Shock Geordie Shore U-turn as ANOTHER star returns to MTV show just weeks after quitting
It comes after Scotty T returned to the show after being axed over a drugs scandal
ANOTHER Geordie Shore star has made a shock return to the show just weeks after quitting.
Earlier this week it was revealed Marnie Simpson had jetted to Thailand to join her Geordie Shore co-stars, despite insisting she wouldn’t film any new episodes.
Now it’s been revealed 32-year-old Marnie’s husband Casey Johnson has also backtracked after quitting the show alongside her.
Marnie shared a series of posts on her Instagram story showing former X Factor star Casey, 29, is in Thailand with the rest of them.
Previously Marnie confessed she would need to have “serious conversations” with producers before ever returning.
She added: “I’d have to really think about it.”
The Sun revealed this week how bosses had decided at the last minute to get Marnie out to Thailand.
A source told us: “Marnie coming back was an eleventh hour decision by bosses, as they were worried the new series didn’t have enough drama.
“The producers were really annoyed with the way Marnie left the show and slagged off the way the last series was edited, but when they got to Thailand to film the new series, they quickly realised something was missing.”
Marnie initially made the decision to walk away from Geordie Shore after a huge falling out with Charlotte Crosby while filming the last series.
The bust-up caused Charlotte, 34, to “quit forever” and she’s vowed never to return.
Because of this a TV insider last month told us that Marnie and Casey had decided not to film any new scenes for the MTV show.
A source said: “Marnie was really unhappy with how the last series went down and how she came across.
“It made her miserable and stressed and she doesn’t want to go back. Casey is fully supportive and has had enough too.
“They want a fresh start and don’t feel like they need the show anymore.”
It comes after show legend Scotty T returned after being axed over a drugs scandal in 2018.

We revealed how Gaz was finally in talks to return to the show for this series but he later revealed he’d pulled out again and is focusing on his two children.
A source previously said: “He really missed the show and knows it was his own fault he had to leave.
“The cast all still love him so they’re so happy he’s set to return. It means next series will be incredible – even though he’s done some stupid things in the past, he’s fun TV.
“Bosses have warned him this is his last chance and not to ruin it like he did last time.”
