Lancashire Police confirmed on Wednesday that Nicola was treated as a high risk missing person when she disappeared.
Officers revealed she had “vulnerabilities” – including “significant issues with alcohol” in the past that were brought on by her “ongoing struggles with the menopause”.
They also divulged they had been sent to Nicola's home on January 10 following a report of a concern for welfare.
The force has now come under fire for releasing the personal information and are facing an Independent Office for Police Conduct probe.
