E4’s dating show returned last week with a special series titled The Mansion, in which the celebrities have shacked up with members of the public in a country home in search of love.
During Tuesday’s (2 February) episode of the dating show, the male stars went speed dating, with TV presenter and former Strictly finalist Karim getting to know Jodie by asking if she had any siblings.
“I haven’t got siblings, no,” Jodie answered. “I’ve got three nieces, I try and see them as much as possible.”
“Nice, I’ve got three nephews,” Zeroual responded, before realising her error.
“You’ve got three nieces?” he questioned, with Jodie saying that they came “from my brother”. “So you do have siblings?” Zeroual said, to which Jodie replied: “No, they’re my brother’s children.”
The clip was shared on social media, with one viewer commenting: “Watching #CelebsGoDating and I’m losing my mind.”
“Just watching Celebs Go Dating: The Mansion, can’t stop laughing at this bit,” another fan wrote.
Elsewhere in the series, former Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry, Love Island’s Curtis Pritchard, actor Kimberly Hart-Simpson, Made in Chelsea’s Sophie Hermann, Wayne Lineker and DJ Tom Zanetti are also looking for love.
Celebs Go Dating: The Mansion airs Sunday to Friday at 9pm on E4.
