Cherry Valentine left the show during the second episode. It was a particularly poignant experience for her, as she openly discussed her traveller background with fellow contestant Sister Sister. In an interview with Digital Spy, she revealed that "It was a really crazy moment to just sit down with Sister Sister and talk about my family, I got really emotional in the confessionals."
Aside from opening up about her background and the lack of acceptance she had growing up, she also explored the concept of accepting herself. "I used to hate saying 'I'm gay' because I would feel embarrassed about it. But now I'm gay as I come and I don't care who knows it! It's just one of those things you have to go through, you have to take time to accept yourself before you can expect other people to accept you," she told the magazine.
