BENEFITS Street star White Dee has revealed that she always gets younger men “sliding into her DMs” as she begged TV bosses to put her on Love Island.
The 50-year-old TV favourite shot to fame in the gritty Channel 4 docu-series back in 2014, and it has changed her life forever.
She went on to enjoy a stint in Celebrity Big Brother, and now reckons she has what it takes to head into the Love Island villa.
Speaking in a new interview, Dee – real name Dee Kelly – explained: “It’s time to have some fun.
“I’m a curvy, sexy, older woman and they say they want diversity on the show – what better way than with me?”
The reality star added to Closer magazine: “I’m a real hit with younger men – they’re always sliding into my DMs!
“So get me in the villa to spice things up.”
Dee is keen to appear on the popular ITV2 dating show despite being in a relationship with 52-year-old Mark for the past nine years.
However, they aren’t married – and Dee joked it’d be “good to keep him on his toes”.
Dee added: “There’s life in this old dog yet.”
Earlier this year, Dee claimed that Benefits Street “ripped her life apart” – and that she has lost contact with her old pals who also appeared on the show.
She said at the time: “The show ripped apart my life at the time. It changed my life forever and it destroyed the James Turner Street I knew before the show.
“I don’t keep in touch with any of the characters featured in the show and in some cases that is a real shame.
“There are still people I do speak to on James Turner Street but none of them appeared on the show.”
Dee has since moved away from the famous street, but is only a few minutes up the road.
