The 33-year-old singer's former Blue band mate Antony Costa has teased that his handsome friend could be about to head back into the infamous house for the forthcoming special edition of the popular reality TV show 'Gold Stars vs All Stars'.

Antony teased to Heat magazine: "Never say never. He'd be mad not to. I think he'd be brilliant. He was brilliant in it.

"A lot of people still come up to me to this day and go... 'Ah your mate Lee was proper good man'... I'm thinking yeah he's a single man, good luck to him."

The star previously took part in the show in 2014 - alongside Sam Faiers and 'Made In Chelsea's Ollie Locke - and certainly provided viewers with endless entertainment as he got himself caught up in a bitter love triangle between Casey Bachelor and Jasmine Waltz, which contributed to his surprise live eviction.

Details on the forthcoming series are being kept under wraps for the time being but it's believed Jasmine Lennard, Katie Hopkins, Perez Hilton, James Jordan and famous lovers Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag are rumoured to make a return.

Model Bianca Gascoigne - the step-daughter of football legend Paul Gascoigne - is also rumoured to be entering the house when the series kicks off in January.

A source said recently: "Not only is Bianca great value on her own she's also related to one of Britain's most famous and talked-about football stars. Producers think Bianca will be a big hit with viewers. She's a gorgeous girl who isn't afraid of flashing the flesh. She's also feisty and willing to speak her mind and stick up for herself. Bianca can be sweet, but she's not a walkover."
