Bardsley, 23, the daughter of The Real Housewives of Cheshire star Tanya Bardsley and step-daughter of footballer Phil Bardsley, pleaded guilty to drink-driving last year after she was caught nearly three-and-a-half times over the limit while trying to break through police blockade in her Audi.

At her sentencing in July, magistrates said they had considered the option of a jail sentence but also took account of her previous good character.

They handed Bardsley a 12-month community order and she was ordered to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work.

In pictures on Saturday, Bardsley - who was initially rumoured to be heading into the Love Island villa last summer - was seen working at The Salvation Army charity shop in Wilmslow after being sentenced to the unpaid work.

Bardsley wore a fur coat as she sat on a chair in the charity shop scrolling through her phone.

'These are issues that can be ventilated at sentencing,' he said.

Mr Hughes added that he hoped the author of the report would have a community order at the 'forefront of their mind' when recommending a sentence.

Bardsley had been tipped to be part of last year's Love Island line-up and has previously turned down invitations to go on the show, but she did not feature in the end. 

'Gabriella's already said no to Love Island and we do need to get her a boyfriend,' her mother Tanya told Closer Magazine.

Speaking of the family's new TV series she added: 'Gabriella just lives in fairy land anyway.

'So it's just another nice thing, you know, a little fairy land.'
