The glam mum-of-three splits her time between London and the Cotswolds and is the founder of the Chelsea Cake Company and Cooking with Kids & Co.
Her work has seen her make "cakes and goodies for royalty and celebs all around the world" and helped land her a place in the famous Bake Off tent.
A glimpse at her Instagram account reveals delicious food, luxury interiors and extravagant days out at the likes of Wimbledon and Britain's Got Talent final.
Joining Nessie on the show is socialite Amanda Cronin - who dated the 80s pop Andrew Ridgeley.
The 56-year-old previously told of her pride about her relationship with George Michael's bandmate, jokingly boasted: "It'll make a fabulous chapter in my memoir."
It's hoped she will divulge details of their whirlwind romance.
Skincare business owner Amanda is best known for being on The Millionairess And Me, which documented her unlikely friendship with a formerly homeless film-maker Martin Read.
She gained attention for talking about her £10million jewellery collection and £200,000 chauffeur-driven Bentley, while volunteering in a charity shop in the Welsh town of Merthyr Tydfil.
Amanda met Andrew in the summer of 2022 - five years after his split from Bananarama's Keren Woodward - when they were seated together at a friend's birthday dinner.
Millionaire socialite Panthea Parker is also expected to sign up for the show in order to show off her jet-setting glamorous lifestyle.

Panthea becomes the first name to be heavily linked to the show which is expected to air exclusively on streaming service Hayu this year.
She already proudly declares herself as a housewife in a slew of captions on her Instagram account which features a tonne of snaps from her luxury life.
Snaps from her Instagram reveal her enjoying life aboard a private jet and enjoying swanky parties at Mansion House.
Panthea has even visited 10 Downing Street and rubbed shoulders with politics' elite.

Sue Cleaver reflects on '25 years of laughs' after Coronation Street exit
Eileen Grimshaw had a special send-off during Friday's episode of the soap, where she was seen leaving for Thailand alongside her son Jason Grimshaw, played by Ryan Thomas. Simon Gregson's character Steve McDonald, Tony Maudsley's George Shuttleworth, and Eileen's son Todd, played by Gareth Pierce, all said goodbye to the matriarch before drivers from the local taxi firm honked their horns as she was driven off. In an Instagram post, Cleaver said: 'Well… that's a wrap. 25 years of laughs, tears, costumes, chaos — and one unforgettable journey. A post shared by Sue Cleaver (@officialsuecleaver) 'I'll miss this character like crazy, but what a ride it's been. Thank you for every moment.' Cleaver has played the outspoken and uncomplicated Eileen in the ITV show since 2000. Eileen came to Weatherfield to work at the local taxi firm, Streetcars, to provide for her two tearaway teenage children, Jason and Todd. She soon became friends with her boss Steve and came into conflict with Helen Worth's character Gail Rodwell (also known as Gail Platt). Cleaver took part in I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2022, where she opened up about reconciling with her birth mother, and was eliminated third. She also said her family is 'bizarrely interconnected' to other Coronation Street stars, including Worth who is godmother to one of her half-sisters, while her other half-sister's husband, John Bowe, appeared on the cobbles as Duggie Ferguson. In 2024, she released a book A Work In Progress in which she discusses how she feels she is not past her prime. In recent years she has appeared as a panellist on ITV chat show Loose Women.

Meghan Markle shares video of her, Prince Harry and their kids at Disneyland
Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, continues to share sweet snippets of her family life with husband Prince Harry and their two kids, Archie and Lilibet. In her latest Instagram post, the former Meghan Markle shared a video collage filled with photos of their trip to Disneyland for their daughter's fourth birthday. 'Thank you @disneyland for giving our family two days of pure joy!' Meghan captioned her post Friday. The video, set to Peggy Lee's 'It's a Good Day,' shows Lilbet and Archie meeting Elsa and Anna from 'Frozen.' In all the pictures she included of their little ones, their faces are obscured or covered with a heart. The recap of their trip to the Happiest Place on Earth also includes the family on rides like Tiana's Bayou Adventure, Dumbo the Flying Elephant, Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, the Cars Land ride and many more. There's also a silly photo of Meghan and Harry screaming while on Space Mountain. The two are sitting front row with their mouths wide open — yet appearing like they're having fun. And the festivities continued for the family of four. Meghan also shows Lilibet's 'Little Mermaid' birthday cake, their Mickey and Minnie stuffed dolls, the corn dogs and pickles they munched on during their trip and several other family photos from the park. Among the cutest is one of all four posing together, in which Lilibet is barefoot and in a pink dress with bows. The latest look into Meghan's personal home life comes after she celebrated her daughter's birthday on June 4. The former 'Suits' star shared a number of photos of her little girl from when she was born to their most recent adventures together. There were also snaps of Harry and his 'favorite adventurer' holding hands. 'Happy birthday to our beautiful girl! Four years ago today she came into our lives — and each day is brighter and better because of it. Thanks to all of those sending love and celebrating her special day!' Meghan wrote in her first post. Additionally, she also posted a never-before-seen video of when she was pregnant with Lilibet and dancing with Harry at the hospital in hopes to induce labor. 'Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work — there was only one thing left to do!' she captioned the fun and rare video of them. Meghan returned to Instagram on Jan. 1 after leaving the platform in early 2018 during her highly publicized engagement to Harry. Among her posts include family photos, outings and news about her podcast, Netflix projects and more.
