In response to a fan's messaged, Scarlett added: "We are gutted to, thought my Mam and dad (and little Ava) would still be able to do it but we will still be watching." [sic]. Meanwhile, it seems the reality TV star's career is really taking off as she recently landed a role on two big new shows for Channel 4.

"I can't believe Channel 4 have asked me to present this iconic show," Scarlett said of her new hosting job. "I remember watching Davina on Streetmate when I was younger and thinking, 'Females can present entertainment shows too. I want to do that when I am older.' It's such a fun show and it's two of my favourite things to do; chat to randomers and a love story."
