The 32-year-old has training with her boyfriend Paul Sampson, 30, a former rugby player.

She will co-present the revamped series, set to air on Sky One in May, alongside footballer Ian Wright.

She said: "I'm going to be very active in the show and I want to look good for all those men in tights."

"I grew up with Gladiators so I couldn't be more excited to be involved in the new series.

"It promises to be great entertainment on a major scale and I can't wait to get started."

Original referee John Anderson is returning to the show, in which contestants compete for a £50,000 prize.

Filmed at Shepperton studios, Gladiators is expected to be broadcast in its traditional Saturday primetime slot following a "21st Century makeover".
