A TV source said: “Bosses have approached Georges and chatted to him about a potential spot on Celebs Go Dating.
"They think he was so entertaining on MAFS and he’s a lovely guy to boot, so they are confident viewers will want to see him have his happy ending after things didn’t work out with Peggy.
"It’s not a done deal yet though, as there are other famous faces in the mix and casting have got to get the right balance of names, but Georges is interested.”
The Sun has contacted Georges' rep for comment.

Peggy and Georges overcame a series of obstacles on Mafs after being paired together by show experts.
Online coach Georges left Peggy fuming when he admitted he'd be happy for her to show off her body on adult platform OnlyFans, if it was what she wanted.
And there was further disagreement over Georges' gaming live-streams in which he carries out all manner of bizarre antics.
One resurfaced clip saw him squatting while dressed in a leopard print outfit and fake comedy moustache.

However, the relationship ultimately broke down amid accusations of cheating, which Georges vigorously denied.
Peggy announced their split on Valentine’s Day and things quickly turned sour between the pair online.
MAFS’ Georges claps back with shady dig at ‘people who can’t love themselves’ as Peggy rips into him after split
In an explosive interview with The Sun, Peggy hit out at her ex after their relationship came crumbling down – and insisted it was his decision to split.
She said: “Georges ended things with me on the 30th January so for him to come out and say he was blindsided by my Instagram post is a load of rubbish.
"I wasn’t going to say anything about what he put me through but enough is enough and everyone deserves to know the truth.
“I never wanted to do a story about our relationship. I wanted to remain dignified but after he made up all that rubbish about me, I just want everyone to know the truth. I was heartbroken.”

Georges denied being unfaithful, with a source close to him saying he didn't split with Peggy and "she just presumed".
Peggy claimed she first thought he was cheating in December of last year when he took his ex-girlfriend to an event – and pretended she was a boy.
Shortly afterwards he took her to Winter Wonderland, but it was when he went to a Christmas party without Peggy, that she started to grow really suspicious.
She explained: “Every time I’m out he tells me ‘you must message me when you’re home.’ This night he never messaged me to say he was back at the hotel.
“I said ‘shall I meet you at the hotel’ and he was like, no, no, no I won’t be back until late'. He messaged me the next morning apologising that he didn’t message me.
“He denied spending the night with her. I was crying my eyes out.
