Lee Ryan has spoken out for the first time after being arrested for alleged drink-driving and suspected possession of drugs last Friday (11 April).
In an interview with the Daily Star, the Blue singer said that spending time in police custody was "the biggest wake-up call".
"I know I've let people down," he explained.
"It made me realise there is a problem I can't keep ignoring. I need to do something about it.
"I can see that my actions were irresponsible and that I put myself and others in danger. For that I am truly sorry", he added.
The Celebrity Big Brother contestant was arrested for drink-driving last week, after police reportedly spotted him driving “erratically' after a night out with friends.
The singer was charged with failing to take a breathalyser test.
He is due in court next month.
