Fans also shared their excitement over the news, with one commenting: “Omg my drives to work just got a whole lot better.” And a second penned: “Well done David, look forward to listening.”
David’s aspirations don’t stop at podcasting; according to a source speaking to OK! magazine, his sights are set on becoming a TV presenter. Before his stint on Celebrity Big Brother, David was reportedly already in discussions for his own show and various presenting opportunities, indicating a determined pursuit of his ultimate goal in the entertainment industry.
“He previously presented the spin-off show for the ITV2 reality show The Cabins and it went down so well. While he’ll definitely do more reality shows, as that’s where he’s made his name, his ultimate goal is presenting.”
Celebrity PR executive Ed Hopkins has expressed confidence in David’s potential for significant success in the near future. In an interview with The Sun, Hopkins predicted that David could secure lucrative six-figure deals in the coming months, suggesting a promising trajectory for the reality TV star’s career.
“I’m sure projects are already signed and agreed, and if he works hard, there’s no reason why he couldn’t earn a million in the next two years. ITV will look after him.”
Ed also detailed how the win could mean he steers away from reality TV and towards opportunities on radio shows or even presenting cameos
