Vicky Pattison gets second chance


Vicky Pattison feels like she has been given a second chance thanks to ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’

The reality TV star was crowned Queen of the Jungle after winning over viewers on the ITV show and admitted that she wasn’t always proud of her antics when she first shot to fame on ‘Geordie Shore’.

Speaking to Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford on ITV’s ‘This Morning’, she said: "I’ve been given a second chance, haven’t I? I’m been very fortunate. I did make a lot of mistakes when I was younger and I did some things that I’m not entirely proud of… and now, I’ve been given this amazing opportunity and slate wiped clean, and I think I’d be crackers to not make the most of it."

Referring to her time in the jungle camp, she added: "I’m so thrilled to just be clean! I truly do still feel very humbled… I tried my best to just make light of a situation. I think some of them got very down at times, and for me, I just felt so lucky to be given the opportunity."

Now that she has won over the public, Vicky has plans to try out a career in TV presenting.

She told Ruth and Eamonn: "I honestly haven’t thought about it too much…. but I’m started to feel quite at home here at ITV I’m not gonna lie! I would love to do something very similar to you guys, you are a big inspiration to me, I’d love to be a TV presenter, but at the moment I think I need to get home to see my family. I am a changed person, I have grown up but at the same time, I am still me."
