Celebs Go Dating star shares his bizarre pre-date ritual
Celebs Go Dating spoilers follow.
Celebs Go Dating has aired a bizarre moment when Love Island's Chris Taylor revealed what he favours as a pre-date snack.
Chris was getting ready for his date with Ieva with the best of intentions, though he admitted he struggled to remember how to spell her name.
As he put the final touches on his outfit to impress his date, the Love Islander munched on some celery.

Speaking to the camera, Chris explained he'd read that celery releases pheromones "that women find attractive".
"Health is wealth," he said unconvincingly, and for a good reason. Despite several sources claiming that celery can serve as an aphrodisiac, the research on the topic seems very limited (via Healthline).
Luckily, celery wasn't the only thing Chris had on the day. He and Ieva enjoyed a drink and a messy lobster meal as they discussed past relationships.

After extensively complimenting her skin and saying she looked like Sandra Bullock, Chris had to come clean about his fashion choices. He showed Ieva, who works as a buyer for a clothing brand, his white-socks-and-sandals combo, which was part of his "daddy" look.
At the end of their meal, Ieva was open to a second date, while Chris seemed undecided and said he needed more time to make up his mind.
As for the other celebrities entrusting their love lives to experts Anna Williamson, Paul C Brunson and Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn, most seemed willing to go on a second date with their matches.
Made in Chelsea's Tristan Phipps was up for a second meeting with Georgia, while Married at First Sight's Ella Morgan changed her mind about Reece and said she'd like to see him again.
