Danniella Westbrook: 'I'm not a messy drug addict anymore' - reunites with her son Kai

She went on Celebrity Big Brother to make her children proud. And it seems her stint in the most famous house in Britain did just that for Danniella Westbrook, 42, since she was greeted by her teenage son Kai Jenkins after coming fifth in the Friday night final.

Scooped up by his mum in a warm embrace, the 19-year-old seemed in good spirits but a bit embarrassed by the attention, following his confession that he had not seen or spoken to his mum in 'a long time'.

 'I don't speak to my mother, I haven't done in a long time. 'We don't live/see each other so I am not to know what she does in her time.' But it seemed the pair were happy to see each other following Danniella's eviction interview, where the mum-of-two spoke candidly about her troubled past and her goal of making her kids proud.

Donning a glittering fishtail gown in dazzling gold, the former EastEnders actress - who also has a daughter Jody, 15, with ex-husband Kevin Jenkins - told host Emma Willis: 'I just wanted to make my kids proud of me, I'm sick of them having to defend me. 'Now they can go out and say, "That's my mum, that's who she is, she's ok, she's not some messy drug addict".' She added: 'This whole programme has changed my life. It's been an amazing experience.'
