Former Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger has admitted that her relationship with Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton helped her overcome her bulimia battle.

In her VH1: Behind The Music episode, the 'Poison' songstress revealed that she had been dealing with a serious eating disorder for years, but her boyfriend had managed to help her change her way of thinking and eventually get over it:

"[He] gave me the courage to kind of end that disorder and that disease. He made me feel beautiful for who I am and not what pant size I'm wearing and that helped a lot.”

"A little light came on in the back of my head and that's when I started to try and turn this around. I said, 'Wow, I've got to learn how to accept myself and my body.' I started to embrace myself as a woman and my curves."
