Attempting to remain tight-lipped, she joked: "I was really contained and found my filter. Watch this space. He'd be really good, it's a good idea."
Referencing her former co-star, she added: "We'll miss David, but it's a good idea."

Back in December 2022, the comedian was forced to step down after 10 years on the show, following the release of a leaked transcript in which he could be heard insulting two contestants with expletive comments.

David previously apologised following the leaked transcripts and released a statement which read: "I would like to apologise to the people I made disrespectful comments about during breaks in filming for Britain's Got Talent in 2020. These were private conversations and - like most conversations with friends - were never intended to be shared. Nevertheless, I am sorry."
A spokesperson for ThamesTV added: "Although relating to a private conversation almost three years ago, the language used was inappropriate. Even though it was private, those involved have been spoken to and reminded of their responsibilities and the show's expectations as to future professional conduct."
