Speaking to Wonderland magazine she admitted that she has no regrets about her head-scratching comments on the show and says: ‘I don’t regret nothing.

‘I’ve come across as the fun character, the nice person. Sometimes I think, ‘Amy, you’ve got to think before you speak’, but at the end of the day that’s me and I let it all out.

But she does admit that perhaps her Essex girl look is just a little over the top.

‘The only thing is my make-up,’ she says. ‘Sometimes I think, ‘My god Amy, why do you wear that much make-up?’
