New couple alert: Jodie Marsh and Kirk Norcross pose in their first photoshoot as a couple in the new issue of Reveal magazine

The unlikely pair spoke out about their new romance as they posed for their first photoshoot as a couple for Reveal magazine.
She told the new issue of the magazine: 'I’ve had a lot of bad experiences with men who turned out to be weirdos. So last year something switched in my brain and I just decided to save myself for someone special.'

When asked if nightclub manager Kirk could be that 'someone special', she replied: 'I think he could be. But I honestly don’t know. I’ve been celibate for so long that I feel like a virgin again. And I’m a bit scared of sex now. I’m scared of giving myself to someone.'

 

Over-sharing? Jodie and Kirk live-tweeted one of their first dates earlier this month

Kirk joked: 'I can’t even say we’re friends with benefits because I’m not getting the benefits.'
When Kirk asks Jodie during the interview when they will be able to sleep together, she replied: 'I want you to say you love me, that you want to marry me and have babies...'

The couple have been acquainted for years as Jodie used to be a regular of Kirk's father Mick's Sugar Hut nightclub in Brentwood.
But they got back in contact when she made a guest appearance on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year - which featured Kirk as a housemate.
But it appears the couple have been dating since they both appeared on Big Brother's Bit On The Side on July 3.
They ended up having a hot date at Jodie's house two days later, which they live tweeted with a selection of photos.
Jodie said: 'Right nobody disturb us. Me and @kirk_official are having a spooning session on the sofa with a film. We're too tired to go out.'
Kirk then added: 'Having a spooning session with @JodieMarsh watching a film! #MmmmNice did someone say #50ShadesOfKirk ;-).'
After warning he was 'moving in for the kill', Jodie then posted a photo of them actually kissing.
Jodie boasted: 'Snogs :-) first kiss I've had in about a year. Yikes. Was very nice actually. He's good.'
However, confusing Kirk tweeted on July 12 that he was single.
He wrote: 'Just for the record guys i am single, you are allowed to kiss a girl and still be mate ‪(sic) #Jeeeez.'
Kirk is no stranger to conducting a romance in the public eye - he previously dated Amy Childs and Lauren Pope on-screen in TOWIE.
