“Honestly? I don’t understand it. I haven’t spoken to him since he started dating his girlfriend.
“He got with her and that was that. I thought we were friends. So it’s a bit strange, if not hurtful.
“But I’m always at the end of the phone if he wants to chat, like I always was before. It’s hard to understand,” she added.

And Nadia, 25, insisted she has not slept her way to the top, saying other models in Ireland are just bitchy for suggesting that.
“People have no idea of the amount of hard work that has gone into this. It’s literally been non-stop work for the past year,” she explained.
“If it were down to sleeping your way to the top, then there would be fifty girls in the jungle. Do they have any idea of the process? It’s not that easy.”
“Why do they say these things? I never hear any other model come up against this.”

“I never experience this in the UK. It’s an Irish mentality for sure. Maybe that’s where they are going wrong in the first place.
“They think that’s what it takes. To be honest, I try not to think about it too much,” she explained.
“My friends will sometimes tip me off about it. They know who I really am, though, how I don’t even go on dates anymore, so they get frustrated on my behalf when it’s said to them.”
