Celebrity Big Brother signs up controversial ITV2 reality star

Celebrity Big Brother have reportedly signed a controversial reality star ahead of the new series on Monday. 

ITV bosses have reportedly secured a sensational line-up of stars for the exciting reboot of the show, which was last broadcast on Channel 5 in August 2018.

And The Sun has revealed Ibiza Weekender star David Potts will be joining the line up. 

The reality TV veteran, who recently confirmed he had lost a whopping three stone, appeared on the Ibiza show from 2016 until 2020 and has also starred on Celebs Go Dating and Celebrity Ghost Trip. 

A source told the publication: ‘David’s great TV and doesn’t hold back – he won’t bite his tongue when it comes to giving his opinion in the house.’

Meanwhile a Celebrity Big Brother spokesperson told MailOnline: ‘Any names are at this point pure speculation and viewers will have to tune to see who will be entering the Celebrity Big Brother house.’

A fan of the show himself, David last appeared on screens as a guest on Big Brother’s sister show Late & Live as he gave his views on antics in the rebooted civilian version of the show.

Sharing snaps at the time, David said: ‘Had such a stunning time on @bbuk late & live last night spilling all the t with these absolute huns! Thanks for having me @itvxofficial.’

David recently revealed his latest weight loss achievement as he told fans he had officially shed three stone. 

He wrote: ‘Another stone bites the dust officially 3 stone down ahhhhh! Just another 7 to go SLAY!

‘For a few weeks I’ve been 2lbs off and it’s not been shifting, but it’s GONE! The journey continues huns.

‘For everyone wanting to know how I’ve done it. I’m no dietitian or PT, but I try and go to the gym 6 days a week and eat 1700 calories! Then one day I do zero exercise and eat whatever the F I want! It seems to be working for me.’

Last May David appeared on the E4 reality show The Big Celebrity Detox alongside Kerry Katona, Love Island’s Toby Aromolaran and Homes Under The Hammer’s Martin Roberts.

The extreme show saw the celebs take part in a series of gruelling tasks, including even drinking their own urine and forcing themselves to vomit. 

The programme wasn’t renewed for a second series after receiving a backlash from grossed out viewers.

Celebrities who are said to be in talks to take part include former Love Island winner Ekin-Su Culculoglu and ex X Factor judge Louis Walsh.

Sharon Osbourne has also been rumoured for the lineup as has former This Morning presenter Fern Britton, who has no intention on ‘holding back’ from shedding light on her past feud with Phillip Schofield.

Love Island’s Chloe Burrows is also ‘in talks to appear on the show, while Strictly professional Nikita Kuzmin has sparked fears he could quit the BBC show after rumoured signings for Celebrity Big Brother.

Celebrity Big Brother starts on March 4 on ITV1, STV, ITVX and STV Player.
