Judi explained: “The other day I was going to close down my Twitter account as I feel like Twitter can be harsh.

“I did an all black panel of Loose Women and I had racist tweets. People were like ‘why are they all black?’ but it was just how the rota went.

“We came and the show was great. There are times when I can’t be arsed with Twitter and there are times when I’m like ‘no I’m not going to let them win’.”

Teamed up with Virgin Media O2 and Get Online Week, Judi is keen to encourage people to use the internet for good rather than pay attention to its darker side.

In particular, the star is hoping singletons get online to try and find the one.

Over past few week a string of celebs have turned to dating app Raya in a bid to find the one.

Fellow comedian Mo Gilligian has been seen on the platform as well as Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle and Spice Girl Mel C.

Like Tinder, Raya offers users the chance to swipe and match each other before chatting. However, crucially users are vetted like members club.

Talking about the app, Judi said: “I’ve not tried a dating app like Raya. I think for me, I would know most of the people who are on there but one of my rules about online dating is to find an app that best suits you, be it age, religion or privacy.”

Admitting life in the pubic eye makes is much harder to date – regardless of getting online or not – Judi continued: “I have been on awkward dates.

“One the guy just dint have conversation it was like pulling teeth. It was so not good.

“This was before Loose Women but now I think now if anyone is in the public eye it is very channelling as you are so busy and we don’t have normal hours.

“Look, I can’t even tell people what I am doing in two weeks. Anything can change.

“One week you can be really busy and then the next you’re completely free and want to see them all the time.

“It’s a balance and people in the public eye they worry about how vulnerable you can be. They worried about being exposed and their privacy.”
