The birthday girl, who is a devoted single parent to Sunday, two, recently admitted her dating life has ‘fallen flat’ after ‘finding herself’ in lockdown.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline the First Time Mum star admitted that despite having a ‘few date offers’, she prefers to ‘find that chemistry’ by meeting someone face-to-face.
The blonde beauty has been single ever since she split from her boyfriend Albie Gibbs in May.

The influencer said: ‘Lockdown would have been a great time to spark up some conversation.
‘But being single – I’ve had this conversation with lots of my single friends – conversations with new love interests in lockdown last from two days to a week… and then it falls flat.
‘It’s a mutual understanding, there’s nothing you can talk about. For me, I didn’t have any Zoom dates or that. I like to be in front of someone to have that chemistry, the lookout for love hasn’t been a priority.
‘I’m on this whole like ”I’m 30 tomorrow, I’ve got a house to run, I’ve got my hair to wash,” I’m not looking for love, and when I put that out to the universe, and said ”it would be great I’d love to be chatting to a few guys right”… zilch! Nada!’
