Since 2016, Chelsee has been portraying the feisty character of Goldie McQueen on the popular soap opera Hollyoaks. However, behind the scenes, she was going through a difficult time with her mental health during her second pregnancy. In a recent interview, the actress opened up about her struggles and how they impacted her during this special time in her life.
Chelsee, who was already a mother to seven-year-old Coco, welcomed her daughter Cookie into the world last December. However, her pregnancy was not an easy one as her mental health reached an all-time low. The star of Waterloo Road shared with The Sun, "I have been battling with my mental health for quite some time, and it hit its peak during my pregnancy." She further explained, "There were moments when I would have dark thoughts and then blame myself, thinking, 'How can I be feeling like this when I am pregnant and have a young daughter who needs me?'"
As her struggles continued, Chelsee found herself in a downward spiral, questioning why she was feeling this way. It got to the point where doctors had to take her in for a caesarean section three weeks before her due date. She revealed, "Cookie was due on January 14, but they decided to do the C-section on December 22 because they knew I was really struggling." Even after giving birth, her mental health did not improve, as she was diagnosed with post-partum depression. However, with the help of counseling, she was able to overcome this difficult time.
But things are looking up for Chelsee as she has recently joined the cast of Dancing on Ice, a popular reality competition show. She shared her excitement about the new challenge, saying, "I'm ready and good to go! Let's do this!" She also revealed that she has some rhythm, but skating on ice is a whole new ball game for her. Despite the challenge, she is looking forward to the live shows and the adrenaline rush that comes with performing in front of a live audience every week.
With her role in Hollyoaks and her upcoming appearance on Dancing on Ice, Chelsee is keeping herself busy and focused on her career. She is grateful for the support she has received from her fans and is looking forward to what the future holds. So, whether you are a fan of her character Goldie or can't wait to see her glide on the ice, keep an eye out for Chelsee Healey in the new year.
