Casey Batchelor doubted whether her relationship with boyfriend Dane Goodson was "going anywhere" after their first date.
The 33-year-old beauty - who is currently pregnant with her first child - has revealed that it took her a while before she considered Dane to be a potential long-term partner.
She confessed: "On our first date, I didn\'t think it was going anywhere. But I got to know him and now we are so happy.
"I was just meant to go through all of those horrible relationships and break-ups and public humiliation to learn lessons, and you find the right person in the end."
But while Casey\'s open-mindedness has helped her to find love, the former \'Celebrity Big Brother\' star has insisted she won\'t be making a return to glamour modelling.
She told talkRADIO: "I\'m in my mid-30s now - I think I\'m past it."
Meanwhile, Casey recently joked that she looks like a "rugby player" with her huge H-cup breasts.
The reality star previously had her assets reduced, but she\'s amazed by how much they\'ve grown during her pregnancy.
Speaking in February, Casey - who is now six months pregnant - said: "My boobs are bigger now than before the breast reduction.
"[They are a] G/H depending on the make of bra. I was a G before and had them reduced to an E. They grew a bit to an F, and now they\'re an H. They\'ll probably go up to a J or something. My frame is quite small and when I\'ve got big boobs it makes me look much bigger. I look like a rugby player!"
