Dog The Bounty Hunter’s crime fighting wife Beth Chapman to star in Celebrity Big Brother

DOG The Bounty Hunter’s crook-catching wife is to enter the Celebrity Big Brother house later this month.

Beth Chapman, who stars alongside hubby Duane on the cult reality show, is the latest star name confirmed for the Channel 4 reality show.

Being locked in the reality compound will be a new experience for the 49-year-old, whose day job involves her catching crooks and locking them up.

A source told The Sun online: “Getting Beth for the new series is a real coup for Channel 5.

“As reality stars go, she’s one of the world’s most recognisable, and she’s guaranteed to make great telly.

“She catches criminals for a living, she’s not going to tolerate any z-lister hissy fits and egos from her new housemates.”

As well as tearing around Hawaii in a blacked out truck looking for drug addicts and suspected murderers who have skipped bail, she’s a doting mum.

Beth has two children with Duane, who she wed in 2006, and two others from a previous relationship.

Dog The Bounty Hunter ran for eight series before it was cancelled in 2012.

The show was mired in controversy after Duane was recorded calling his son’s daughter the ‘N word’.

Since then Dog and Beth have starred in their own spin-off show, where they visit struggling bail agencies and help them snare their most wanted.

Also lined up for the new series are Chloe Mafia, X Factor reject Katie Waissel, Mob Wives star Renee Graziano and Gogglebox pair Stephen Webb and Chris Steed.
