Denise Van Outen signs up to online dating app

OHMYGOSSIP — Denise Van Outen has signed up to online dating.
The ‘Celebrity Gogglebox’ star – who will appear alongside Duncan James on the Channel 4 show as the Blue singer replaces her ex Eddie Boxshall – has revealed she’s preparing to change her “old fashioned” approach in the search for love.
Appearing on Fearne Cotton’s ‘Happy Place’ podcast, she said: “I did download a dating app the other day but I haven’t gone on it. I’m too scared.
“It would be my first ever. I’ve never done it before. I know it is the modern way but I’m also very old fashioned – my morals, my values, the way I approach relationships.
“I don’t know if I’ll be ready to swipe just yet. But I’m definitely getting there, because two months ago I wouldn’t have even considered it.”
Denise and Eddie split in January after seven years together, and she has turned to therapy to help her with the aftermath of the breakup.
She explained “I wouldn’t say I’m fully healed but I am getting there. Also, for the first time in my life, I’m doing therapy.
“I wanted to start to understand why there seems to be a pattern as well, not just on the other side of it, but on my side.
“I’m a bit of a fixer, I try to fix people and sometimes it’s too my detriment.
“I don’t know if some of it is because I’ve been working from such a young age so maybe my persona and way I am is to be, ‘Everything’s great, everything’s fine’, when they’re not.”
Denise – who has 12-year-old daughter Betsy with her ex Lee Mead – previously broke her silence about why she ended things with her 48-year-old ex, and explained how “proud” she was of herself.
She said: “The one thing I’m really proud of myself for is I do know when to walk away and I don’t like to be taken advantage of. I’ve always tried to maintain that in anything that I do in life, generally.
“More so now as a mother because I feel like I’m a role model and I’ve got to set an example. The bad times are always followed by good times and that’s what I always look forward to. I think you just ride the wave of the bad times knowing that eventually you will get to a good place.”
