Caroline Monk Says Big Brother Ruined Her Career

Big Brother's Caroline Monk has claimed her appearance on the show has made her 'unemployable' after she 'put her foot in it' on the programme.

The series 22 contestant, who appeared on the show last October, took to Instagram to share her fears over being unable to get a job.

The PR exec, 56, insisted she would make the perfect TV or radio presenter and can see herself hosting a podcast, but is only being offered jobs that she doesn't want.

The Wakefield-based star - who was engaged to TV star Matthew Wright - said currently she has only been offered a role at the 'monster mansion' prison near her.

Speaking on her plight, she said: 'So, am I unemployable? Seems like it. Because the only jobs where I live now in Wakefield that I could do or they want me is to be a prison officer.

'Wakefield's got one of the most evil prisons called the monster mansion with all the bad people in, or I might go for a bingo caller - which is only £12 an hour. And it's only 12 hours a week, so that's not going to get the baby bathed is it.

Caroline went on to reveal she is making ends meet by selling her clothes on resale site Vinted and sending out Cameo videos to fans. 

She said: 'I'm selling all my clothes on Vinted, I'm doing the odd cameo, which I really like actually especially if it's a roasting one or a Valentines one is good actually. I'd like to say some really horrible things to nice couples, I don't like nice couples.

'So if you can think of a job that I could do let me know, I think I'd be brilliant as a party host, unbelievable, podcasts, radio, anything like that.

'Have someone who is straight talking, not wokey wokey wokey and funny, I think I'm funny. I laugh all the time at myself, because I'm a f***ing failure. You know that?'

Discussing how her Big Brother appearance has affected her employability, she said: 'I can't even go on Big Brother and do well. I have to put my big feet in my mouth all the bloody time.

'Probably ruined it for myself in there, but that's because I don't think before I talk. 'Everyone says I have . I probably have, I wish I did have a label.

If I'd of said I was a lesbian with ADHD I might have got on. But I haven't got a label so I'm just a silly cow really. That's it, I need to get a label. So if you can think of a job for me and a label, I think I'll be alright.'

Caroline was the ninth contestant to be voted off the show after being dubbed the villain of the series by her housemates and viewers alike.

During her time on the show she revealed her past relationship with Matthew Wright to her fellow housemates as she opened up about their split.

Caroline, nicknamed 'Monkey', previously dated the TV presenter in the noughties and was engaged to the now 60-year-old.

Caroline and Matthew were publicly pictured together on a number of occasions side-by-side beaming for the cameras at red carpets events.

However, after Matthew proposed to the eccentric Big Brother housemate, their relationship soon abruptly came to an end.

Daily Mail previously revealed Caroline would let slip about her famous relationship in the spy house during tonight's episode on .

While in a conversation with Conservative housemate Emily Hewertson, she probes her: 'Were you with Matthew Wright? Or have I made that up?'

Caroline, who has been engaged five times, replies: 'Yes - I was engaged to him.'

Her revelation leaves them stunned as fellow contestant Marcus interrupts: 'What? You were engaged to Matthew Wright?' 

She then explains: 'We went out for quite a long time. He was there the day the surgeon said "you’ve got cancer".

In January 2019 they welcomed their daughter Cassady after eight 'challenging' years of IVF and Matthew revealed Amelia suffered pre-eclampsia before giving birth
