Charlotte Crosby and Gary 'Gaz' Beadle are to appear in 'Ex on the Beach'.
The 'Geordie Shore' stars - who briefly rekindled their romance last year - are set to star in the upcoming second series of the MTV reality show, which sees eight sexy singles come face to face with their former flames.
Charlotte and Gaz's involvement in the show comes after their former co-star Vicky Pattison appeared on the first series last year, when she was forced to live in a house with her ex-fiance Ricci Guarnaccio and on-off love interest Daniel Conn.
And in similar fashion, Gary will not just be joined by Charlotte but by his former hook ups, ex-girlfriends and even one night stands.
Fans of the disorderly couple will have to wait and see, however, whether they will once again end up in each other's beds or whether they will fall for their new housemates in the exotic villa.
Joining Gaz and Charlotte will be top model Anita, Essex boy Connor, "the sweetest bitch" Kayleigh, Justin Bieber lookalike Luke, self-proclaimed comedienne Loren, former professional footballer Morgan, international DJ Melissa and Dreamboy Rogan.
Following the success of the first series, in which housemates were left guessing who's ex would be next, the premise of this series will be which ex is next, with the singles left to figure out what their motives are - be it to exact revenge, win them back or simply cause chaos and turn their ex's dream holiday upside down.
'Ex on the Beach' returns to MTV on January 27 at 10pm.

Joey Essex wants to learn to speak Spanish.
The former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star has confessed he plans to brush up on his language skills in 2015 in preparation for his upcoming visit to Marbella with his pals.
The reality TV star - who also has his own documentary series 'Educating Joey Essex', which follows his pursuit of knowledge across the globe - said: "I did loads of travelling last year. If I learnt Spanish then maybe it would be easier to chat to people. Especially when I go to Marbs in the summer with the boys."
The 24-year-old hunk also revealed he is a budding musician and thinks it would be "cool" to learn the guitar so he can start writing his own songs.
He explained: "I want to learn the guitar so I can write my own stuff. I'm always making up songs so I think it would be cool to play and sing or rap at the same time."
Meanwhile, Joey has kicked off the New Year with a makeover from Foxy Bingo in celebration of the UK website's new look.
The star tried out three northern-inspired looks in a nod to Foxy's roots - donning a kilt from Scotland, a moth eaten vest, scruffy jeans and a grubby beanie hat in tribute to the character Compo from the Yorkshire-based TV show 'Last of the Summer Wine' and finally, a get-up inspired by former Oasis rocker Liam Gallagher, who comes from Manchester.
Joey said of his new looks: "I like to keep myself looking reem, but I look a right doughnut dressed like this. I don't know if people 'oop north' pull in this clobber, but I'd have no chance down Sugar Hut dressed in this gear."
Foxy's new look will be revealed for the first time tonight [Monday, 5th January] during the 8.15pm ad break on Coronation Street - or go online at www.foxybingo.com

Chloe Madeley has replaced Ola Jordan on 'The Jump'.
The 27-year-old beauty has signed on for the upcoming second series of the reality show after the 'Strictly Come Dancing' professional was forced to pull out after suffering a serious leg injury during training, Channel 4 has confirmed.
Chloe - who is the daughter of TV presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan - will now go up against a number of celebrities including former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star Joey Essex, JLS singer J.B. Gill and ex-professional rugby player Mike Tindall in the winter sports contest, which kicks off in Austria next month.
The fitness fanatic has taken part in reality TV in the past when she came in third place on ITV's now defunct 'Dancing on Ice' in 2011, although series one contestant Laura Hamilton insists her experience on the ice skating show gave her no advantage on the ski slopes.
Meanwhile, Ola was scheduled to go under the knife today (06.01.14) in a bid to save her dancing career after injuring herself during preparation for the show.
Taking to her Twitter account on the weekend, she said: "Had a good Physio session today. They said I'm ready for my operation Tuesday. Fingers crossed everything goes well. Xxx (sic)"

Kym Marsh is planning a winter wedding.
The 'Coronation Street' actress - who plays pub landlady Michelle Connor in the ITV soap - recently got engaged to personal trainer Dan Hooper and has revealed they're planning on tying the knot later this year.
She said: "We haven't set a date yet but we'd like to get married next winter. I think it'll be romantic as it's a beautiful time of year and we both love Christmas. And, let's face it, you know it's going to be freezing so you don't have to worry about the weather! It gives us a good year to be together and plan it."
The 38-year-old star - who was previously married to former 'EastEnders' actors Jack Ryder and Jamie Lomas - claims she's not bothered by criticism of her getting married for a third time as she knows Dan is "The One".
Kym - who has 19-year-old son David and 17-year-old daughter Emilie from a previous relationship and three-year-old daughter Polly with Jamie - told OK! magazine: "This is the most certain I've ever been of anyone.
"I've been in previous long-term relationships and because I have been in relationships where things haven't been right, I know what I'm looking at - I've met someone where everything seems right and that's why I know Dan's The One."
And Dan - who has four-year-old daughter Lexi Grace from his relationship with 'Hollyoaks' actress Stephanie Waring - insists they're not interested in what people have to say because they're "truly happy".
He added: "People have their opinions but they're on the outside looking in and we're truly happy and that's all that counts."

Sue Perkins thinks some male comedians incite "hatred against women".
The 'Great British Bake Off' host worries her male counterparts are reacting to the growing success of women in comedy by telling offensive jokes.
She said: "It's not alright to make rape jokes.
"I think comedy has become very tribal and worryingly sectarian.
"There are some fantastic female comics who are doing really well and they have been labelled 'feminist comics' and therefore a small section of male comics have decided to react against that and do material that is provocative and incites almost hatred against women, where the world 'rape' is a punch line. And that is to their discredit and to their shame."
However, the 45-year-old presenter - who rose to prominence as a comedienne alongside her 'Bake Off' co-host Mel Giedroyc in 1993 - insists it's currently a great time to be a woman on the comedy circuit.
She explained to Radio Times magazine: "There's never been a better time to be a young female comic. There is a list as long as my arm and they are absolutely jaw-dropping and I'm delighted because it's what you'd want...younger, better versions of yourself!"

Rita Ora tries to "blank out" Twitter abuse.
The 'How We Do' hitmaker has joined the judging panel of BBC One singing competition 'The Voice' and admits she will be checking to see what people have to say about her on the social networking site once the show kicks off on Saturday (10.01.15).
Speaking at the launch of the fourth series at the Mondrian London hotel, she told BANG Showbiz: "I check on it anyway but honestly any time I go on Twitter there's always a good but always the bad as well and I try to just blank out what I don't want and I take in what I want to keep.
"But I'm ready for the ups and downs but for me there's only ups because it's [the show] out now so I can't do anything about it, I'm just happy I made this choice."
The 24-year-old star confessed she was worried about joining Sir Tom Jones, will.i.am and Ricky Wilson as a coach on the show because of the more "intense" scrutiny it would bring with it.
She explained: "It was like, you know what? I'm going to be an open book for the public and opinions are going to come out of everywhere. I mean I've already had them but this time it's going to be ten times more intense."
However, Rita insists she remained true to herself during filming so as to not come across as fake.
The blonde beauty added: "I said to myself, 'I can only be myself'. If I was to be someone else it would kind of come out that I was lying because you can't do that for eight hours straight.
"I try to make everyone feel comfortable. It's hard for me to hard how I feel."

Jeremy Kyle has Botox injections two to three times a year.
The 49-year-old TV presenter revealed he started receiving the treatment when he was hosting the American version of his eponymous show and insists he has no regrets.
Jeremy shared: "I first got it done when I was filming in America, doing something like 112 flights in two years, at a time when I could have slept for 12 hours and still looked dreadful.
"I gave it a lot of thought and I don't regret it at all. I see pictures of myself BB - before Botox - and I see the ones after and I am happy. I am on television 1,500 times a year and it is a very small way, and a safe way, of looking a little bit better than I used to.
"Is that vanity? Some will say that. Is is silly? Some will say it is. But I'm not going to lie about it, why would I?"
Jeremy added that lots of people in the TV industry have Botox and having survived a testicular cancer scare in 2012, the presenter says he's not the type to be easily embarrassed.
He told The Sun newspaper: "There are loads of my peers who I'm sure have had it done and are wondering why I am admitting to it but the whole of the UK knows I only have one ball."

Rita Ora wasn't sure she was ready for the "pressure" of being a coach on 'The Voice'.
The 'How We Do' hitmaker has joined the judging panel of the BBC One singing competition for it's upcoming fourth series but admits she sought the advice of veteran coach will.i.am before signing up.
Speaking at the series launch at the Mondrian London hotel she told BANG Showbiz: "When I first got asked to do it I had to speak to will about it because I wasn't sure if I wanted to take that pressure on and be responsible but then I found my balls and said to myself, 'You know what? Just go for it'."
The 24-year-old star - who will also go up against Sir Tom Jones and Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson on the show - claims one of the main reasons she accepted the offer was to help other artists achieve their dreams.
She explained: "If I can find it inside myself to help somebody then I want that. I want to do that because somebody did that for me. Being 24 and in this industry, it's nice to have an insight from somebody my age, especially with all the female singers that come on the show and even the male singers."
The blonde beauty added: "It's just good to have somebody from all aspects of the spectrum giving you advice."
