And it sounds like Georgia is happy out as a single lady.
She told podcast host Rebecca Adams that she's been in relationships since she was 14.

"I feel like the past year I’ve learnt so much about myself."

But she said things are really looking up, "I would definitely say that now, I am almost there."
"I feel like the future is bright, there’s good things ahead."

She said, "My other previous relationship that I was in was also from a reality show."
"I do feel like obviously there is pros and cons to meeting someone on a reality show."

Georgia continued, "Last one I did I was in a house, Ex On The Beach, and it moved very very quickly."
"You get to know each other very quickly and you’re constantly together so you build something really quick."
"However, I would also say that the cons of it is that it’s not a normal environment."

"So, when you come out, it can be really really different and you see certain aspects of that person you didn’t see when you were in the house let’s say, or the villa, or wherever you are."
"Whereas in reality, without the show, you get to know that person slowly."
"So it’s completely different," she insisted.
