My personal life was a bit of a car crash, Brooks tells trial

Former News International chief executive Rebekah Brooks laid bare details of her “car crash” personal life as she gave evidence about the inner workings of the News of the World.

The 45-year-old continued giving evidence in her defence at the Old Bailey today, becoming emotional as she faced questions about her relationships with actor Ross Kemp, her former deputy Andy Coulson and current husband Charlie Brooks, and her difficulties becoming a mother.
