Celebs Go Dating first look: Myleene Klass makes cameo appearance as she gives heartbroken Vanessa Feltz a pep talk
MYLEENE Klass makes a cameo appearance in tonight’s Celebs Go Dating to give Vanessa Feltz a pep talk.
Vanessa, 61, is one of the famous faces taking part in the current series of Celebs Go Dating.
After a disastrous start – which saw one man claim dating Vanessa is like “pulling teeth” – Myleene, 45, was on hand to heap praise on the broadcasting legend.
In a clip from tonight’s show, she says: “I feel, even with this process, I’ve got a different Vanessa sitting in front of me.
“How many people would be doing what you’re doing, after being through what you’ve been through? It’s so bold and it’s so Vanessa.”
Vanessa replies: “I’m grateful for the opportunity, and that’s the truth. “
In a previous episode fans saw Vanessa on a date with fishmonger Richard – and he didn’t hold back with his feedback.
He later told Vanessa in front of agents Paul C Brunson and Anna Williamson: “It was hard to get to know you on a deeper level.
“It was quite hard work, you shot me down and you need to open up a bit more. You checked your phone a lot during the dinner and it was like pulling teeth sometimes. It was a bit unbecoming for someone like yourself.”
Vanessa announced earlier this year she had split from her cheating ex Ben Ofoedu.
And she’s throwing herself in at the deep end to get over her heartbreak.
Speaking to The Sun, she said: “It’s been a revelation in many ways. At the beginning, I was terrified. When you’re in a relationship, one of the great reliefs about that is not having to go on any dates.
“They are the worst thing on earth.
“Either you are into the person, in which case it’s really scary, or you’re not into it, and then it’s deadly boring. Either way, it’s horrible and anything but relaxing.
“But I’ve been on 10 dates now, and having not been on a single date for 17 years, I’m not as scared now as I was then.”
