that she wants to leave behind what happened with Rebekah in the past.

“And as we go into the new year… just breathe and see what happens, this is my record, this is how I felt. I don’t want to think about the other side.’
