Pearl Lowe has been a singer in a hugely successful pop group, a
fashion model and a friend to some of the most famous people in the
country. In the nineties when Britpop was in full swing and London
was officially the coolest place on the planet, Pearl really did
have it all. She was a beautiful woman with a glamorous career and
a rock and roll husband she adored, as well as a growing family of
gorgeous kids. Except, actually, the parties and the homelife were
in terrible tension because Pearl was drinking and taking drugs to
such excess that she wasn't sure she would survive. Pearl was a
junkie before she discovered party drugs like ecstasy and cocaine.
She managed to look after her kids in between enormous binges, but
she knew she had a choice to make: confront the demons, get clean
and have her life back, or give up and slip away further into
addiction, illness, death. Pearl made her choice. These days she
lives with her husband and children in the countryside and she has
left the London lifestyle behind. But she isn't the kind of person
who could ever give up on glamour - it's just that these days she
designs her own line of beautiful lace dresses rather than killing
herself slowly with booze and drugs. She is happy. Pearl's story is
a fascinating insight into a world that appears scintillating but
is relentless in its destructiveness. It's also inspiring in its
message that recovery is possible and sustainable, for everyone.
