As I sit and host the show, I often find myself wondering, "how on earth did I end up here?"
The woman from Bristol also expressed her encouragement to Holly Willoughby when she was going through tough times before and after Schofield left.

Notable achievement: A member of the popular group JLS.

Camp contribution: I hope to serve as a source of comfort and a facilitator.
Apart from my relatives, what will I miss greatly during my stay at the camp? Definitely my fantasy football application! It's something I'm completely engrossed in. It's also going to be challenging being without music for four whole weeks.
