The "black sheep" of the Middleton family will appear on the nation's screens tomorrow night after negotiating a hefty contract with ITV show bosses.
Fears about what the 58-year-old could reveal are heightened after he previously scorned Harry and Meghan following the release of Spare.
Controversial businessman Goldsmith, and brother of Kate's mum Carole, arrived at the London studios on Sunday prepped for his CBB entrance.
He was pictured getting out of a black Audi donning a navy cap, jeans, a grey hoodie and a leather jacket.

Goldsmith headed into the building with two silver hardware cases and a suit carrier.
A source previously said: “Gary is champing at the bit to get on Celebrity Big Brother.
“He finalised the terms of his deal and can’t wait to enter the house.”
He could say something inappropriate and it can be quite dangerous

Goldsmith angled for a spot on I’m A Celebrity last year but was turned away over fears it could embarrass Kate and William.

Royal experts have since slammed the decision to welcome him into the CBB house - branding the move "embarrassing" and potentially "dangerous" to the Royals during an already difficult time.
Kate is still recuperating from her abdominal surgery in January while King Charles puts on a brave face as he receives cancer treatment.
Angela Levin told The Sun: "I think it's cringe-making, very embarrassing, the trouble is he doesn't like Harry and Meghan at all, some of this comments will fall onto Catherine and she's had a lot against her, she's not well.
"I think when you come out of an operation you're quite vulnerable and this could upset her enormously.
"In principle people who don't like her could say she encouraged him to do it, but she would have done nothing of the kind.
"It's very embarrassing.
CBB's Most Controversial Stars
CELEBRITY Big Brother has had its fair share of controversial bookings over the years.
- Gary Busey (Hollywood actor known for his temperament)
- Jim Davidson (whose controversial stand-up and political commentary led to calls for him to be 'cancelled')
- Dustin Diamond (Saved By The Bell star who later released his own sex tape)
- Courtney Stodden (model who married 51-year-old Green Mile star Doug Hutchison aged just 16)
- Michael Barrymore (who appeared on the show in the aftermath of the unsolved death of Stuart Lubbock at his home)
"It's very hard being a royal, and I don't know if this is a good idea.
"I don't think he's doing it for money, he's a multi-millionaire, maybe just to be heard, but that makes it worse.
"The trouble is with these programmes is they don't remember there are cameras running all the time, and he could say something inappropriate and it can be quite dangerous.
"It's not appropriate behaviour really."
Goldsmith's controversial history has seen him avoid prison twice.

In 2009, Goldsmith was embroiled in a sex scandal when he was caught cutting lines of cocaine for a prostitute at a wild party in Ibiza.
The business mogul then avoided prison again when found guilty of hitting his fourth wife Julie-Ann in a drunken row in 2017.
