Ulrika Johnson is hoping her dry spell will soon be over as she has joined a dating app following the collapse of her third marriage which she claims was sexless.
The 52-year-old TV babe has joined over-50’s dating app Lumen and is hoping to be lucky in love once again following her third divorce.
Swedish beauty Ulrika - who shot to fame in the UK in the 1980s as a host of Gladiators - says her last marriage, to American advertising executive Brian Monet, was devoid of sex with the pair only doing the deed once in the eight years they spent together.
But now that she is free and single once again, Ulrika says she is ready for plenty of intimacy with Mr Right.
Opening up about a recent date that she arranged via social media, Ulrika revealed the gentle burning fire of desire has been reignited within her after she hit it off with her blind date.
“He was also tactile — not in a creepy way — and that was a game-changer. To have a flirty moment, to feel butterflies and that you’re not just someone’s mum, a dog owner or Waitrose regular, felt like winning the Lottery,” she told The Sun.
“To learn I was still capable of excitement, flirtation, being my own woman, made me feel 16 again,” she added.
Ulrika was first married in 1990 when she wed cameraman John Turnbull.
She then married reality star Lance Gerrard-Wright in 2003 after they met on dating show Mr Right and after he was rejected by his love match, only to fall into Ulrika’s arms.
And she wed husband number three, Brian, in 2008, with whom she has a son named Malcolm, 11, and Ulrika says they had sex only once during their eight-year-long marriage.
Now the mum-of-four says she that while she’s ready for dating, she is not looking for a fourth husband.
“I’m not looking for marriage — I’ve had three of those, glorious as they were,” she continued to The Sun.
“I don’t feel the necessity for anyone extra in my life. I have kids and three dogs — and two ovens which make me very happy when I’m cooking. I’m fine, thank you very much,” she added.
On her dating profile, Ulrika makes it clear what she is looking for - and what she is not.
“Would love a lot of laughs; some fun; some intimacy and definitely some good food,” she writes alongside a slew of stunning photos.
“Honesty valued. No arrogant men need apply,” she adds.
Ulrika has four children from for different relationships - with eldest son, Cameron, 25, form her marriage to John, eldest daughter Bo, 19, from a relationship with German hotel manager Marcus Kempen, second daughter Martha, 15, from her marriage to Lance, and 11-year-old Malcom from her marriage to Brian.
