Hegerty's enthusiasm for new acting opportunities highlights her desire to expand her career beyond quiz shows. However, she has also made it clear that she is not interested in participating in reality TV programs, stating that she considers her experience in a major reality show, likely referring to her appearance in 'I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!', to be unparalleled. She is not keen on pursuing similar formats again. Hegerty's reflection on her time in the jungle reveals her belief that it represents the pinnacle of her experiences, and she prefers to focus on roles that enhance her craft.
