RHYL actress Kimberly Hart-Simpson has revealed the reason she signed up for Celebs Go Dating.

The 33-year-old, who played Nicky Wheatley on Coronation Street, is starring in the dating reality series alongside Chloe Ferry, Curtis Pritchard, Tom Zanetti, Sophie Hermann, Wayne Lineker and Karim Zeroual.

Speaking ahead of filming, she said in the promotional video for the show: "I have joined the agency because I'm 33 years old. I live with me mum, erm scared of hairy peaches... and I don't know why I'm single so I need help.

"I'm most excited about going into the house 'cause I'm hoping that people are going to cook for me 'cause I'm a really bad cook and if they don't then I'll ask my dates to cook for me 'cause that will give them extra brownie points.

"I'm excited but but I don't know anything about what to expect other than there is a swimming pool. But I can't swim.

"Deal breakers - people that chew with their mouths open, people that blow their nose in front of me. Can't do that, don't like that, no.

"I'm bisexual so men and women, throw them all at me.

"Not at the same time."

Filming is already underway.

Kimberly, also known for playing Beverley in Hollyoaks and Chantelle in Mount Pleasant, has already moved into the Celebs Go Dating mansion.

Kimberly, a former Rhyl High pupil, tweeted a few days ago that she can't use her phone much but is having 'the best time of her life on Celebs Go Dating'.

She added: "I love living in mansions hunz".

Celebs Go Dating is currently scheduled to return to E4 in early 2021.

The cast have formed a bubble in order to film.

On twitter, the Celebs Go Dating account posted: "Zoom dates? Freezing cold walks? No! We're back with the ultimate dating twist: seven celebs, one mansion and four weeks of love."
