"I'd obviously want to do it sooner rather than later, but I toy with it right now."

She added: "I'm in a new relationship right now and I feel like saying, if someone's got a problem, why is that?

The broadcaster split with her ex-husband, retired rugby player Paul Sampson, 43, in 2015 after a 15-year relationship. They co-parent two sons Oscar, 14, and Jude, 11.

Kirsty has previously told The Sun that he had finally found herself again after taking some bold decisions to turn her life around.

The TV star said she has come out stronger following "rough patches" in her life, including a drink driving charge shortly after the split.

She said: “I was trying to be everything to everyone and I didn’t have the time to really take stock and think about things.

I just wasn’t very happy a lot of the time, I was just going through the
motions, which isn’t a very healthy way to live and it certainly wasn’t good for me.

"So this has been a fresh start and that feels really good. If I’m honest, that person is unrecognisable to me and that makes me sad because I think of the pain I was going through.

"It was a really sad, painful time, but I’m in a place now where I’m loving my life, I’m happy, doing everything I want to do, which is brilliant.”
