But most notably, Grace, 24, was reported to be in talks for a stint in the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

The Sun on Sunday told how she turned down a place on Strictly Come Dancing, and instead has her eye on Australia, which she thinks would be better for her career in the long run.

Aside from regularly working on her Saving Grace podcast, the star was previously open about her love life.

She previously was in a relationship with a TikTok star Billy Hunt, and it turns out, they met through former Gogglebox star Joe Baggs.

The TV personality previously welcomed her ex-partner on the podcast, where she admitted that she “launched” herself on the internet personality.

Grace admitted: “So my version of events.

“Joe Baggs had a party. [Billy was] the only straight man there, [I] launched myself at him. It’s been history ever since.”

However, only seven months after they recorded the joint podcast, the YouTuber confirmed that they had split up.

After much speculation from her fans, she then spoke directly to her viewers on her podcast in a candid monologue.

Talking directly to the camera, she said: “I just want to start out by addressing the elephant in the room. I am single, and that’s it really. I’m not really going to go into why.

“I know a lot of you want to know why, all the deets, all the gossip, to be honest, I would too. I’m not going to lie, but I will not be speaking about the reasons why.

“I’m just going to leave it as, I’m single, and that’s it. I know I put a lot of my relationship in the public eye. …My bad, I won’t be doing that again!!

“So, you know, a lot of people got invested in it, but I’m happily single. And you know what, I’m in my early 20s.”

I’m just going to leave it as, I’m single, and that’s it.

She added: “I feel like this is a great time to be single for me, I’ve got so much to do, so much to see.

“Maybe I’ll go traveling in Thailand and find myself, I don’t know, but yeah, that’s it. I’m sorry if people wanted the Goss, but I’m just not that type of person.

“So yeah, and I’m drinking champagne and I’m happy. So that’s all that matters, really.”

However, it seems the star has already moved on from her previous relationship and is happily coupled up with someone new.
