Speaking to The Sun on Saturday recently, the former TOWIE star said she still wants her happily ever after and is ‘such a sucker for love’.
While she is not wallowing in heartache and is enjoying the single life, the star reflected on their split, revealing how the pandemic ‘accelerated’ their breakup.
I am such a sucker for love – I love love so much, and of course I want to find my happy ever after,’ an optimistic Ferne said about her future dating life.

The blonde beauty only had positive things to say about Jack, 27, describing the breakup as ‘mature’.
‘But it’s been such a mature, grown-up breakup – and no one did anything wrong. I’ve learned so much from this relationship and from Jack, and we had some beautiful times,’ she said.
Ferne and Jack moved in together amid the winter lockdown shortly after they began dating, and admitted that taking the next step in their relationship was its downfall.

‘But in the end, it also accelerated our breakup, because coming out of lockdown and the world opening back up meant suddenly our lives were very different and we were like passing ships,’ she explained.
News broke of their split in June, with a source saying the couple were ‘on different paths’ and the end of lockdown made it ‘clear’ their lifestyles didn’t match up.
A source close to the couple confirmed the breakup to MailOnline, and said it was clear when lockdown started to lift their work and lifestyles were just too different.
