Meet Vicky Pattison

Vicky Pattison is best known for winning I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2015 and for being one of the original cast members of Geordie Shore. Born in Newcastle upon Tyne in November 1987, Vicky studied Drama, Media and Cultural Studies at Liverpool John Moores University before beginning her career in the public eye. She quickly became a household name with her fearless personality, sharp wit, and infectious energy, winning the hearts of viewers across the UK.

After leaving Geordie Shore, Vicky went on to host her own MTV series Judge Geordie, appear on Ex on the Beach, and star in multiple reality and celebrity shows including Celebrity MasterChef, Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, and Pilgrimage. Her victorious stint in the jungle launched her presenting career, with roles on I’m A Celebrity: Extra Camp, This Morning, Loose Women, and more. In recent years, she has moved into podcasting and radio, hosting over 400 episodes of The Secret To, launching Love Bombed on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds, co-hosting Get a Grip with Angela Scanlon, and presenting nationally on Heart Radio.


Vicky is also an accomplished author, with her autobiography Nothing but the Truth and self-help book The Secret to Happy both reaching Sunday Times Bestseller status. She has written three novels and continues to use her platform to speak openly on issues including alcohol, mental health, and the impact of deepfake technology, fronting documentaries for Channel 4 such as Vicky Pattison: My Dad, Alcohol and Me and Vicky Pattison: My Deepfake Sex Tape.

Away from her professional life, Vicky married former Only Way Is Essex star Ercan Ramadan in 2024, with celebrations in London and Italy, and is a proud dog owner to her Labradors Max and Milo. Known for her adventurous spirit, charitable treks, and Geordie pride, Vicky is now stepping into the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom, ready to bring her signature energy, determination, and sparkle to every dance.
