The official line-up for Celebrity Big Brother has been leaked

Including a former X Factor star

Cathy Donohue

Celebrity Big Brother returns next week, Tuesday 1st August to be exact, and it looks like the official line-up has been confirmed.

There have been multiple rumours in previous weeks including names such as actress and singer Sarah Harding, Jordan Davies of Ex on the Beach and comedian Helen Lederer whom you’ll recognise from Absolutely Fabulous, among other shows.

We recently learned that 80s pop star Sinitta had quit the show before it even started and now it seems the full list of celebrities has been decided upon.

Last Friday, Emma Willis confirmed that the official line-up had been decided and at this late stage, it would be surprising if things changed so it looks like the below list of names are who we’ll see arrive at the CBB house in just over a week.

London for the day ☀️??

According to The Daily Star Sunday, Pete Wicks has signed up for the show and considering the explosive scenes that aired when his on/off girlfriend Megan McKenna took part in the show in January 2016, people are hoping his time in the house will be just as dramatic

Other names reportedly joining the latest series include:

  • Amelia Lily of X Factor name
  • Brandi Glanville from Real Housewives of Beverley Hills
  • Nathan Henry whom fans of Geordie Shore know well
  • Jemma Lucy who appeared on Ex on the Beach
  • Sandi Bolge who recently quit Gogglebox
  • Rodrigo Alves who has been described as a ‘human Ken doll’

Celebrity Big Brother

It’s thought that producers are hoping to entice more famous faces before the show kicks off and if reports are to be believed, the house will be split this year with half living in luxury and the other in squalor.

A CBB spokesperson said:

“Our celebrities will take a break from their hectic schedules for a stay in the country’s top celeb retreat… the Celebrity Big Brother house.

“It’s sure to be holiday heaven for some and a holiday from hell for others”.
