In recent publication, an excerpt of her autobiography has been printed. Piper divulges about her battle with anorexia that developed after a television presenter called her fat when she was a 16-year-old pop star. Piper began to use laxatives as well as starvation to drop weight. During a US promotional tour, she contemplated suicide as a result of low record sales and self doubt. She admits to managing five days without food during which time she existed on nothing more than Diet Coke and coffee. She also stated that her relationship with Evans made her ditch her starvation diet and gave her a new zest for life [1]. However, after her split with Evans, Piper returned to anorexia [2]. In the autobiography, Piper said that eating disorders were rife among the girls at her former school the Sylvia Young Theatre School. Sylvia Young Theatre School is a Stage school, in Marylebone, London. Young has since spoken out against Piper calling her claim "rubbish" and stating she feels "bewildered" by the allegation [3].
