There have been many rumours over the past few months about who is moving in to the Celebrity Big Brother house shortly. ITV has not given any official details, however about who is currently packing their bags.
Eamonn Holmes could also be signed up for the show, as could former Married At First Sight star Ella Morgan. Other stars rumoured to be joining the show include ex-Corrie star Helen Worth, former MP Nadine Dorries and departing EastEnders icon Natalie Cassidy.
