Geordie Shore's Sophie Kasaei says she couldn't date a celeb as she prefers a workman

Geordie Shore star Sophie Kasaei revealed she would rather not date a celebrity as she wants to hear about the banter on "the building site".

The 31-year-old wants to avoid finding a relationship with someone who works in the same industry she's in as she would want to hear more about her partner's workday.

Speaking to TOWIE’s Bobby Norris on Access All Areas about dating someone in the same industry, she explained: “I don't think I could do it, Bobby. I really don’t.

"Like, I get that they understand us a little bit more, but I want to go home and talk about their job and their life."

She went on to say she wants to date a labourer as she would want to know "what the building site was like" and "what the lads' banter" was like that day.

"I don't want to be like, ‘So how much did you get paid for that Instagram post?’ Or, ‘What's your call time today? What time do you wrap?’" Sophie added.

"Like I don’t want to know about call time or anything. I want to know what the banter has been on the building site."

The reality star dated Joel Corry for six years between 2011 and 2017 and they even featured together on the first three seasons of MTV’s scandalous show Geordie Shore.

She also began dating Jay Bigz in 2018 and went public with their relationship at the National Reality TV Awards in September that year.

They parted ways 10 months later and she revealed she thought she was going to marry him before things came to an end.

Last year, she discussed the Geordie Shore cameras filming her recovery from the break-up.

"Obviously with my journey in the OGs, I'd just come out of what I thought was going to be a forever relationship and I was turning 30 and started panicking because everyone else around me is having babies and settling down," she explained.

"I genuinely thought I would be the first one to do that and I think everyone else did."

Sophie told Mirror: "But life just throws different things at you, and don't get me wrong I wish I was in their position, of course I do, but things have changed and I'm in this position for a reason.

"For me, I was really vulnerable and my life was so different, so I'm a little bit anxious for people to see that side of me."
