Myleene Klass was launched into fame in the early noughties in one of the first reality TV shows, Popstars.
The 45-year-old won the competition in 2001, joining the band Hear'Say, who shot to number one with their debut single “Pure and Simple”.
The following year, the band split and Klass embarked on a solo career as a classical musician, signing a five-album deal.
After this, Myleene independently released two solo classical albums in 2003 and 2007.
Since then she has embarked on a range of impressive endeavours and amassed a jaw-dropping fortune, with a reported net worth of £4m.
Bodyguard Graham Quinn
Myleene started dating Graham in 2000 after meeting through his work as a bodyguard.
They were together for years and share two daughters – Ava, 14, and Hero, 11.
They tied the knot in 2011 but their marriage hit the rocks and they divorced in 2013.
The star has since spoken out about Graham, who reportedly faced drug charges before they met.
Myleene told the Mirror in 2015 that she “didn’t sign a pre-nup”, adding: “What was I thinking?”
Mysterious Scandinavian
After the end of her relationship with Graham, Myleene did step out with a Scandinavian man for several months.
Asked by the Mirror if she would ever reveal his identity, she replied: “No! I did such a good job of keeping it quite private, didn’t I? But honestly, it was a lovely relationship that gave me faith in people again.”
Simon Motson
In 2022 Myleene Klass got engaged to boyfriend of five years, Simon Motson.
The PR executive proposed to Myleene on their fifth anniversary.
The pair met in autumn 2015 shortly after Simon had split from his wife.
Myleene found happiness with Simon after her previous marriage to bodyguard Graham collapsed.
Myleene and Simon share baby son Apollo, who was born in August 2019.
Impressive career
Following her time as a pop star, the mum-of-three has focused mainly on her presenting career.
In recent years, she has been a successful TV and radio presenter, hosting a number of TV shows including The One Show, Loose Women, Popstar to Operastar and BBQ Champ.
Klass has also dipped her toes into various reality tv shows, in 2006, she was a contestant on I'm a Celeb, finishing in second place behind Matt Willis.
She became a household name after her bikini-shower scenes that season brought in thousands of viewers.
So much so that wearing a bikini in the I’m A Celeb shower is now dubbed ‘doing a Myleene’ and has been recreated by many a female celeb since.
The star went on to compete in Dancing On Ice in January 2021, however, she fell at the first hurdle and was eliminated later that month.
Since 2014 Myleene has been a presenter on Smooth Radio.
And now, the musician is giving I'm A Celebrity another go in the South African all-stars series.
But she has warned viewers not to expect the same shower scenes.
Ahead of entering the camp, Myleene explained: "After doing the programme I saw the photo and I was like 'my goodness', it does look glamorous, but it certainly didn't feel like it - far from it!
"There are worse things to be known for than being really clean! Since then, I have had three babies and I don't look like that now."
She added: "I am really proud of how strong my body has been. It has been through lots of trials and tribulations since and part of the reason for doing this all star version is I want to remind myself of that."
I'm A Celebrity... South Africa continues 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
