Scotty T
MTV bosses had booked the 29-year-old party animal for the flirty new series alongside Marnie Simpson but have cut him from production plans following his suspension from 'Geordie Shore' because they're worried his issues will be "exacerbated" and he'll go completely off the rails.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Scotty's got issues at the moment. He was being mooted for the new show and now he's not doing it. He's not ready to do that kind of thing because of those issues.
"Production feel an element of responsibility with him. He's clearly got a problem. They can't put him into more filming when his problems are going to be exacerbated."
Despite his work troubles, Scotty is contracted to complete filming series 15 of 'Geordie Shore', though he was left behind when the cast went to film episodes in Rome.
The source explained: "He's not finished series 15 of 'Geordie Shore'. He did the first half of the series when they were filming in Newcastle but when they flew to Rome him and Marty didn't go."
What's more, the lothario has been told he's not allowed to do anymore shooting after he failed to listen to pleas for him to sort out his wild partying.
A source said previously: "Scott has been removed from filming as he has not followed orders to clean up his act. His behaviour on set hasn't improved and the producers had no option but to send him packing.
"He was suspended last series for the very same thing and was told to go and sort himself out, which he did. But he is back at it again and they have had enough. They have banned him from filming the second half of the series."
