As a TV agony aunt, Vanessa Feltz feels like a friend to everyone. The presenter and radio host is known and loved for her down-to-earth attitude and no-nonsense advice on everything from relationships to fashion.

But the 62-year-old decided to branch out into the world of social media, where she found a whole new audience who provided her with support after she split from her fiancé Ben Ofoedu in 2023.

It’s social media, too, that gave her the inspiration to launch her own fashion range, 4Love after she received messages asking her where her clothes were from.

As well as inspiring her followers, it seems the This Morning star has an added reason to dress to impress – she’s on the lookout for romance.

Although she tells us there is nothing serious to mention when it comes to her love life, there’s no denying her stint on Celebs Go Dating has provided Vanessa with the confidence to get back out onto the dating scene. So much so she’s keen to do the reality show for a second time!

“If they took me back then I’d give it more of a chance,” she says of the experience. “I’m calmer now so I’d be better.”

Here, Vanessa lifts the lid on dating and what makes her happy...
