Tulisa Contostavlos has revealed how One Direction star Niall Horan supported her through her cocaine sting ordeal.
The former X Factor judge was ecstatic last week after her court case collapsed.
A British judge said there “strong grounds to believe” that Mazher Mahmood – an undercover reporter for the Sun on Sunday, known as the Fake Sheik – had “lied.”

Now Tulisa has thanked Mullingar pal Niall – as well as Marvin and Rochelle Humes and Rylan Clark for helping her cope with her court hell.
She said: “I locked myself off a lot from the world so there only a few people that could contact me.
“Marvin and Rochelle are two people that really had my back throughout – and Niall and Rylan.”
And speaking on a BBC documentary about the hell she went through, Tulisa admitted she tried to commit suicide.

She added: “Its been a really really hard year – the most difficult year of my life but at the same time I always try to tale a positive from a negative.
“And its given me the kind of life experience that you can’t buy – that it takes some people ten years to gain. Its also made me a wiser person. Stronger.
“I felt a million emotions. How could I have not seen it? I felt like my life was over. Like someone had taken my life away. They took it out of my hands and took it away in a second.”
Last week, Louis Walsh urged Tulisa to sue the newspaper.
