- Josie Cunningham admits she has been smoking 20 a day while pregnant
- Says she is not proud of having a cigarette when she discovered baby's sex
- Also drank a small glass of wine in a bid to overcome her disappointment
- Considered terminating the pregnancy so she could appear on Big Brother
- Last week she said she would give up smoking if the taxpayer funded it
- Also revealed she will be releasing a 'raw' autobiographical book this year
- Will be unedited, so spelling and grammar mistakes will be left in
A pregnant would-be glamour model who had a breast enlargement on the NHS has admitted she is drinking and smoking because she is expecting a baby boy, not a girl.
Josie Cunningham, 23, said if she knew she was having a son earlier, she would have gone through with the abortion she considered after being asked to appear on Big Brother.
As a result, the mother-of-two has turned to alcohol and cigarettes to get over her disappointment.
The former escort is now smoking 20 a day, even though she knows it will harm the baby.
She has vowed to quit, but has said she needs her GP as well as NHS-funded nicotine patches and counselling to help her kick the habit.
Her comments come days after she was pictured smoking before getting into a taxpayer-funded taxi, a service she uses every day because she developed 'anxiety' issues after angry people confronted her on the bus.
She told the Sunday Mirror: 'The evening I found out the sex of the baby was when I lit up my first cigarette. I’m not proud of it – but I couldn’t stop myself. It changed everything.
'Once I’d finished the cigarette I found it difficult to focus on anything positive, so I had a small glass of wine.
'My intention was to have one, but before I knew it I was on my second and I’d smoked a whole packet of fags.'
Today, Miss Cunningham revealed on Twitter that she will be releasing an autobiography at the end of the year.
Her agent Rob Cooper told Mail Online that the book will be 'Josie's exact words, completely unedited', meaning spelling and grammar mistakes will be included.
Last week it was revealed that Miss Cunningham, and her two children aged six and three, are driven two-and-a-half miles to and from the local school every day in a journey which costs Leeds Council £30 a day.
Miss Cunningham also clashed with Loose Women co-host Myleene Klass during an appearance last Wednesday, suggesting it was wrong that NHS money was used to fund her £4,800 cosmetic surgery.
Before her appearance - which caused a stir on Facebook and Twitter - she tweeted a photo of herself in the changing rooms with the message: 'Not long till I'm on Loose Women... Haters are going to hate regardless.'
The talk show’s presenters began the interview by saying that it was an opportunity to 'explain her side' after continuous negative publicity.
