Lily Allen has "spilled every bean it is possible to spill" in her new autobiography.

The 32-year-old singer has penned a revealing memoir and decided against using a ghostwriter to help her, with a source telling the Mail On Sunday newspaper that the book will be released next year and will fill fans in on all aspects of Lily's life.

Announcing the book last month, Lily promised it would detail events from her childhood, her romantic liaisons, motherhood and the "highs and lows of fame", including her battles with eating disorders and drug and alcohol abuse.

Lily - whose parents, actor Keith Allen and film producer Alison Owen, divorced when she was just four - is also expected to detail the most painful moment of her life when she tragically delivered her son stillborn six months into her pregnancy in 2010 after contracting a viral infection. After the birth, the musician was admitted to hospital and treated for septicaemia.

In a statement, Lily wrote: "Some of it I think might be uncomfortable and shocking and brutal. There will be good stuff in there too; happy times. I will try and make it funny. I know it's about me but I hope that a lot of it will ring true with anyone who reads it. It won't be written with shame. It will be true."

Lily has two daughters, Ethel, five, and four-year-old Marnie, with her estranged husband Sam Cooper.

The 'Not Fair' singer has never spoken about her split from Sam in 2015 but insiders claim a leaked track, 'Family Man', deals with the break-up and is a taste of things to come from her upcoming fourth studio album.
