Gabby Allen enters the Celebrity Big Brother house and meets ex Dan Osborne

 

Love Island 2017 star Gabby signed up for the show last month.

The fitness trainer, 25, will be ready to spill the beans on ex boyfriend Marcel Somerville, who cheated on her earlier this year, leading to their split.

She was heartbroken when she found out the Blazin’ Squad star had cheated and is doing the show as “something to push her out of her comfort zone” according to a source.

Gabby had to deny she’d slept with Jacqueline Jossa’s husband Dan Osborne earlier this year after Marcel accused them of hooking up while on a fitness bootcamp.

The bad boy Towie star will head into the Celebrity Big Brother house just weeks after his third child Mia (his second with wife Jacqueline Jossa) was born.

It's the first time he's appeared on TV since he was axed from Towie for his infamous "stab rant" in 2015.

He and Jacqueline split back in May after a series of rows about Dan working away from home.

He moved out of the family home, but after Mia’s birth, he moved back in to support his wife.

It’ll be awkward for Dan in the house – he’ll be in there with Gabby Allen, who he was accused of cheating on Jacqueline with.
