Fiona previously said: “I’m not interested in doing reality TV for the sake of it – it would have to be the right one.”

Olympia, 23, is the sister of pop star Holly Valance, 33, and plays Paige Smith in Neighbours, the same soap on which her big sister shot to fame.

She is no stranger to taking her clothes off having recently shot a campaign for lingerie brand Gossard.

She said: “It has been quite a liberating thing to do, taking off your gear and wearing sexy undies. I’ve loved it. I didn’t think that I’d do anything like that but it has made me love my body in a way I never used to.”
