Speaking about the new venture, Cotton said: "I came up with the idea for this show because of my love of autobiographies."

"The whole lifestyle behind the public image is fascinating. I love piecing together the jigsaw puzzle of what lies beneath the surface."

"The series will be a real chance to peel back the layers of certain celebrities' lives."

ITV's Zai Bennet added: "Fearne and ITV2 are good friends so we're delighted she will be able to find out what really makes some of the most talked about women in the world tick."
