Celebrity Big Brother 2025 full lineup ‘leaks’ days before series launch
We're in for a wild ride...
The full list of stars entering the Celebrity Big Brother house next week has seemingly been revealed…
On Monday, April 7, AJ Odudu and Will Best return to host the showbiz edition of ITV’s beloved social experiment, one year after David Potts emerged victorious as the 2024 winner.
Rumours have been swirling for a while around who exactly will be entering the famous compound, but it now looks like the entire lineup has leaked.
According to The Sun, talk show hosting legend Trisha Goddard, American actor Mickey Rourke, and internet sensation JoJo Siwa are taking part.
Joining them will be soap legends from EastEnders and Corrie in the form of Bianca Jackson actress Patsy Palmer and Jack P. Shepherd, perhaps better known to the nation as David Platt.
Reality personality-wise, former Love Islander Chris Hughes will walk through the doors, along with Towie’s Ella Rae Wise.

Completing the lot is the one and only (listen, it had to be done) chart-topping singer, Chesney Hawkes.
It’s also heavily rumoured that drag superstar Danny Beard will enter as a latecomer to spice things up, having appeared on spin-off show Late & Live as a panel member on several occasions.
When previously contacted for comment around the casting rumours, ITV told Metro: ‘Any names suggested for Celebrity Big Brother are purely speculation.’

The lineup is looking strong for the second instalment of ITV’s reboot, which has already aired two civilian series won by Jordan Sangha and Ali Bromely, respectively.
Last year, Louis Walsh, Fern Britton, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, Marisha Wallace, and even Sharon Osbourne were among the housemates for a three-week-long series.
Ibiza Weekender alum David, 31, proved most popular with the public, though, winning him the most votes in the final ahead of Nikita Kuzmin and Colson Smith.
But who are you putting your money on this time?
Celebrity Big Brother returns to ITV and ITVX on Monday, April 7.
