After American Suzy Favor Hamilton failed to win 1500m gold at the Sydney Olympics, her life spiralled out of control.

Instead of settling down to family life, she began working as a high-class escort.

Speaking to Sportshour, she explains how mental illness drove her to become a Las Vegas call girl and also discusses her autobiography, in which she hoped to set the record straight.
