My Mum, Your Dad introduced Natalie Russell to a fan base who were shocked to learn recently about her childhood trauma and the incredibly hard life she lived prior to her appearance on the show. The 44 year old from Bournemouth has battled substance abuse, followed by time in rehab facilities, a brief spell in a psychiatric hospital and has been to prison five times. Now she's opened up to OK! on her time inside in an exclusive chat, saying "there are so many complexities to being in prison", but that missing her family wasn't one of them.
