The pregnant TV presenter teased that the housemates will be joined by someone new any day now, during a chat with 'CBBBOTS' host Rylan Clark.

Speaking to Rylan on Friday (22.01.16) after Megan McKenna's eviction - she mused: "Who do you think it is?"

To which he replied: "I don't know but there's been a lot of rumours."

However Emma appeared to dampen rumours that the new celebrity will be Stephanie Davis' boyfriend Sam Reece.

The former 'Hollyoaks' star has formed a close friendship with Irish model Jeremy McConnell since entering the house and the pair have even ventured into the romance field, however many housemates have commented that Stephanie's long-term boyfriend would not be happy with their developing friendship.

And rumour is rife that 'CBB' bosses will amp up the drama by bringing Stephanie's boyfriend into the house.

However Emma appeared to agree that it would not be wise for Sam to go inside now, because it would put the couple's troubled relationship into the spotlight even more and make it a "mockery."

She said: "Everyone thinks it's Sam but I don't know, is the honest answer, part of me is hoping it's not because I think it will make a bit more of a mockery of their relationship."
