The 41-year-old star has appeared in numerous episodes of 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' alongside his famous BFF and show bosses are hoping that he will be an exciting addition to the line-up.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Jonathan has a unique insight into the world's most famous couple. He'll also make great TV as he's not afraid to shy away from a row and he's pretty outspoken."

And it has been claimed that Jonathan - who was reportedly offered a six-figure sum - has been given Kim's blessing to appear on the Channel 5 show.

An insider told The Sun newspaper: "Bosses have been hoping to land a member of the Kardashian family's inner circle for years, and now they've finally got one.

"Jonathan has had many offers from other reality TV shows in the past but has always turned them down out of respect for Kim.

"Now she's given her his blessing and the entire family are going to be backing home the whole way."
