X Factor auditionee, Anastasia Baker has blamed her breakdown on last night’s TV show on post natal depression.
The singer was seen collapsing on the steps of a Cannes mansion after messing up her song in front of judge, Cheryl Cole and Girls Aloud band mate, Kimberly Walsh.
Baker told The Daily Star: “At the time I just didn’t realise that I was suffering from post-natal depression.
