Shaughna Phillips is "scared" to move into her new house.
Shaughna Phillips on buying her first house
The 28-year-old TV star - who shot to fame on ITV2 reality dating show 'Love Island' back in 2020 - has managed to buy her first property but admitted that the whole venture feels "very grown up."
She said: "Oh, my God. [Buying a house is] very, very strange. Very strange. I said to my mum the other day because she's like, 'You don't seem to be excited'. And it's not that I'm not excited at all. It's very, very scary. Very, very grown up!"
However, the reality star - who used to work a a democratic services officer in London before finding fame on television and working with brands on Instagram - added that she used to work "a million times harder" but would never have been able to afford a house back then and sometimes feels "undeserving" of the chance now.
She told OK! Magazine: "But I also I sometimes feel a little bit... without sounding like patronising... I feel like I've not worked for it because I used to work a million times harder and what I used to do was so much harder than what I do now. I would never have been in a position that I'm in now. So I'm grateful. And it's amazing. But yeah, sometimes I feel a bit undeserving, I never thought that would be a thing."
Shaughna recently revealed that she has a new man in her life, but is determined to keep him out of the spotlight and while the move-in date is set for the beginning of June, she "hasn't decided" whether her new love will be moving in with her.
She added: "[Moving in] looking at the minute like the early first week of June, which is so super, very scary. Sometimes I drive past it, and I'm like 'I own those bricks'. I might let him come in every now and then, I haven't decided yet!"
