At the age of 44, Lisa Snowdon believes she has left it too late to start a family. The I'm A Celebrity star, who recently found love with George Smart, made the frank admission to campmate Ola Jordan during Thursday night's episode of the show, as talk between the two women turned to children.
"Not now," Lisa replied, when asked by 34-year-old Ola if she wanted a family of her own. "It's a weird one because it's so hard. I left it kind of late.

"I didn't find anyone that I wanted to actually be with and I didn't want to have kids to just…"
"Have kids," said Ola. "Yeah. I wanted that unit kind of thing," Lisa admitted. "I feel like maybe not in this lifetime now."

Speaking later in the Bush Telegraph, the former model – who previously dated George Clooney – added: "Children enrich your life so much, so of course I wanted to be a mum. But it didn't work out for me in that way.

"It's tricky. It is hard. It's not like I’ve got a heart of stone where it's like, 'No, I don't need them. I don't want them in my life.' It's been something that I've had to deal with. It's not always as simple as, 'I didn't want children.'"
Former Strictly dancer Ola, meanwhile, admitted she "would love" to start a family with her husband of 13 years, fellow dancer James Jordan. And Gogglebox favourite Scarlett Moffatt revealed that she also dreams of becoming a mother. "Oh yeah. I want my own little tribe definitely," the 25-year-old said. "I would like at least two kids because I was [like] an only child.
Lisa has been happily dating George Smart since last year
"My little sister wasn't born until I was 16, so I'd like them to have a couple of years between them so they have a play mate."
