The busty brunette hinted that she could soon return to reality TV, sharing a screenshot of the message alongside the caption: 'Sign me up!'

The visibility of bisexual women on romantic reality TV shows has increased in the past few years, although all of the ladies have been searching for a heterosexual relationship.
The Bachelor stars Alex Nation, Megan Marx and Tiffany Scanlon have all publicly revealed their bisexuality - but only after appearing on the program.
Megan and Tiffany subsequently enjoyed a short-lived relationship after starring on Richie Strahan's season of The Bachelor.

Megan later appeared on spin-off Bachelor In Paradise, with Warner Bros. and Channel Ten accused of 'queerbaiting' after making it look like the blonde was kissing another woman.
In actuality, Megan was smooching long-haired lothario Thomas Perras. She is now in a relationship with Jake Ellis.
Warner Bros. again came under fire for 'queerbaiting' during the 2018 season of The Bachelor after teasing Brooke Blurton's bisexuality as a 'big' secret.
Meanwhile, Channel Nine have similarly come under fire for turning a Married At First Sight contestant's bisexual past into a bombshell revelation.
Earlier this week, MAFS star Lauren Huntriss told 'husband' Matthew Bennett that she 'used to be a lesbian'.
