Billie's Breaking Point

Billie PiperBillie Piper has been a little down in the dumps.

Apparently her West End debut has got her more than a tad stressed out.

So much so, that she suffered an attack of the nerves in the run-up to the opening night of Treats.

The poor little lamb - she also missed performances due to illness.

Did this lead to her tearful coffee natter with ex-hubby Chris Evans? And what about the not entirely positive reviews for her new play?

Billie told The Evening Standard: "If I start to think about everything that everybody writes about me, I would probably break - I'm just trying something new and there's nothing wrong with that and, yes, it's hard.

Billie Piper and Chris Evans"It's my first time on the West End stage and I've never done it before - it's hardly surprising that it's going to be really terrifying."

Whilst Billie was at it, she cleared up a few other rumours that have been doing the rounds...

Firstly, she said she wasn't having a blub in a recent photograph of her with Chris, she was actually "squinting because the sun was so bright".

And, as far as the whisperings of a marriage to her new boyf Laurence Fox, her co-star in Treats, she had this to say: "No. I'm not even divorced yet, so that would be impossible."

So, there you have it - is everyone a little clearer now?
