The reality star, who has been very vocal about her addiction to prescription painkillers in the past, also assured the readers that her upcoming book will take a deeper dive than ever before, including on her suicidal thoughts. Leah added that some of the bits were played out on TV, while some of it didn’t because it becomes difficult to fit all of it into an hour episode.

Messer revealed that some of the things that will be featured in her book would be the whole situation revolving around her having an addiction and how all of that happened and what was the outcome. The reality star further explained that she was very suicidal and that the book will dive deep into the details of her suicidal behaviour.

Leah Messer also stated that had it not been for her kids, which is why she named her book Hope, Grace, & Faith, she would not be where she is today. Furthermore, the reality star also stressed that, if not for MTV and her manager, Lindsay Riley, her kids would not even have a mother.
