Explaining how she's been single for a 18-months, Jess gushed over Jennifer Aniston (age 47) and how she recently stood up for women who don't have children.

She said: "Jenifer Aniston’s post was so liberating.

"I’ve been single for a year and a half and I’ve always got this thing where people give you pity. My family and friends say: ‘oh you not found anyone yet?’

"But I’m not actively looking.

"Right now I’m doing me.

"I think it’s liberating what Jenifer Aniston did and that she didn’t come out of the Brad Pitt thing and rush into something else and get married and have four kids."

The panel were eager to compare Jess' situation with that of Mark, who wed soap star Michelle Keegan last year in a glitzy Essex ceremony.

Probing as to whether whispers their relationship is on the rocks are accurate, Jess hit back.

She said: "They're amazing and very happy and very in love. they are so sick of hearing the rumours and they're great.
