ok.co.uk:

From Love Island to I'm A Celeb, Olivia Attwood is no stranger to reality television. And the star is once again returning to the small screen, but this time it's under hosting duties for her new ITV reality show, Bad Boyfriends.The show sees eight unsuspecting boys sent to Greece by their girlfriends to whip them into shape after some bad behaviour.

And talking exclusively to OK! about the new release, Olivia admits her own experience with some bad boyfriends makes her the perfect person to help these relationships out. "I'm the host of the show but I'm also really involved, I'm in the house with them every day and I help through my own relationship experiences, which are extensive! "We've all had cr** relationships, me included, so I wanted the girls to know that there's nothing to be ashamed of or feel bad about," says Olivia, who is now happily married to footballer Bradley Dack.The former Love Island star is keen to stress that she doesn't dip in and out to present the show, but is along for the whole ride with the contestants. "I wanted my DNA on this show, I wanted to get to know the contestants and be a shoulder to cry on rather than just host and then leave." And while the men may have arrived as bad boyfriends, Olivia admits that she was impressed with their progress. "A lot of men are very, very untapped with their emotions, and they're very closed up.

Society teaches men to push everything really right down. So here, we have scenes where the guys unlock their emotions and be really raw. "I find it very emotional, it melted my little black heart a bit.

I felt very privileged that they felt safe to do that there." Olivia's new show comes after a string of successful documentaries fronted by the reality star,.
