"We talk quite a lot and support each other and we’re going through the same thing so no," she said.

"We’ve been friends since I worked on the Hot 30 Countdown and we’ve maintained that friendship."

While Dan’s out of the question, she did jokingly say there are a lot of other River Boys to pick from but said that she's just focusing on herself at the moment.

“I’m trying to be back on the dating scene but I hate it, I don’t like single life, just the modern dating that you have to do online, not a fan. I tried Tinder for one hour and I hated it, I think Tinder’s free prostitution, I can’t stand it.

"At the moment I just want to focus on me," she said,

"When you first break up you want to start flirting with guys but at the moment I’m just happy with being with me."



When it comes to Instagram, Greig jokes that she’s one of those people that takes 100 photos to get the perfect one.

“It’s kind of a sad world that the majority of people do take more than one photo to try and perfect something and it even frustrates me and I’m the one that does it," she said.

"So I try to be realistic."

“I lost 10kg and then I was kind of up and down three or four kilos depending on how many wines and burgers I eat on the weekend and champagne I drink at these delicious functions but I am aiming to lose another 10kg before October," she said.

"You’ve just got to put in the effort and if you have that day where you’ve had a bit of alcohol, work just as hard the next day so don’t just take all the good stuff out of your life just try and find a bit of balance."

"I just want to do it for me. I’ve just separated from my husband so my aim now is to be the best version of me inside and outside."
