Celebrity Big Brother’s Austin Armacost reveals he’s asexual and like a ‘nun in bed’ after split from husband
But the star also admits he's signed up to dating app Grindr
AUSTIN Armacost has revealed he's asexual and like a "nun in bed" after splitting from husband Jake Lees.
The model who re-entered the Celebrity Big Brother house on Tuesday night made the surprising revelation, adding: "I'm just not that into it."
Austin, 28, who split from his personal trainer husband Jake Lees last year, confided: "I am very asexual person.
"I am probably in all honesty the least sexual people you will ever meet.
"As much as I love getting my kit off and showing my bum everywhere, I am like a nun in bed."
Chatting to former Big Brother star and showbiz reporter Andy West, Austin went on: "I am not going to go out with someone and have sex with them. Even after a fourth or fifth date - that’s not what I want. I want a nice man! It has little to do with physicality.
"It has a lot to do with them as a human being. I have met lovely single guys who are fit as f*** who I am not interested in.
"And then I have met men who don’t have the best bodies and I am enthralled by them. Intelligence intrigues me. Laughing intrigues me."
