Speaking on best’s new podcast Suddenly Single, Katie confessed she was instantly attracted to JJ after watching him on MAFS.

"I watched him on there and I thought phwoar," she remarked. "I just thought 'Oh he’s very quiet, but there’s something about him'."

Detailing how they’ve managed to make their relationship last over the past six months, Katie explained she’s never been with someone like JJ before.

"He’s different to anyone," she said. "Some people might say he’s quite vanilla for me, but I don’t care."

Listing off JJ’s positive traits, she continued: "He’s calm, kind, not on my case, he makes me laugh, I don’t feel any agenda, no drama, he gets on with the kids, lets me go to work, doesn’t drive me mad, and it’s just easy.

"It’s just calm and peace - and I need that," the former I’m A Celeb star enthused.

Addressing the age gap in their relationship, Katie explained she likes the fact JJ is younger than her as she describes herself as "quite energetic".

"There’s 15 years between me and JJ but I’ve never done the 15 years above me," she said. "I always think they groan when they put their socks on and won’t have as much energy as me."

Katie opens up further about her life and relationships in her new autobiography This Is Me. The new book sees the star reflect on the highs and lows of her personal life and turbulent career.
