Cara said that she had to mute a lot of people on Instagram, as she felt upset seeing pictures of people all glammed up at events.

However, she revealed that one day she had an "epiphany".

"I thought, why am I trying to compete with all these people because that's not where I am in my life", she said.

"I'm now a mum, I've got a normal mum body and it took that change in my brain to realise that this is my life now and I should be happy."

Cara said that this change in her way of thinking helped her to become much happier.

She said that it took a long time for her to get her head around being a mother, and the responsibility that comes with it but became much happier when she came to terms with it.

During her pregnancy with Freddie, now 7, Cara and Nathan split up, as Cara was feeling lonely after moving to Essex, and she said that Nathan didn't understand her.

However, she said that this was the best thing that ever happened to them.

She said that they had just stayed together for work purposes and had been arguing a lot.

While Nathan also said life after the villa isn't all it's cracked up to be.

The star admitted he was left feeling ‘hurt’ and ‘ashamed’ as his dreams of mega fame rapidly disappeared following the show.

Speaking to fellow Islander Scott Thomas on his podcast , he compared himself to Woody in Toy Story when a new toy came along as he described how the new Islanders stole his limelight.

He said: “I remember six months down the line I met with my agent and they said no one really want to pursue you guys anymore, I think they want to wait for the next years to come along. And that hurt."

He decided to return to his day job as a builder shortly after.

 "I went back to work with my dad, it hurt. I felt ashamed, I didn't want people to see me back in my work clothes. I would wear a tracksuit on the train and go to work and change,” he added.
