Glamour model and reality star Jess, 28, will be a sexy addition to the line-up this series.

The Ex On The Beach pin-up isn't shy when it comes to stripping off, and her firey personality means she could be ruffling some feathers in the house.

The Sun Online revealed last week that the saucy model will be going into the house - and a source said: "Jess is best known as a glamour girl, but she has strong views and thinks women should celebrate their bodies."

Best known for starring in Made In Chelsea, Channel 5 bosses are hoping Ashley, 30, will bring drama and spill secrets on her famous friends.

She is also said to have had a fling with Britain’s Got Talent judge David Walliams, which could make for some interesting chat in the house.

A source told The Sun: "Ashley is a fiery character and a real party girl... She is also single so there is a chance she could find love in the house when the boys enter the show.”

While working as a TV reporter at ITV Border, India, then known as Jonathan, presented the news in the North East and Cumbria.

Writer and broadcaster Rachel, 52, is the latest member of Boris Johnson's family to sign up for a reality TV show.

The Foreign Secretary's sister follows in the footsteps of his dad Stanley, who recently starred in I'm A Celebrity.

Bo-Jo may be left squirming all over again as Rachel is put through her paces in the house.

A source told The Sun: "Bosses want this year’s show to be quite different. There are lots of intelligent, cultured people going in, all with strong opinions.

“People have been chosen because they might clash — but hopefully there’ll be heated debate and discussion rather than just screaming and storming out. Rachel is a great signing and fits the bill.”

She's never been known as a wall flower, so we're pretty sure Ann is going to bring some fireworks to house.

After retiring from politics in 2010, the former Conservative MP has thrown herself into TV work.

As well as appearing on Strictly Come Dancing in 2010, she has also appeared in shows such as Songs of Praise, Celebrity Antiques Road Trip and Sugar Free Farm.
