"I'd love to be a Gladiator and I think I'd be fantastic at it, with the message I bring, the personality I've got and the athletic ability I have."

"Just before the show [was filmed] I wasn't taking care of myself as much, as I had lost my mum and was taking guardianship of Max and having that extra responsibility."

"I don't know if it was the pressure that got to me, as it's different when you have a Gladiator behind you, or maybe I just had too high expectations."

"I'd have Gladiators champion tattooed on my forehead if I could so I bit their hand off to do it."
