“I’ve been prostituting on and off for about three years to support my habit,” admits Niki, who says she tried heroin for the first time seven years ago as a freshman in college. Now, she says she’s homeless, addicted, and just weeks away from giving birth.
Niki says she’s about 90% sure her boyfriend Jessey is the father of her baby. “Unfortunately, there is a chance that it could be one of my clients’.”
She also says everything she makes goes right back to support her heroin habit. “I would rather feed my drug habit than my unborn child.”
In the video above, Niki and Jessey allow the cameras to follow them around for a revealing look at how they exist day-to-day.
Does Niki say she wants to get off heroin before her baby is born? And is her family willing to help? Tune in to Dr. Phil on Friday to find out.
