Kim Woodburn was brash, loud and controversial.
The How Clean Is Your House? star was never afraid to shy away from a public feud, most famously when she branded fellow Big Brother star Coleen Nolan 'lying trash'.
But the lashings of public opprobrium she received as a consequence were nothing compared to the suffering Woodburn had gone through as a child and younger woman.
The star, who has died aged 83 after a short illness, previously revealed how she buried her stillborn son in a park after he was born four months early.
And she also detailed the shocking abuse and neglect inflicted on her by her mother, who she described as a 'vicious alcoholic'; whilst her first husband was allegedly 'abusive'.
