Emily Atack has opened up about the realities of being a single woman, sharing her candid thoughts on the loneliness that can come with it.
The 33-year-old former Inbetweeners star recently revealed on the Soap + Glory podcast Soaking Up Life With Emily Atack, that while she loves being independent, there are times when she finds it difficult.
"People think I fly the flag for all the single ladies, but I'm not afraid to admit being on your own is actually miserable a lot of the time. It's pretty hard," she said.
"There are times when I go out and I feel confident and sexy on my own and I'm independent. But there are times when I cry myself to sleep because it's lonely and awful, and it's OK to admit that, I think."
Emily split from her boyfriend Liam McGough last year and has been embracing single life since then. She also revealed that when it comes to love, she can be too giving and forget about taking care of herself.
"Where I go wrong in life is that I'm known as confident, sexy and all those things, and that's all great," she said. "And then the second that I'm in love, I'm absolutely pathetic. I go from being confident to being like, 'Just have everything', and that's not on them, that's all on me. That's a lack of self-care and self-love."
Emily has been in the spotlight ever since her role in the popular E4 comedy series The Inbetweeners. Most recently she was spotted on the set of a Jilly Cooper drama with David Tennant, and the eight-episode series will be an adaptation of Jilly's second novel from her Rutshire Chronicles, called Rivals.
The British actress has opened up about the struggles of single life, and while it might not be easy, it is an honest look at the realities of being single. With her upcoming drama series, we can look forward to more of Emily's raw and honest take on life.
