She’s been posting updates of the movies and TV shows she’s been watching from bed, but a sunny day combined with an exciting event she was forced to miss, tipped the star over the edge.

Posting a photo to her Instagram stories of her blinds, Danniella wrote: “Another beautiful hot sunny day and I’m stuck in the house… I’m so not happy right now… I’m fuming.”

She later shared a video from an event she was due to attend this evening, telling organisers “sorry I can’t be there tonight… but see you soon.”

Danniella was set to attend London In Sky where diners enjoy a fancy dinner while suspend from a giant table over the O2 Arena.

It comes after Danniella appeared on a podcast with Paul Danan and Jumpin Jack Frost to discuss her years of drug addiction.

Admitting she “wasted years of her life”, Danniella said: “It’s taken me 48 years to get to that point and I can’t say I’ll be there tomorrow.

“The worst thing I have done is throwing my life away, hating myself, the years I have wasted not liking the person I am.”

Danniella is currently undergoing operations to get her rib implanted in her face after drugs left her with crumbling bones and a collapsed jaw and cheekbone.

She went under the knife to help rebuild her face – and restore her shattered self-confidence.

She believes her collapsed face was caused by cocaine laced with lethal animal de-wormer.

Danniella took her first line of cocaine at 14 and is thought to have blown £250,000 on drugs.

Speaking about the surgery, the mum-of-two told The Sun: “After I relapsed (in 2014), for years I didn’t care what I looked like because I was on a crazy whirlwind of destruction.

“But I’ve got to a point where looking like this upsets me, so I’m going to make a change — not because of what others think but so I can be happy with the way I am.”

Former EastEnders star Danniella has already had two of FIVE reconstructive operations at Liverpool’s Aintree Hospital.

“It will change the way I look but also help my breathing and sinus issues,” she said.

“So it’s about my health as well. I’ll be in for the big surgery, which is the bone replacement, at the end of April. And then the final operation to tweak and finish the nose is at the end of May.”
