Vicky Pattison blasts exes as she admits she's 'grateful' to husband Ercan for sweet reason

has opened up about her relationship with husband Ercan Ramadam and revealed the adorable impact he's had on her attitude towards men. The former star is hosting E4's new dating show The Honesty Box alongside MAFS Australia's Lucinda Light.

Opening up about being happily married, Vicky said: "I am finally in a really nice place. I'm dead grateful to my husband, he's a lovely man." She added, seemingly taking a pop at her exes: "He has restored my faith in men in general because a lot of them are s***e."

Before tying the knot with Ercan, 41, last summer, Vicky had dated the likes of Geordie Shore co-star Ricci Guarnaccio, ice hockey player James Morgan, TOWIE’s Kirk Norcross and Stephen Bear. When asked whether she had been lied to in previous relationships, Vicky said: "I’ve definitely been lied to. I’ve definitely lied as well so I’m holding my hands up. None of us are perfect and whatever your reasons are behind it, I think we’ve all been guilty of it once in a while."

Meanwhile, her co-host on the show Lucinda opened up about her experience on MAFS Australia with husband Timothy Smith, who failed to find a romantic spark on the show.

"Being on MAFS, I was with somebody that wasn’t quite open to the experience," she said. "I thank him infinitely for saying yes every single week to me, even though he probably wasn’t very attracted to me.

"But that gave me more momentum to stay in the game. I’ve been lied to and so when people are really truthful, even when it does hurt, I respect that deeply."

The Honesty Box sees 12 singles head to a luxury Greek villa in the hopes of finding love - however, in order to win the £100,000, they must avoid lying to their dates as much as possible. For every lie detected by the show's cutting-edge AI , money is deducted from the prize pot.

Reflecting on her Geordie Shore past, Vicky said that she wanted to make sure that the contestants had a better experience on the show than she did on various programmes.

"When I started doing reality TV, it was like the Wild West of reality TV, we were just figuring out so much," Vicky said. There was no duty of care and I personally felt like I didn't have the tools I needed to navigate this new scary space I was in.

"I wore a slightly different hat for this show - I came in as a host for the first ever time ever. I was very passionate about the fact that I was going to be someone that was never there for me.

"We managed their expectations just to give them that level of information, awareness and support I never had because I think I was anxious for about 10 years. I don't want that for them."

The Honesty Box begins on Monday at 9pm on E4.
