VANESSA Feltz showed off her cheeky side as she sought dating advice from reality star James Argent after signing up to Celebs Go Dating.

The TalkTV star was left flirting up a storm with the ex TOWIE legend as she asked him to spill his secrets from his time on the popular E4 dating programme.

Vanessa, 61, is on the lookout for love following her devastating split from ex Ben Ofedu and has turned to one of the dating hit's previous stars for some words of encouragement.

James appeared to be getting a haircut as Vanessa stood behind him as she attempted to find some answers out from him on how to approach the programme.

The TV presenter said: "Here's my Celebs Go Dating expert, give me a hot tip!"

Laughing back, Arg joked that he "didn't know about that" as he offered up some words of wisdom.

He told the acclaimed broadcaster: "I would say, obviously, be yourself Vanessa, you are looking amazing!"

Arg then added: "Just enjoy it, open mind, give people a chance, there might be some people you might initially meet and I don't know, you might go on a date with them..."

Laughing, she then asked whether the TV star had found "true love", which he confessed he did not but insisted that it should not put the TV favourite of the experience as he managed to get "a couple of cheeky snogs".

Vanessa agreed that "cheeky snogs" were better than nothing as she looked forward to her stint on the popular show.

The leading lady of TV looked glamorous in a stunning white dress with yellow detailing as her blonde locks flowed loosely as she placed a supportive hand on Arg's shoulder.

The Sun exclusively revealed that Vanessa would be trying to mend her broken heart by giving the show a go with sources telling us that bosses were over the moon that she had signed on the dotted line.

A TV insider said: “When Vanessa was first approached to do the show, she wasn’t 100% sure as the break-up was very fresh and she didn’t want to rush into anything.

“Now she has had time to think about it and she’s decided to give it a whirl. Her relationship coming to a devastating, unexpected end after 16 years has made her realise that life is short and you have to grab opportunities when they come your way.

“She’s not necessarily expecting to find her soulmate, but she’s also keeping an open mind as stranger things have happened. At 61 years old, she wants to have fun, live life and try new things -  and this fits the bill perfectly.”

Execs at Channel 4, meanwhile, are rubbing their hands together at landing such a big name as The Sun previously revealed Vanessa had been top of their wish list for months.

Vanessa will be in good company as OnlyFans model Lottie Moss has signed up to the show alongside Love Island legends Chloe Burrows and Adam Collard as well as comedian Spuddz and TV star Mark-Francis Vandelli.

The Sun on Sunday revealed earlier this year how Vanessa discovered a trail of emails and social media messages leading her to uncover several of Ben’s infidelities.

Vanessa told us at the time: “It’s a lot to deal with — a shock like this takes some adjusting to — but I am extremely sad and disappointed that my 16-year relationship with Ben is over.

“As an agony aunt I have said many times that once the trust in a relationship is gone, it can never be repaired or regained."
