‘I don’t feel great today. I feel grateful but sad. Anyone who has dealt with mental health issues and depression will understand and know that you are not alone….

‘When I’m working I feel none of the above.. I’ve just finished filming. I will meditate and try and raise my frequency to bring positivity back into my life. Today is just a bad day.

It comes after Patsy said she’s given up on hopes of finding a man after being married four times and is now content to ‘fill the hole in her soul’ alone.

The actress called off her engagement to property tycoon fiancé Patric Cᴀssidy last year and said in November that she has no longer has any interest in a relationship. 

She told Hello!: ‘I wouldn’t want a relationship, I am not interested. I do believe in love. But for me it’s not something I need, I have been on my own a long time and I like my own company.  Now, it’s just adjusting my life to fill the hole that’s in my soul.’ 

She announced her whirlwind engagement to Patric in 2023, where he was said to have popped the question just weeks after their first date.

He is thought to have proposed to the former Holby City star in Mayfair seafood restaurant Scott’s, before buying the fellow diners champagne to celebrate. 

The couple then had an official engagement in February, with Patric getting down on one knee on a beachfront surrounded by flowers shaped into a heart. 

However Patsy was reportedly left ‘visibly distressed’ at a charity event in June when Patric snatched her diamond engagement ring from her hand during a row.

Just weeks later a spokesperson for Patsy told The Sun on Sunday: ‘I can confirm they have split, and would appreciate that she is given her privacy regarding the matter. She is currently very busy working.’

‘They have a lot of love for one another, but ultimately, she knew that they couldn’t make it work in the long-term so felt it was best not to move forward with their relationship.
