Loose Women star Jane Moore appears to have accidentally ‘confirmed’ a huge name supposedly lined up for Celebrity Big Brother.
With the star-studded reality show set to return to screens on Monday on its new home on ITV, fans are excited to see who’ll be heading into the iconic house.
While names won’t be officially confirmed until launch night, it’s not stopped rumours from flying.
A report from The Sun earlier this week confirmed that we could expect to see the likes of Nikita Kuzmin, David Potts, Bradley Riches, Zeze Millz, Marisha Wallace, Colson Smith, Fern Britton, Louis Walsh, Lauren Simon, Gary Goldsmith, Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Levi Roots.
None other than Sharon Osbourne was also said to be an extra special guest for this year’s series – something that’s been sort-of-maybe-potentially-confirmed on an ITV programme today.

The Loose Women panel discussed Osbourne, 71, on Friday’s episode, with presenter Jane Moore talking about their experiences on the road together after interviewing the star as part of her live tour.
“Do you know what?” she began.
“She is such a joy to interview because she’s so honest."

Nadia Sawalha then asked with a cheeky smile on her face: “But would she answer the question as to whether she’s going into the Big Brother house?”
Without missing a beat, Moore replied: “Yes, she is!”
As the audience watched on in shock, a stunned Kaye Adams then asked: “She’s going into the Big Brother house?!”
Sawalha then admitted that she ‘wasn’t expecting’ Moore to answer, as everyone in the studio burst into laughter.

“I don’t think ITV have confirmed that, just a rumour!” Adams said quickly, as Moore added with a wry grin: “Okay, no, sorry – it’s ‘rumoured’ that she’s going in...
“[...] She will be amazing!”

According to The Sun, the former X Factor judge has indeed reportedly signed up to the show.
"She isn’t afraid to say what’s on her mind and has a wealth of showbiz stories up her sleeves," a source told the outlet.
"She is guaranteed entertainment and sure to be a hit with viewers."
ITV, however, remains tight-lipped about the lineup of celebs, with an ITV spokesperson previously telling Tyla: "Any names are at this point pure speculation and viewers will have to tune in to see who will be entering the Celebrity Big Brother house."
