Olivia said she can’t wait to be back and work with the This Morning presenters again, particularly Dermot O’Leary, who she said was a “dream to work alongside.”
She exclusively told The Sun: “I loved it and luckily they loved me, which was all I was worried about, because it doesn’t matter if I like it, if they don’t like me, and they were happy.
“And I did my slots I had over summer, and now, you know, from their side and our side, we’d like it to be a repeat thing.
“It’s just now I think they’re going back into regular scheduling with Cat and Ben.
“So I think it’s more just where and when I could pop back in, and obviously around the other things I’m doing.
“But I loved it, and Dermot was just the dream to work alongside.
“Like, honestly, I have so much respect for him as a broadcaster, and it was surreal, I really enjoyed it.
“So yeah, hopefully I’ll be able to do a few more.”
The reality star is brushing off criticism of her daring wardrobe choices.
She was told to “dress appropriately” by shocked fans after flashing her bum in a “thirst trap” video.
She was slammed by viewers for wearing a very short skirt after sharing a clip of her outfit while visiting the swanky Dorchester hotel in London.
She could be seen skipping up some steps, flashing her bottom in the process.
Olivia sported the white miniskirt alongside a striped jumper and some yellow flat pumps.
She wore her blonde locks in a half up, half down style, as she showed off her long pins and slender figure.
Olivia Attwood’s Career History
From Monster grid girl and Love Island star to daytime telly panellist and respected documentary maker, Olivia Attwood has made a huge career pivot in recent years…
Olivia first started as a Monster grid girl at motorsport events in 2012 when she was 19-years-old, and did it right up until she went into Love Island in 2017.
After placing third in the reality show with then-boyfriend Chris Hughes, she starred in their own spin-off series, Chris & Olivia: Crackin’ On, in 2018.
Later that year, she appeared on Celebs Go Dating and then joined the cast of The Only Way Is Essex in 2019, where she had a number of fiery on-screen rows.
In 2020, the reality TV veteran began starring in her own reality series on ITVBe titled Olivia Meets Her Match, which followed her wedding preparations with footballer Bradley Dack.
In 2021, the tide started to turn.
Olivia made appearances on household shows Lorraine, Tipping Point: Lucky Stars and Loose Women.
Then, in 2022, ITV commissioned her for her first ever documentary series.
She presented Olivia Attwood: Getting Filthy Rich, which explored women selling sexual content online.
In June 2023, ITV commissioned Olivia Marries Her Match and made her a regular guest panellist on Loose Women.
Her most recent docu-series, Olivia Attwood: The Price of Perfection, aired in January this year where she sensitively explored the cosmetic industry.
“I fear this turned into an *accidental* thirst trap,” she penned in the caption of the clip.
Although many fans were no doubt happy for the cheeky display, some were stunned and quick to critique the look.
“Too much. Dress appropriate,” said one person.
“Too short,” added a second.
A third penned: “Nice outfit but can see your knickers.”
While a fourth said: “Bit short for the Dorchester, apart from that love it x.”
And a fifth added: “I love the outfit but the skirt is too short for my taste! You look amazing though!”
But others loved the ensemble, with one writing: “If I looked like you I’d wear that outfit too.”
While a second added: “Love it, preppy but cheeky.”
Olivia revealed her huge new telly role in June before exclusively telling The Sun she has “put the work in” for the plum broadcasting job.
She said: “Those who know me understand the hard work I’ve put in to get where I am today.
“I’m forever grateful to Love Island for being the springboard to my career, but I’m excited to show there’s so much more to me beyond the villa.”
She continued: “It’s been a lot of hard work, but I’ve always stayed focused on my goals and believed in myself and I’m very thankful for ITV in believing me.”
