Big Brother star Helen Adams has left the world of TV behind to work as a hairdresser, 20 years after her iconic appearance on the Channel 4 show.

The former reality TV star, 42, was seen heading to her job at a salon in Portishead in Bristol while laden with bags on Friday.

Helen finished second on Big Brother's second series back in 2001 behind champion Brian Dowling, after winning an army of fans for her loveable nature and famous phrase: 'I like blinking I do.'

Helen was dressed in a casual all-black ensemble consisting of an oversized t-shirt and leggings as she headed to her job at the salon.

The Wales-born beauty carried her essentials in a leopard print shopping bag as she arrived for her day at work.

Helen was just 22 when she took part in Big Brother's second series, and quickly became one of the favourites to win with her loveable and ditsy nature.

Gallery: Loose Women stars' amazing wedding dresses: Ruth Langsford, Nadia Sawalha and more (Hello!)

Ruth Langsford, Eamonn Holmes that are standing in the grass: While the Loose Women ladies wait in anticipation to see what Stacey Solomon wears when she marries Joe Swash, take a look back at their own incredible wedding dresses. While some of the ITV stars opted for low-key weddings, with Carol McGiffin announcing in February 2019 that she had eloped to Thailand a year before, others had elaborate, star-studded ceremonies. But there's one thing they all have in common - stunning wedding dresses! From Jane Moore's elegant dress to Christine Lampard's gorgeous lace gown, we can't get enough of their beautiful wedding photos. Keep scrolling for all the most stunning snaps of the Loose Women stars on their wedding days. READ: Stacey Solomon's fiancé Joe Swash suffers major wedding mishap - fans react Ruth Langsford's wedding to Eamonn Holmes: Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes married at Hampshire hotel The Elvetham on 26 June 2010, in a ceremony covered exclusively by HELLO! magazine. For her big day, Ruth looked divine in a sumptuous creation, by Italian designer Angelina Colarusso. The pearl-coloured silk taffeta confection was sensuously sculpted and delicately adorned with bursts of tiny Swarovski crystals. And Eamonn couldn't help but get emotional when he first saw his bride. "I had to bite my lip to stop myself from crying," he told HELLO!. "I couldn't look Ruth in the eye, because I knew I wouldn't be able to control the tears." The bride was equally emotional. "As I walked in, I saw all these faces turned towards me, smiling, and then I looked over at Eamonn and I could see in his eyes that he was close to tears," she shared.

Reaching the final, Helen finished in second place behind winner Brian, and was seen embracing and reuniting with Paul outside the house.

The pair went onto date for five years and even moved in together, but opted to keep their romance out of the spotlight.

Helen went onto make a slew of TV appearances on shows such as Loose Women, GMTV and Ready, Steady Cook before she and Paul split in 2006.

The couple blamed the pressures of fame on their breakup, with Paul telling Heat Magazine at the time: 'For the last five years, on a daily basis people have been asking me, ''how's Helen? When are you getting married?'' and I've never met these people before in my life. It starts to drain you.

'It's not that I don't like talking about Helen, I just wanted to get away from it and be a private person again.'

Helen added: 'I felt like the Wicked Witch because I was first to say something. But then Paul said to me, ''would you want to marry me?'' and I said, ''I don't think I would'' and he said, ''well, I don't want to marry you either''. And we laughed.'

It's thought that along with moving to Bristol to work in hairdressing, Helen has since married and now has a daughter.
