‘I don’t have time to wonder why he’s left me on a blue tick’: Ferne McCann blasts men who refuse to text back as she discusses single life
Ferne McCann has detailed what single life has been like for her since her split from former beau Albie Gibbs.
The reality star, 30, claimed she ‘doesn’t have time’ to deal with men who don’t text back since she’s returned to the dating scene, and claimed ‘some men can’t handle [her].’
Speaking to The Sun’s Fabulous magazine on Sunday, she said of her romantic endeavours: ‘I’ve been on a few dates, but I’m not putting pressure on it or looking to settle down. I have just surrendered with my love life and what will be will be.’

She added: ‘I don’t have time to wonder why he’s left me on a blue tick – if you’re not going to reply to me then, sorry, you literally won’t be able to handle me in a relationship because then I’ll want to be chatting to you all the time.’
‘Some men can handle that, some can’t. I’m an all or nothing kind of girl. Sometimes that’s endearing, sometimes it can be scary. I have toned it down a lot now, though.’
The blonde beauty has been single ever since she split from her boyfriend Albie in May during lockdown.

In an episode of First Time Mum, Ferne explained that with her in the UK and Albie in New York for a year, it had put a strain on their relationship, leading her to conclude he was the ‘right guy at the wrong time’.
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 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!’
Ferne is said to have met Albie in 2018 during a luxury holiday to Dubai with the two dating last year.
The star is even reported to have attended Albie’s family birthday meal in December and taken Sunday who she shares with her acid attacker ex Arthur Collins.
Ferne previously admitted she wanted to keep her budding romance ‘private’, two years after splitting from Collins, who is serving 20 years for throwing acid over 22 people in April 2017.
Prior to Albie, the TV personality had enjoyed a brief fling with Love Island’s Jordan Hames in September.
