John James starred on Big Brother in UK in 2010 and had a relationship with winner Josie Gibson

โ€œEx-girlfriends would say I was manipulative, they felt insecure and that they couldnโ€™t trust me โ€“ even if I hadnโ€™t done anything,โ€ JJ, 32, admits. โ€œIโ€™ve never cheated.โ€

Since his very public heartbreak in 2011, heโ€™s sadly failed to find love again.

โ€œ[My friends] call me Johnny three-months,โ€ the hunk told NW before crashing the villa.

โ€œI fall for girls quite deep, quite quick. But I also get out just as quickly. My last girlfriend was 19, so there was definitely excitement there, but you get over watching Toy Story and Buzz Lightyear and thatโ€ฆ Itโ€™s hard to maintain a progression with someone thatโ€™s so young.โ€

The couple even landed their own spin off seriesโ€ฆ until Josie accused JJ of cheating and it all fell apart

Hmmmโ€ฆ JJ may regret saying that when he discovers heโ€™s the only cast member older than 30!

Discussing the type of girl heโ€™s hoping to couple up with on the show, John concludes, โ€œLike a best friend you want to bang! [But] Iโ€™m pretty openโ€ฆ Iโ€™ve been with bigger girls, skinny girls, girls that look like theyโ€™re on heroin, girls that look like theyโ€™ve been to Hungry Jacks nine times a year โ€“ it doesnโ€™t really matter.โ€
