Edwina Currie hopes her sexual anecdotes will "enlighten" the public.
The former Conservative MP is glad she spoke about losing her virginity on ‘I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ because it could encourage more people to be open about their sex life.
The 68-year-old star said: "We were all talking about losing our virginity. It was so long ago anyway. I don’t mind talking about what happened half a century ago.
"If it enlightens other people and gets them to a state of maturity and sexual awareness, I’m happy.
"It may be a taboo subject for young people. When you get to a certain age, you talk about it all the time. It’s one of the issues of the WI [Women’s Institute]."
Edwina – who came fourth on the ITV reality show – laughed of rumours she had given her former camp mate Nadia Forde, 25, sex tips.
She told The Sun newspaper: "I probably just said, ‘Enjoy it while you can, love!"
The ex-politician did have some advice for second place runner-up Jake Quickenden as she warned ‘The X Factor’ reject to "be careful" following his second place victory, according to Edwina the 26-year-old singer will be "overwhelmed by invitations" from the ladies.
Last night (07.12.14) saw four-time World Superbike champion Carl Fogarty win the title of King of the Jungle. The 49-year-old star beat Jake and third place runner-up Melanie Sykes, 44, to the crown.
