Chanelle Hayes may have found success after appearing on Big Brother in 2007, but the mum-of-two is no longer interested in the lime light. Instead, Chanelle, 34, has told new magazine that she has made the decision to pursue a career in nursing instead. “I’m on placement now for three months at a hospital – I’m really enjoying it," Chanelle explained.
"I needed to do something worthwhile and use my brains. When the kids started school I thought it was the perfect opportunity to get a degree." The star said she no longer sees herself as the same person who shot to fame on Big Brother.

And while Chanelle has had a new boyfriend for 18 months, the star remained tight lipped about his identity. Still, she did admit that she is "very happy" and while she's ruled out any more children, she would get married if it was a small affair. “Covid has put me off having really big events.
You realise who is important to you and you can count your friends on one hand, so I don’t think it would be a big, lavish thing,” she says. “It would be a party with friends.” In 2020, Chanelle underwent gastric sleeve surgery and has now lost 8.5st. “I’ve got more energy to do things with the kids – I can actually fit inside play gyms with Frankie,” Chanelle explains.
