Speaking in a new interview with The Sun Online, the Governess said: "I don't own that costume, it belongs to the wardrobe department.

"But everyone seems to think 'Okay, well we'll have her on Celebrity Juice or whatever but she has to wear the costume' but I'm like 'you have to ask permission for me to wear the costume, and anyway, I hate it. I do.

The 64-year-old explained: "I mean the arm holes are too tight, and it's just, you know....hideous.

"Then I saw what they had chosen and I thought 'Oh great' then I saw they had put a belt on it and I was like 'fine', but it's not about vanity here."
