In addition to glamour modeling, Marsh has also taken part in many reality TV shows, including Trust Me - I'm A Holiday Rep, Channel 4's The Games, E4's Fool around...with Jodie Marsh on two occasions, as a house guest in the short lived Five series Back to Reality.

Marsh began presenting her own TV series, Get A Life for Living TV which commenced 1 Mar. 2007 (5 years ago). It was cancelled after two episodes, due to poor viewing figures.

Celebrity Big Brother

In Jan. 2006 (6 years ago), she appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in the UK. She clashed with a number of housemates, most notably Pete Burns, Michael Barrymore and George Galloway who grew tired of her describing her sexual experiences, and alleged victim mentality. She appeared, however, to establish a friendship with fellow housemate Chantelle Houghton. This friendship ended when the show finished. On Friday 13 January, Marsh was first to be voted out of the Big Brother house � with 8 out of 10 possible nominations (the highest ever margin) from her fellow housemates, but only 42% of the public vote.She cried during her post-eviction interview with Davina McCall describing the experience as "horrific" and her housemates as "vile jealous bullies".

Totally Jodie Marsh

In May 2007 (5 years ago), the website Marry Me Jodie Marsh was launched with the teaser "I'm getting married this September... Only problem is that I don't have a man!". Men were invited to submit an application for a series of open auditions for the chance to marry Marsh that September. MTV filmed the search and subsequent wedding.

The reality series featuring Marsh entitled Totally Jodie Marsh: Who'll Take Her Up the Aisle?, premiered in Jul. 2007 (5 years ago) documenting Marsh's search to find a husband. Marsh eventually chose Matt Peacock, an ex-boyfriend of fellow glamour model Jordan.

In the final episode of the show, MTV executives confronted Marsh and Matt Peacock with taped footage of Peacock's audition claiming he and Marsh had been dating for months and living together for three months, contrary to the show's claims. After the MTV executives left the room, Peacock accused Marsh of lying to MTV.

The couple married on 1 sep. 2007 (5 years ago) at Sugar Hut, an Essex nightclub. A second ceremony in her mother�s back garden was shown on MTV on 2 sep. 2007 (5 years ago). It was later revealed that Marsh had the wedding paid for by sponsors who believed that the wedding was genuine.

The couple split up in dec. 2007 (5 years ago). Marsh later admitted to Love It magazine in their 8 Jan. 2008 (4 years ago) issue that ".. the marriage was for TV. It was never for real." and "I'm not hiding the fact I did the TV show for money. Of course I did".

Writing

Marsh wrote a weekly column for celebrity gossip magazine Sneak until its closure in Aug. 2006 (6 years ago) and was previously Zoo Weekly magazine's "sexpert", advising men on sex-related issues. Her choice as an agony aunt angered some established professionals.

In 2005 (7 years ago), Marsh published her autobiography Keeping It Real..

Personal life

It has been widely reported in British tabloids that Marsh has had a string of relationships with other celebrities including Fran Cosgrave, Calum Best, Marcus Palmer, ex-Blazin' Squad singer and Celebrity Big Brother 2005 (7 years ago) runner-up Kenzie.

In dec. 2006 (6 years ago), Marsh announced her engagement to Brentwood DJ David Doyle, after dating for eleven days. Eschewing the traditional engagement ring, Marsh instead tattooed Doyle's full name on her hand and the couple appeared together in OK! magazine announcing their plan to marry in a fetish ceremony in a dungeon. The relationship ended between late dec. and mid-January 2007 (5 years ago) with Doyle blaming Marsh's constant drinking and poor personal hygiene.

Since Oct. 2008 (4 years ago) Marsh has been dating a woman, known as Nina, a hairdresser. In the Nov. issue of the UK edition of Star magazine, Marsh gave a full interview about their relationship and recreated the iconic Vanity Fair front cover depicting Cindy Crawford (20 walls) shaving K.D. Lang. When asked how she would label her sexuality, Marsh replied if she had to choose 'I would be bi'.

She is a vegetarian and she participated at the Peta's campaign "All Animals have the same parts".

Other controversy

In 2004 (8 years ago), Marsh sold a story to the News of the World claiming that she had a sexual liaison with Chelsea F.C. midfielder Frank Lampard. Lampard denied the claims and filed a complaint with Press Complaints Commission.

On 24 Mar. 2006 (6 years ago), Liberal Democrats education spokesman Phil Willis questioned Schools Minister Jacqui Smith in Parliament as to whether Marsh should be permitted access to schools in promoting her BeatBullying work, describing her blog as "the language of an appalling bully". Smith responded that, "Jodie Marsh does not represent the Department for Education and Skills in any way. "Decisions about giving people access to pupils in schools are a matter for individual head teachers and governing bodies." Marsh described Willis as "just a sad, past-it old wannabe trying to get famous off my back". Willis later told the Daily Mail: "I just think we are descending really to the lowest common denominator when we are actually putting people on a pedestal like Jodie Marsh to send into our schools. I think we could find better role models."

On 11 Aug. 2006 (6 years ago), Marsh was booed by spectators at the annual Jersey Battle of Flowers Parade where she was a celebrity guest. The combined fee for Marsh and the parade's other celebrity guest, Andy Abraham, was estimated as �20,000. It has been suggested that this expense and the quality of the celebrity it bought contributed to the negative reception.

On 16 May 2007 (5 years ago), Marsh stood atop a giant wedding cake in Leicester Square in London, dressed in a white tutu, with two white belts covering her nipples and carrying a bridal bouquet to promote her upcoming reality series Totally Jodie Marsh. During the appearance, she was interviewed by journalist Jody Thompson who asked her, in addition to other questions, why she accused her one-time Big Brother housemate Chantelle Houghton of marrying for publicity only to do the very same thing. Marsh finished the interview but was filmed walking off stating, "I actually wanted to punch her [Thompson] in the face. Lesbian, blatantly! That short hair! And butch, looks like a man... She was a bitch from hell, she was a complete cow." The comments, which were broadcast on MTV, angered several gay rights activists.
