Radio host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has revealed her dating life would be easier if she were attracted to women.

The broadcaster delved into her thoughts on love in a candid conversation on Jessica Rowe’s podcast, which was then played on the KIIS breakfast show on Thursday morning.

Henderson split from her husband of 18 years Lee Henderson in 2018. The pair share 10-year-old daughter Kitty.

But the 46-year-old said on the podcast she think she would find dating easier if she were attracted to women.

“You know, it would be so much easier if I was a lesbian,” Jackie said on the podcast.

“I honestly wish I was … I‘d just hook up with one of my best mates.”

She added: “I love hanging out with them more than anyone and they’re all female.”

Grilled on KIIS FM by co-host Kyle Sandilands over her admission, Jackie then revealed she’d kissed women before.

“Oh we’ve all done that,” she said, before adding “nothing, nothing,” when Sandilands asked her if she’d taken things any further with a female.

It comes as Jackie also revealed on Rowe’s podcast that she has a “yearning” to find a partner to share her life with once Kitty is a teenager.

“I’d just love to sit at the dinner table with someone and have dinner, that’s what I yearn for and that’s the thing that I miss most about my old life … having that family time at the dinner table,” The Masked Singer judge revealed, breaking down in tears.

“So I don’t have that now and I think I will get that back, but as I said I want to wait, you know, a little bit longer. And then maybe down the track I will fall in love, that would be nice.”
