I’ve been celibate for over 3 years – Tulisa reveals
I'm A Celeb's Tulisa has revealed she's been celibate for over three years as she came out as demisexual during Tuesday night's episode of I'm A Celebrity.
The N-Dubz star, 36, admitted that the thought of being with someone makes her feel ‘physically sick’ as she discussed her love life with her campmates.
In the peak of her fame, Tulisa endured a very high-profile court case after her ex boyfriend Justin Edwards who she had broken up with in 2009 – released a sex tape of her in 2012.
She previously told how she felt ‘judged, disgusting and ashamed’ because of the ordeal and said it has taken her ‘many years’ to come to terms with and get over.
Tulisa shared with her campmates that she has no interest in dating anyone, admitting ‘I’m proper guarded’.
As the talk in camp turned to relationships, Dean McCullough said: ‘I actually do enjoy being single, I enjoy being on my own.’
As Alan Halsall admitted he’d ‘never been on dating apps before’, Dean turned to Tulisa and joked: ‘We’ve done them all, haven’t we babes.’
Tulisa said: ‘No I’ve only done Raya [celebrity dating app]. I’m not really a dater, even though I’ve been on there, I’ve never gone on an actual date with anyone on there… I’m proper guarded.’
She added: ‘I feel like I’m demisexual, I need to have a really close emotional bond with someone.’
Demisexuality is a sexual orientation where a person only experiences sexual attraction after forming a strong emotional connection with someone.
Dean said: ‘You need meaning babe.’
‘I need actual depth. I’m a slow, slow burner, I’ve been celibate for over three years’, Tulisa revealed.
‘I’m not an overly sexualised person. For me, it’s all about the connection and the emotions that I feel with someone and then wanting to express them in that way.’
