MUMBAI: Singer Lily Allen has revealed that she paid for sex with female escorts on tour following her split from husband Sam Cooper.

The 33-year-old has made the revelation after sections from her book were leaked to the press.

She explained that she slept with women, while she was on her Sheezus tour following the album's release in 2014, reports mirror.co.uk.

Taking to Instagram, she revealed, "So, in my book My Thoughts Exactly (out on 20 September ) I detail some stuff from my dark days, around the Sheezus era.”

"I slept with female escorts when I was on tour because I was lost and lonely and looking for something. I'm not proud, but I'm not ashamed. I don't do it anymore."

Making the revelation, she shared a screenshot of an email from someone warning her about the leak.

Allen had earlier spoken about her family life, following her divorce from Cooper this year.

The pair, who got married in 2011, shares custody of daughters Ethel, six-year-old and Marnie five year old.
