She said: “I don’t want to live with anyone again – that doesn’t interest me at all as I like my own space.
“I would like someone to go on holidays with the odd time for companionship – and I wouldn’t mind the odd bit of you know what now and then.
“Your sex drive peaks in your 30s and 40s, apparently,” she told Woman’s Way magazine.
The Ireland AM host admitted she hasn’t been on a date at all this year.
“To be honest, I haven’t been on a date so far this year. At my age, I’m kind of in ‘divorce season’ as a lot of people I know are breaking up.
“The more I look around, the more I think I might have dodged a bullet.
“Sometimes, it seems like drudgery – working all day and coming home to do all the chores, and like it or not, the burden usually falls to women.
“Then it’s wash, rinse and repeat, which doesn’t sound ideal at all.”
But the 45-year-old detailed what she is looking for in a man.
“If I was ever to start seeing anyone again, he’d want to be very confident in himself, very self-assured, no insecurities and no bull.
“I want someone who is trustworthy, but don’t want to be living in anyone’s pockets 24/7 either.
“There’s a balance to be had, especially when you’re a bit older looking for a relationship.
“I won’t be holding hands with someone and skipping down the street every morning.”
