TOWIE star Saffron Lempriere has given viewers a glimpse into her love life on more than one occasion – most recently when she opened up about her fling with a raunchy renderer last year – but it seems that things have taken a turn for the worse following their split as the reality icon has admitted that things have been lacking in the romance department.

While she’s hoping to find her Mr Right this year, Saffron explained that her role on TOWIE can make it harder to meet men as they can be “intimidated” her.

She even teased that she could appear on another of our reality telly faves in search of her happy ever after while beamoaning her “s**t” love life.

Saffron said, “I’m ready to find someone. If I found the right man, I’d date him on TOWIE. It’d be a great thing for them to follow on camera.

“It’s hard because men around Essex who are over 30 tend to have jobs and are settled, so they’re not going to come and film some TOWIE scenes and then go to work, are they? I’d love to find my dream man this year though, I’ve had a shit love life.”

Saffron confessed she’d “love” to follow in the footsteps of Essex legends like Amy Childs and Lauren Goodger by appearing on Celebs Go Dating.

She told OK!, “I need a bit of advice from the gurus. I do find it harder to date being on TV. People can be a bit intimidated and might want a private life. I’ve always been in long relationships, so I don’t know the dating game, I’d be terrified of going on a dating app or walking into a bar looking for a man.”

Saffron’s comments come after she revealed she’d fallen out with Junaid Ahmed over his friendship with TOWIE newbies Becks Bloomberg and Livvy Jay after Becks allegedly sent Saffron “a lot of shitty messages” while her friend was dating Saff’s ex.

Becks and Saffron are yet to come face-to-face on the show, but – in true TOWIE style – we’re sure it won’t be long before they’re hashing it out on camera.

Saffron has never named the ex in question, but one of her ex-boyfriends did previously appear on the show in a, frankly, iconic exchange.

The pair met up a few years after their split to finally get some closure on the situation when Saffron declared, “I'm ready to be civil now. I'm healed. I know I was the best thing that happened to you."

We love to see the confidence and so did everybody else when the scene aired, just checking out the TOWIE post you can see the comments section was filled with praise for Saffron.

"Yes Saff !!! 🙌🙌" wrote one with another agreeing, "YAAASSS girl!"
