Mark Wright has revealed that he has banned himself from dating Take Me Out contestants.

The former Only Way Is Essex star secured a presenting role on spinoff Take Me Out: The Gossip after finishing second on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here in December.

The new show will feature backstage news, behind-the-scenes footage and interviews from Club Fernandos, but Wright has insisted that he'll remain strictly professional in his role.

"Take Me Out girls may be looking for Mr Right - but it's not Mark Wright," he told The Sun.

"I'm single but there is no way I am dating anyone from the show. I'm working and I am too professional. It's not happening."

Speaking of co-host Zoe Hardman, he added: "I think this could be Zoe's big break. She's really good, we got on so well - she's great."

Wright also confessed that he is "nervous" about his debut presenting role since the show is brand new and yet to be established.

Wright was spotted kissing a mystery brunette at an Essex nightclub last week, despite reports he'd reunited with ex-girlfriend Lauren Goodger.

Take Me Out returns to ITV1 at 7.30pm tonight (Saturday), followed by Take Me Out: The Gossip on ITV2 at 8.30pm.
