Ferne McCann reveals her West End ambitions in tonight’s episode of First Time Mum.
First Time Mum continues this evening (Wednesday, April 22) at 9PM on ITVBe.
Tonight, Ferne meets with two theatrical agents as she chases her dreams of performing on the West-End stage.
She says: “When I was younger I always had this burning desire to be on stage. I always wanted to perform but I think I got too caught up in school and social life that I didn’t nurture what I wanted to do.
“I’ve never really done a proper audition I’ll be honest… but I feel there’s so much I’d love to do but there’s a block.”
Ferne goes on to suggest there’s a “snobbery” about reality stars breaking into a new industry.
She says: “That does make me feel uneasy. I’m sure there’s a lot of people thinking ‘She can’t act or sing’ but I’m here to prove them wrong.”
