Shannon, who used to be a glamour model when she was aged 18-19, said: “I loved those days, I’ve got nothing to be ashamed of, they were my glory days. Now I’m more on Instagram/ YouTube. I’ve done a bit of commercial modelling. I can DJ as well.”
In terms of a romantic partner she says: "I don’t feed off looks, I feed off energy. I need someone with personality. Just someone I can have fun with.

"I’m not just going to go with anyone because they’re convenient. I need to make sure they’re for me. Looks – obviously, they’ve got to be handsome, but if he’s a handsome hunk but it’s like talking to a brick wall and I’d rather watch paint dry, it’s not going to be great.”
Shannon has been isolating for the last week ahead of the show, which starts on Monday.
