Nicole also revealed the reason behind her move into the fashion industry.

She said: "I’ve always wanted to go into fashion and do my own clothing line but it was just timing, but I’ve had a lot of time to open it and get it sorted."

She told us: "I was on TOWIE last year and I do miss some of the people, I wouldn’t say all of them but I do miss some of them.
