She said: “He left when I was five and for years I constantly asked where my daddy was.

“All my brothers and ­sisters have been kept away. I found out I had a brother at the age of nine through a newspaper,” she claimed.

Coco added: “I have to accept it now, we are done.”

Before meeting and marrying now wife Joanne in 2010, Shaun became a dad twice more.

With Joanne, Shaun has daughters Pearl, 13, and Lulu, 12.

And it’s his girls that he credits with saving his life and helping him to kick heroin.

He said: “I don’t even think about drugs. And when I’m not working, I’m in bed by 11pm.”
