Overview

  • On June 10 at Crewe Magistrates’ Court, the 23-year-old influencer admitted drink-driving.
  • Police evidence showed she had 122 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath—nearly three-and-a-half times the legal limit—after attempting to breach a police blockade in Wilmslow on May 11.
  • The court imposed an interim driving ban and heard that she sobbed and was consoled by her father, former footballer Phil Bardsley, as her lawyer cited her previously unblemished record.
  • Bardsley is due to be sentenced on July 14 and could incur an unlimited fine or face a lengthy driving disqualification.
  • Her guilty plea is expected to end her chances of joining Love Island despite earlier talks with the show’s producers.
