“I understand that people just say things and express their opinions, but I kind of understand now how people feel like there’s no way out and they just want to end it.

“I can understand that if you subscribe to it and read all the comments and things like that, you start to feel really awful as a person, even though you try to forgive yourself and you can’t forgive yourself because no one does. are you going to forgive and then you can’t even forgive yourself.’

It comes after claims that Vanessa has reportedly signed up to appear on Celebs Go Dating after her difficult breakup with Ben.

She apparently made the decision to star on the show after months of talks with show bosses who were eager to sign her on, according to the Sun.

TalkTV host Vanessa, who broke up with Ben in February, is now the first celebrity to agree to star in the new series.

An insider told the publication, “When Vanessa was first approached to do the show, she wasn’t 100% sure because the breakup was still very fresh and she didn’t want to rush into anything.

Now she’s had time to think about it and she’s decided to give it a shot. Her relationship coming to a devastating, unexpected end after 16 years has made her realize that life is short and you have to seize opportunities when they come your way.
