Bodybuilder and model Jodie Marsh says she is asexual and doesnt want to have sex with anybody.

During a National Student Pride event at the University of Westminster on Saturday, the 38 year-old, known for a string of ill-fated relationships, claimed that she is asexual, reports mirror.co.uk.

She was speaking on the Being Me Campaign's Intersectionality Panel, where she opened up about her private life explaining that even though she fancies both men and women, right now she is completely disinterested in sex.

She said: "I don't know if next year I'll be with a man, a woman, or with a toy in my bedroom. I'm nearly 40, I don't know who I am. I can't claim to have gone through what the other people on this panel have gone through, I've not come out, I don't know who I am.

"Honest truth? I am asexual right now. I don't want sex with anybody. I'm not interested in sex with anybody."

Talking more about how unnecessary labels are, Marsh said: "I know I'm attracted to women just as much as men. I look at women, does that make me bisexual? I don't like labels. I don't need to say I'm gay or bisexual, it doesn't matter to me. If I fancy a woman, I want to look at pictures of her, I don't need to tell everyone. It's not like I'm ashamed of it."
