During Thursday’s visit (August 24) to the Channel 4 dating agency, viewers caught up with the This Morning star who has been struggling to find love with the two partners she was matched with.

“I’m quite surprised to be in a position whereby I’m standing here taking psychological advise from somebody in the smoked salmon business.
“Thank you very much for sharing your insights, that’s great,” she said before wishing the pair well and every success in their futures.
When asked if she would like to go on another date with the two suitors, the TV presenter turned them down and instead decided to go on a blind date with someone chosen by the experts.
