Emily Atack has opened up about her struggles of being single.
One of the breakout stars of The Inbetweeners, Atack’s career has skyrocketed after she appeared on the 2018 series of ITV’s I’m A Celebrity.
But despite being one of the most in-demand women on TV, the comedian admitted that she finds it hard not having love in her life.

She also admitted that sometimes she lacks the self-confidence to keep relationships going, as well as crying herself to sleep because of her loneliness.
The 33-year-old confessed that there is a deeper emotion to her than what meets the eye.
“People think I fly the flag for all the single ladies, but I’m not afraid to admit being on your own is actually miserable a lot of the time. It’s pretty hard,” she said.
“There are times when I cry myself to sleep because it’s lonely and awful, and it’s okay to admit that, I think.”
Emily has been on the market since her split from former Big Brother hunk Liam McGough, 39, last year.
She has also been romantically linked to a number of other A-listers including footballer Jack Grealish, singer Harry Styles, model Jude Taylor and Strictly’s own Giovanni Pernice.
Speaking to The Sun, the actress said she is a self-confessed hopeless romantic, adding that “it’s actually ruining my life”.
“Where I go wrong in life is that I’m known as confident, sexy and all those things and that’s all great,” she said.
“And then the second I’m in love, I’m absolutely pathetic. I go from being confident to being like, ‘Just have everything’, and that’s not on them, that’s all on me.”
Atack first hit screens back in 2008 when she played Charlotte “Big Jugs” Hinchcliffe in The Inbetweeners.
After establishing herself as a pin-up after her stint on the show, Emily added another string to her bow when she went into the I’m A Celeb jungle.
Viewers fell in love with the comedian’s honesty and reality, as she showed her natural makeup-free beauty.
She eventually finished second to footballing icon Harry Redknapp in what has since been deemed a classic edition of the show.
