"I had to go through a metal detector, I had to change my top but I expected that anyway. This person came up behind me and it was Danny. It scared the life out of me.
"Obviously I hugged him, we were hugging for ages. I thought I would cry but to be honest with you I was so happy I was just so excited.
"We had four and a half hours for our visit. We had loads of snacks out of the vending machines, which was really nice.

Danny said: "Best day of my damn life. You are stunning, fun and funny! Beautiful!

"I'm so excited, I can't wait to open it. I feel like such a weirdo sitting on TikTok sniffing a T-shirt.
"By the way the reason I have been going on about the smell is because I was telling him to wear it loads so that it smelt of him.
"You're not technically allowed but we did it anyway. Best day ever."
