Celebrity Big Brother 2017: Bosses plotting to feature famous couples?
RUMOURS are already circulating about the next series of Celebrity Big Brother, as reports suggest that the Channel 5 show could feature celebrity couples.
The Sun reported earlier this week that ex-housemates Charlotte Crosby and Stephen Bear, who are now a couple, could enter the house together after reportedly signing a contract together.
A source told the publication that bosses are trying to book more famous pairs for the show.
They revealed: “It’s seriously early for anything to be set in stone but bosses are working hard on the idea and talking to couples about big money deals to firmly secure them for the series in the summer.”
This isn’t the first time couples will have entered the Borehamwood house, with Speidi - Heidi and Spencer Pratt - appearing in 2013 and the latest series which concluded in January.

Jedward have also appeared twice on the show as one housemate.
Other names that are reportedly being approached by the show include The Cheeky Girls and the so-called “Fat Scrounger” Stephen Beer and his wife Michelle.
On top of this, The Sun Online reports that bosses are hoping to sign the “Peru Two” for the summer series.
Michaella McCollum Connolly and Melissa Reid were freed from their Peruvian prison after being convicted as drug mules last year.
Furthermore, the show could be set for an explosive twist as bosses could throw non-famous couples into the mix.
As January’s series concluded, host Emma Willis told viewers that bosses were looking for non-celebrity pairs to enter the house.
However, The Sun Online has now reported that these pairs could be thrown in the famous house with celebrity couples as well.
