Karly's relationship 'better than ever'

Ex-housemate Karly has said that her relationship with Kenneth is "better than ever" after their appearances on Big Brother.

According to The Sun, her time in the house made her appreciate everything she had on the outside.

"I really missed Ken and what I had with him, and I really missed my family," she said.

The glamour model has just returned from Portugal, where she has reportedly been shooting her own calendar.

Boyfriend Kenneth, who escaped over the garden wall after just a week in the house, also defended their relationship.

Kenneth received criticism for flirting with other housemates when Karly was evicted just moments after he entered the compound.

He said: "I'm a changed man. I learnt my lesson from the show. I admit I was bad, but I have changed."

Speaking about rumours that the pair are engaged, he laughed: "Believe me if we were then there would have been more of a fanfare."

Currently filming for an ITV1 series, Kenneth stated that he would be pursuing more television work, but his main interest was to support Karly.
