Singer Lola Young played her first headline show for five months in London on Wednesday after taking a break to "work on myself" following an on-stage collapse last September, and showed she can fulfil her pledge to come back stronger.
As Young's anthem Messy blew up as a massive global hit over the past 18 months, for her, a messy lifestyle wasn't just the stuff of song lyrics.
She twice went into treatment for cocaine dependency, according to a New York Times profile last summer, and told the Guardian that addiction had dogged her for "a long time".
Meanwhile, she has struggled with her mental health, having been diagnosed as a teenager with schizoaffective disorder and ADHD.
In September, things reached breaking point once more. Shortly after telling a festival crowd in New York she said she'd had a "tricky couple of days", she dropped her microphone, collapsed backwards and had to be helped off stage.
