“Because me and him are more ‘stand in the corner, drink and have a laugh’ than the ‘centre of the dance floor’ people.”;

She added: “He was really nervous, and I think that’s how I’ll be.

“As I’ve gotten a bit older, I just feel like I get out of my comfort zone less and less.

“And I know that’s not a good thing and I should be pushing myself out of it sometimes.”;

A source close to Vicky said: “She’s had a continuing rise in popularity and her TV work is going from strength to strength after presenting a serious Channel Four and appearing on Celebrity .

“It’s a no-brainer they want to sign her up.”;

The BBC declined to comment.
