Publisher Description
KYM MARSH is one of our most-loved stars, but her life has been a rollercoaster ride through love, laughter and tears.
Now Kym's ready to tell her full story for the first time, describing her difficult childhood growing up on a council estate in Wigan, and struggling at school with bullying and an eating disorder.
She describes falling in love at 17 and finding herself pregnant while still a teenager. By the time she was 21, she was a single mum with two very young children, David and Emily, and it was a real struggle to make ends meet.
But Kym had always dreamt of performing and even though the odds were stacked against her, she was determined to make her dream a reality. One day she auditioned for a new TV show called Popstars and her life changed forever.
Kym now stars in the nation's favourite soap, Coronation Street. But her life off-screen hasn't been easy. She reflects on her marriage to Jack Ryder and how hard she tried to make it work. Kym found new love with Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas and after tragically losing their first baby Archie in 2009, the couple were over the moon to welcome little Polly Lomas into the world earlier this year.
Entertaining, funny and incredibly honest, From the Heart is a fantastic read all about how sometimes the best things happen in life when you refuse to give up hope.

From the Heart
What a wonderfully written, honest and heartfelt account of Kym Marsh...taking the reader through her early days at school and being bullied, her love of singing and performing, having children at a young age and then through to her personal relationships and acting career...reading the chapter of when she tragically lost her baby son Archie actually bought tears to my eyes, you realise what a heartbreaking time in her life this was, and how Kym and her family struggled and still grieve his incredibly sad loss. I simply could NOT put this book down and urge everyone to read it ASAP!
Brilliant
What a amazing woman. Shows you what you can achieve if you dream hard enough
Quite good
Quite good but Kym puts herself as the victim more than she should have
