Scarlett Moffatt has opened up about her relationship with Christianity on Good Morning Britain after the brunette beauty embarked on a spiritual awakening during her first pilgrimage.
During Wednesday’s (April 6) instalment of the popular ITV morning show, Richard Madeley and Kate Garraway welcomed the queen of the jungle onto the show to reveal her new-found relationship with religion.
The former Gogglebox star took part in BBC’s Two series Pilgrimage alongside the likes of Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and broadcaster Nick Hewer where the group of celebs explored their different faiths.
Throughout the experience, the 31-year-old reconnected with spirituality and even found herself “defending” her religion in tense religious discussions on the show.
Now, the TV personality has opened up about how it she has been moving forward with her life as a Christian as she discussed her faith with the presenters on the show.
She told viewers at home: “So, I would say that I am a Christian, which I wouldn’t ever say before so I’m still getting used to being a Christian really.
“And I was always brought up to never talk about politics and religion.”
It was at this point that Kate asked what was the particular moment that she felt God’s presence during her life-changing pilgrimage.
“I think when we went to live with some monks and we were all chatting about our beliefs, it got into sort of a debate as religion often does.
“And I was really defending my religion and my beliefs and I think from there – because I’m not a very confrontational person – I knew that because I was defending how I felt that it must mean a lot to us.”
It comes after the reality star revealed what she wants for her funeral, admitting that she wants her coffin brought to the event with pall-bearers doing the Hokey Cokey.
She explained how she thinks more people should make death more of a “jolly” occasion as a celebration of life.
The TV personality explained: “You can – for my funeral, I’m going to put the fun in funeral. Let me tell you, I wish u was going to my own funeral.”
She went on to reveal how she hopes to have a projector showing clips of her telly highlights through the years.
Scarlett continued: “I just think it will make people feel warm and fuzzy , like I’m there.
“And I also want – when my body gets brought in – I want it to be to the Hokey Cokey, because I think that will be hilarious – in, out, in, out, you shake it all about!”
