Spencer Matthews for Celebrity Big Brother?


Spencer Matthews is being lined up for ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ after being kicked out of the ‘I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here!’ jungle.

The ‘Made in Chelsea’ star was axed from the ITV reality show after just three days when producers discovered he’d been taking steroids, but it’s now been claimed Channel 5 bosses are keen to sign him up for next series of ‘CBB’.

A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Spencer is still a man in demand."

The 27-year-old hunk has reportedly been working hard to fight his addiction since returning home from Australia and is keen to do the show after missing out on his £50,000 fee plus an estimated £250,000 he could have made from personal appearances and sponsorship deals.

Spencer mysteriously left the jungle last month before even making it to the main camp and later announced that he’d "screwed up".

He said: "Shortly after I arrived in Australia I told the team I was taking a steroid-based medication that had begun some weeks ago.

"My admission to the production team that I was still taking these pills led to the conclusion that it would be unsafe for me to stay in the jungle – a decision which I found extremely hard to stomach.’

"Taking these pills was a serious error of judgment, which I hugely regret. I have disappointed my family, friends and fans and would like to apologise."

Meanwhile, other stars rumoured to be entering the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ house next month include ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ star James ‘Lockie’ Lock, Vanilla Ice, former ‘Hollyoaks’ actress Stephanie Davis and controversial comedian Dapper Laughs.
