Beautiful Chaos by Ali Douglas

Beautiful Chaos by Ali Douglas

When the young Ali Douglas decided she wanted a career on television, she found a way to make it happen.

She pushed and pushed until she landed her first TV job. But as her public profile grew, her life got harder, stranger, and more chaotic. From the outside, Ali appeared glamorous and successful. But really, she was frequently lonely and depressed. Ali had achieved what she'd always wanted, but she wasn't happy. 

She was 35 years old when she was finally diagnosed with bipolar II - and everything changed. That's when she embarked on a whole new adventure - a new relationship, a son, and a new way of looking at life. Ali doesn't hold anything back. She lays her life bare, and takes us on a journey from her darkest days to her brighter future, showing us how she learned to find beauty in chaos.

Douglas, Ali: - Ali Douglas was a television presenter for more than 20 years, presenting Sky Sports News and the ITV national news to name but a few, and made history by becoming the first woman to present the Scottish Premier League. Her successful and high profile life was a far cry from what was going on behind the scenes though. Ali was battling serious mental illness but it wasn't until the age of 35 that she received a correct diagnosis of Bipolar. After a successful career, Ali made the decision to retire from television in May 2017 to become more of a hands-on mummy to her then 5-year-old son, MK. Life doesn't always go to plan though... Ali made the decision to begin blogging anonymously on her life with the illness (talkandcheese.net). Then, just a couple of months later, she landed a book deal. Ali's autobiography came out in November 2018. Now, juggling motherhood with her writing career, Ali has found that it is possible to have a meaningful and happy life, despite living with bipolar.
