The 'The Only Way is Essex' star - who hasn't been seen on the reality TV show since earlier this year - has reportedly agreed to join the infamous house for three weeks when the next series returns to screens later this month.

A source told The Daily Star newspaper: "Producers know Lewis will be the perfect addition to the line-up."

Bosses are hoping the 26-year-old hunk will stir up some trouble in the abode with his hot-headed temperament but also provide some eye-candy for the females of the house.

The source explained: "They always wants a hunk in each series and he's great because he's got the look but also the personality. He won't be afraid to get into arguments."

The official line-up is yet to be announced by Channel 5 but it seems Lewis will be right at home as his friend Marnie Simpson is also rumoured to be entering the 'CBB' house.

A source said recently of her signing: "'Geordie Shore' members are used to being filmed drinking, rowing and even having sex so they are perfect to create explosive TV."

Meanwhile, actress Helen Flanagan, singer Anastacia and presenter Laura Whitmore are also reportedly on the hit list.

'Celebrity Big Brother' is set to hit screens on July 28 at 9pm.
