‘It’s been a tough time personally for me recently. It’s just so painful,’ Nadia said.

Dressed in a white T-shirt, chic beige jacket and jeans, the mother-of-two added that she hopes starring on the Seven show will get her back ‘out there’.

‘I’m hoping with Ladies’ Night it will give me more confidence,’ she said. ‘Obviously we’re there for the cause [raising awareness for breast cancer], but I think it will be great for me to put myself out there.

‘[It’s about] doing something that is definitely totally out of my comfort zone. I think it will give me a whole new load of confidence.’
