Roxanne Pallett will be joining Celebrity Coach Trip next year after the Celebrity Big Brother scandal which forced her to ‘quit showbusiness’.

The former Emmerdale star has been at the centre of one of CBB’s biggest media storms, after she falsely accused Ryan Thomas of ‘deliberately’ punching her in the ribs and called for him to be removed from the house.

In turn, Roxanne stepped down from her radio show, is thought to be losing out on £100,000 worth of big money offers and has confirmed that she will be stepping away from the limelight.

However, after quitting Celebrity Big Brother and Celebrity Island With Bear Grylls, the 35-year-old will be joining lovable tour guide Brendan Sheerin.




An insider told OK! Online: ‘Roxanne Pallett will be in Celebrity Coach Trip. It was filmed earlier this summer.’

They added: ‘It is not on screen until next year.’

Last night Ryan was finally crowned the latest, and possibly final, Celebrity Big Brother champion, with host Emma Willis hailing him as the ‘most deserving winner ever’.

The former Corrie star was praised by viewers and his housemates as he chose to forgive Roxanne, despite being shown footage of the ‘incident’ and her breaking down in the Diary Room, begging bosses to kick him out of the Borehamwood compound.

He also told Emma that he’d been left a ‘scared little boy’ and fearing he’d ‘get a call from the police’ following the accusations.

The father-of-one needn’t have worried though, having had the support of the nation, and now with TV bosses queuing to sign him up he’s predicted to make millions.

An insider told The Sun: ‘It didn’t matter what happened in the final, Ryan was already the winner as TV bosses want him. There have been several offers.’

Celebrity Coach Trip will air on Channel 4 in 2019.
