EXCLUSIVE: Former EastEnders icon Danniella Westbrook has her sights set on streaming giant Netflix as she makes a bold career move which is a far cry from Albert Square
Former EastEnders star Danniella Westbrook has her sights set on Netflix as she makes a bold career move.
Danniella, 51, spoke exclusively to Daily Star in collaboration with casino.org as she shared her new projects away from Albert Square.
She revealed: “I’ve actually written a TV show as well, a reality series for my boxers and fighters, which we’re hoping to get picked up by Amazon or Netflix. It’s all based in Dubai.”
Before adding: “I also work closely with Freddie Warren, who’s Frank Warren’s nephew, and we do a lot together. He’s just launched a new company called Global, and we’ve got a big fight coming up in August, which I’m really excited about. Things like that, I’m just loving at the moment. I’m really enjoying this side of life.”
Though she’s not against starring on UK TV shows and would love to have a pop at E4’s Celebs Go Dating.
The star shared: “I’d love to do Celebs Go Dating. I need to find true love. I thought I found it, but I was wrong.
But what type of person would she like to find? “I’d like someone with a job,” she laughed. “Honestly, a good mate of mine, Danny – he’s been in the industry for years doing hair. He’s worked with some huge celebrities, like Cara Delevingne and loads of others. If you could find someone like my mate Dan, that would be perfect.
“He understands how tough this industry can be and has a solid work ethic. He’s clean and sober, so he’d get where I’m coming from with my own lifestyle.
“I’d love to meet someone who’s not a clout chaser, someone genuine who isn’t obsessed with social media or has a massive ego. Just someone real, with a bit of drive. Someone who doesn’t want to suddenly be an actor or go on Big Brother once you’ve lived with them, you know, suddenly they want to give up everything they’re doing and become famous.
“When you get to 51, and you think you’ve found ‘the one’ – like I thought I had not too long ago – and it doesn’t work out, it knocks you a bit. So now, I’m just trying to find that spark and energy again.”
