THINGS are definitely going to get saucy in the upcoming series of Seven’s mega-hit TV reality show My Kitchen Rules.
The biggest program on the tube is meant to be a family favourite, but there’s nothing G-rated about cooking show contestant Betty Banks.
And she’s confessed “there are few skeletons in my closet”.
The Saturday Telegraph has unearthed a range of scantily clad and suggestive images of the Sydney-based “social media influencer” — with many showing her half-naked.
But the 27-year-old yesterday said she wasn’t ashamed of the “raunchy” images and she was proud of her body. “I’m not worried about that,” Banks said.
“Mum was a model as well, so she’s fine and she’s seen it all.
“Maybe I am a bit more raunchy ... but it’s made me proud of and comfortable with my body. There’s nothing I’m worried about and I’m not ashamed of that.”
Her social media profiles suggest Banks likes a good time, with a series of photos of her enjoying the night-life — especially the Marquee nightclub at The Star casino.
“My past has made me who I am today,” Banks said.
“There are a few skeletons in my closet, there always are with people. But I’m not sorry.
“There were things that we did before, when we were young, that we can’t control.
“But I feel so lucky that I had those experiences, they’ve made me confident in who I am.”
Betty will appear in the show with 32-year-old small business manager David.
The Seven network says the pair are “just friends but hoping to go all the way in the competition”.

“We’re like brother and sister,” David says.
The duo met in a tattoo parlour.
Banks says her signature dish is a “Lao pawpaw salad” that has been in her family since she was born.
“I remember how proud my family was when I picked it up for the first time,” she says.
