Chantelle, 37, said she made the decision after “getting bored” during the lockdown and giving herself a “purpose”.

The reality star unveiled her Q&A session with Body Shop Senior Regional Manager Suzie Palmer on Wednesday, telling fans, “I’m excited to announce that I am a Body Shop advisor at Body Shop at Home work! “

She further recalled, “I’ve loved the Body Shop for years – I remember when I was eight at the Body Shop and my mom tried the makeup on and sprayed all that stuff on.

“I was a vegetarian when I was about seven and gone vegan for the past five years. Lockdown, work, you can’t get out of your house, I was just so bored!”

“The whole mental health thing … you have to focus on something.

“I want to make money, who doesn’t want to make money? Let’s be honest! ‘

Chantelle, who is currently planning her wedding to her fiancé Michael Strutt, admitted that she hoped working for the Ethical Beauty brand would give her “purpose”.

She said, “When you are a new mom or you have a second or third baby, you somehow lose your identity. When you join something like this, it gives you a purpose and it’s that simple.

She hopes the new role will be hers

“I lost a lot of confidence years ago, but even for the past few weeks I feel like I am waking up in the morning and I have some sort of focus instead of just being the mother at home that I am right now. “

The reality favorite added, “With this whole pandemic, the work isn’t really there, you can’t do your daily job so it’s just nice to see how other people are really doing well.”

In June 2020, it was revealed that Chantelle was engaged to Michael after just three months.

The two have known each other as friends for nine years, but have brought their relationship to a romantic level.

They met when he was living next to her mother with a longtime partner, Sara, and their children.

After keeping Michael’s identity a secret for some time, Chantelle took to Instagram to announce her engagement and wrote, “Ok, I know it’s lockdown and isolation, but he just asked me to marry him: I said YES.

“I will love him forever.”
