Winner of the third season of the show in 2003, Reggie has grappled with becoming legally blind and caring for her son Lucas, nine, who suffers from cystic fibrosis.
Reggie also split from her husband Dale Sorenson in 2012 and has struggled with depression.
“When my eyesight was failing ... I went through a really bad depression for about two years,” she said.
“I just couldn’t handle the world. But I got over all that, and now you just have to make the most of each day. You have to keep going.”
Reggie has expressed interest in returning Big Brother and is also keen to appear on Gogglebox. “Oh I’d love to be a Gogglebox reviewer,” she said.

"I knew at the time I wasn't having any more children,' Sara-Marie told Mamamia, adding that she'd had endometriosis and cysts throughout her life but the hysterectomy "went terribly wrong."
Fortunately, Sara-Marie confirmed she's since recovered and "blessed to be back to normal." She's currently living in Perth and studying to be a teacher's aid for children with special needs.
"I haven't been in hibernation, I just didn't care to be known," she added." "I'm still the same person before, but a grown-up version. I did what I did and then I was happy to go."
