I Hate Suzie: Is Billie Piper's I Hate Suzie based on a true story?

Speaking to Radio Times, Piper said: “There are a lot of moments I really wouldn’t want people to think were autobiographical.

“The actual narrative is completely made up. The temptation to say, ‘That must be autobiographical,’ but hopefully people will get over that quickly.”

“I know exactly what it feels like [to be famous] and I’m sure it feeds into my performance.

“I’m only coming to terms with a lot of it right now.

“In my 20s a lot of my stress from that period was buried, and I still struggle to remember a lot of it.

“I don’t regret it. I love what I do and where I’m at personally.

“But I certainly wouldn’t want my children to go that way.

“There’s an anxiety of me as a child that I probably on some levels smother my children with.”

Sky original I Hate Suzie will start on Sky Atlantic, tonight, Thursday, August 27, at 9pm.

The series is also now available to watch on NOW TV.
