Stunning 22-year-old model Shakira Khan from Manchester has also lined up for this year's series in a bid to make it the hottest edition yet.
This was as personal trainer Aaron Buckett - who is a whopping 6 foot 5 inches tall - was the first personality revealed to take part this year.
As bosses have finalised their lineup plans, it has been a race against time for the producers working behind-the-scenes.
Work on the infamous Majorcan villa was previously reported to have been ten days behind schedule.
Crews were left scrambling and working around the clock to get the pad ready in time for launch.

Do Scotland need to reset expectations after 'bleak' campaign?

Leanne Crichton believes Scotland's "bleak" Nations League campaign can't end quickly enough, while fellow former international Joelle Murray has called for a reset of expectations amid the national team's "very underwhelming" were relegated from the top tier of the Nations League last week as Melissa Andreatta's tenure as head coach began with a 1-0 home loss to side play their final fixture away to the Netherlands tonight - live on BBC Scotland - seeking a first point after five successive defeats."It's been a real poor run of form for Scotland in terms of the results, even going back beyond this Nations League campaign," ex-midfielder Crichton told BBC Scotland."As bleak as this Nations League campaign has felt, we understand the magnitude of the challenge going up against real top sides in the Netherlands and Germany."The disappointment lies with the two Austria games, which when anybody looked at the draw would have been the two games that you earmarked as your potential three points and looked to maximise that opportunity."The fact we've lost on both occasions just leaves the nation feeling deflated."We've gone from qualifying for two back-to-back major tournaments [Euro 2017 and 2019 World Cup] and we've fallen off the edge of a cliff because we've not capitalised on that."We find ourselves now a huge transitional period."Former defender Joelle Murray echoed those sentiments, telling the BBC's Scottish Football podcast: "There's no hiding from it, it's been a very underwhelming, frustrating, disappointing campaign for the national team."It's maybe one of those ones where we may need to reset our expectations. What we've been experiencing, is that now our reality?"Do we need to reset, refocus and get back on a journey that gets us back to where we were in 2017 and 2019?"

Coronation Street newcomer Richard Winsor's secret past revealed in VERY sexy famous role

CORONATION Street newcomer Richard Winsor's secret past has been revealed in a very sexy famous role. The actor has joined the ITV soap for a guest stint in a storyline involving Todd Grimshaw and boyfriend Theo - but it's not his first foray into fame. 3 3 3 Former Casualty hunk Richard - who played Caleb Knight - found TV fame in the BBC soap. His character Caleb was stabbed to death by Scott Ellisson in Casualty in 2017. He was killed during a fight while trying to protect his brother, Ethan. Richard also starred in Hollyoaks as the sexy priest - Father Francis - who had an affair with Carmel McQueen (Gemma Merna). However years before he landed a major role as a ballet dancer. The star stripped off to appear as the lead in Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake. He said at the time: "I'm not a classical ballet dancer. "I never wanted to go into it or do classical ballets as such. That's why Matthew Bourne's company - in the early parts of my dance career -- was absolutely perfect for me. 'I saw his Swan Lake when I was in college and was just blown away. The level of narrative and story telling, the drama and passion behind it really hit me hard. That's what I wanted- to become the lead, the star of his company. 'I've been so fortunate and blessed that it happened.' StreetDance 3-D - Exclusive The character first appeared this week on screen later this month as he comes to visit his friend Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank). Noah's arrival on the cobbles soon sends shivers down the spine of Theo Silverton (James Cartwright) who instantly recognises Noah as one of the members of the conversion therapy sessions that he used to be forced to attend by his religious parents. Theo is spooked by Noah's presence and soon reveals all to his boyfriend Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) about who Billy's new pal really is.

Sophie Habboo & Jamie Laing's sauciest sex confessions – from mismatched libidos to ‘electrifying romps'

Yasmin Harisha, Senior writer Published: Invalid Date, FROM electrifying romps to unexpected coregasms and even admitting they might need to enrol in "sex school," Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo have never exactly been shy when it comes to spilling the tea on their sex life. The Made in Chelsea duo have built their brand on oversharing and honesty, and now their love story is taking a whole new turn. 16 16 The couple just announced they're expecting their first baby. Sophie, 30, shared a heart-warming video from a hospital scan, confirming the news and giving fans a glimpse into their next big chapter. But don't think they've gone completely PG... In true Jamie, 36, and Sophie fashion, their most eyebrow-raising confessions include everything from mid-workout orgasms to sexcapades that probably should have stayed behind closed doors. And yes, apparently there was a moment where they genuinely wondered if they needed formal sex education - because things got that chaotic. Who knew growing a family could be so… steamy? Electrifying Romps Speaking about their recent shoot with The Times, Sophie revealed that she was left a little red-faced after Jamie decided to add a little more information into one of the journalist's questions. Sophie Habboo & Jamie Laing make saucy confessions about their 'electrifying' romps & being 'sex icons' She said that Jamie 'decided to tell her the first time we had sex and it was electrifying, and looked at me like ahah.' Sophie continues: 'And I'm like 'are you f**king OK mate? Like you had an electric shock.' First time a charm Back in 2022 on ITV2's Shopping with Keith Lemon show, Jaimie decided to do a tell-all about their first time having sex. He explained that the pair were 'quite drunk and we both orgasmed!' Also gushing that he has 'never loved anything more in my entire life' while also describing it as 'electric.' Chatting to Keith about getting engaged, Jamie said: 'With Sophie, I've never loved anything more in my entire life, she is just the greatest. 'When we first had sex, we were quite drunk and we both orgasmed. ' Keith replied jokingly, saying: 'Well you did.' To which Jamie answered: 'Cause I'm a legend!' He then went on to give a few more details, adding: 'When I orgasmed I was a bit drunk and I was on top of her and I said to her 'Did you feel that?' It was so electric!' 16 16 Sex Icons Speaking on their podcast, Sophie explained that women have developed a soft spot for Jamie after he completed his Ultra Marathon this year, leading it onto whether they think of themselves as 'sex icons.' Jaimie asked Sophie if she thinks he is good looking, to which she replied: ' Yes, I am married to you you weirdo. ' Jamie added: 'Do you think I'm sexy?' Sophie replied: 'I did when we were dating and I do now. But you show your bum crack to me. That isn't sexy.' But Jamie replied: 'I've seen your a***hole, I've seen you poop and I still find you sexy. I find you the sexiest thing on this earth.' Coregasms It's a spontaneous orgasm experienced during an intense workout, and Sophie claims to have experienced one while working out in the gym. Speaking on her previous weekly Wednesdays podcasts, which she hosted with former co-star Melissa Tattam, the friends discussed unusual situations in which they've climaxed. "I definitely remember like doing an ab workout in the gym in Newcastle and being like 'what the f**k just happened?'," Sophie said. "It's very common isn't it," she continued. "It was like a different type of orgasm, but it was something going on," the reality star went on. According to Sophie, you can achieve the sensation by going the extra mile with core Exercises. And how do you know if you've had one? According to experts at Verywell Fit, it feels similar to an orgasm you get while engaging in sexual activities, with some key differences. For women, a coregasm may feel like a deep vaginal orgasm, which could be extra pleasurable for women who can't achieve orgasm during vaginal penetration. Heading to 'sex school ' In a previous episode of the couples Newlyweds podcast, Jaimie underwent a saucy lie detector test, which left Sophie a bit lost for words. In one of the questions to Jamie, who was hooked up to a polygraph, Sophie asked: 'Do you think our sex could improve?' Jamie laughs and Sophie says: 'Are you joking? Your side maybe.' And he added: 'I think it can, yes,' to which the lie detector examiner confirms: 'Truthful.' Jamie then whispered 'sorry' to his wife, who then proceeded to tell him that he needs to go to a ' sex school '. Sexual fantasies 16 16 16 Moving on to the next question, Sophie asks: 'Are there any sexual fantasies you have that you haven't told me?' Starting to chuckle to himself, Jamie says: 'No... I just can't.' To which Sophie replies: 'Oh my god,' and the examiner goes on to confirm that her husband's answer is in fact a lie. This lead Sophie onto probe him by saying: 'Oh my god, you're f***ing rank, like what? 'Like what? Sexual fantasies, what's that, someone's dressing up?' Jamie replies: 'Sophie, just ask the question, go on,' to which she goes on to ask if he would like to dress up as a 'schoolgirl'. 'No,' Jamie says. This then got a thumbs down from the polygraph examiner, to which Sophie goes onto slam her husband saying: 'What the f*** you absolute pervert.' Bog Standard Sex Speaking very candidly about their marriage, Jamie explained that he 'can't be bothered' to perform as much now when it comes to getting frisky in the sheets. In a hilariously candid interview with The Sun, he confessed: 'Sophie did say I was bog standard at sex and that is probably a fair description. You get worse as you get married. You become lazy. 'I used to start doing joined-up handwriting then I thought, 'I can't be bothered with that as it's quicker for me to not do it joined up', I'm a bit like that in the bedroom. "I don't give up half way but I do remember that once I rolled on top of Sophie and she said, ' Oh, get on with it'. ' Finding the vibration 16 16 16 In 2022, the former Made in Chelsea favourites let listeners of their podcast into an awkward encounter they had with their cleaner. They explained that they had misplaced one of their 'massive' sex toys, only for their cleaner to find it. Talking about getting things a bit 'frisky', Jamie explained that they had ordered a toy online, but despite 'never using it' the 'cleaner found it!' But Sophie quickly interrupted asking: 'What toy?" Jamie replied: ' It was a massive thing - a vibrator!" 16 Attempting to control his laughter, he added: "The cleaner found it! It had been left on the side. "It wasn't!" Sophie stops him. "I'd said, 'Where is it?' because my mum came to stay. I said, 'Did you move that thing?'". "I did move it, but the cleaner found it!" Jamie teases again. "What do you mean she found it?" Sophie replies. "She came into your room and said, 'Here's your toy?' It would be something that Anna would watch for us, like she honestly gets down and dirty, she does not care." "There was this big pink vibrator," Jamie chuckles. "I don't know why it was even bought, but it was bought!" "Just to look at, I'm sure," Sophie laughs. "Just out of pure fascination." "It's so aggressive!" Jamie bursts out. "It's got weird big little finger-hand things on it! That is not a ' Rampant Rabbit ', it's more like a rampant hare! It's absolutely massive - it's got the longest legs I've ever seen in my life." Sophie replies: "You're insinuating that you have a tiny penis right now by being so shocked by the size of a standard-size vibrator!" Sex on the mind Jamie previously got candid about the difference between his and his wife's libidos, after answering questions from listeners. One fan asked: "Who's the horniest?" "We both agree on that one," Jamie said after both he and his wife named him. He then went on to admit: " I honestly would have sex every day, ' before adding that his wife had a much lower libido than him, joking that she "would have sex every five years." Oh wait, this is a podcast… forget it. We have had friends who have scheduled time to have sex Jamie Lang However, Sophie clarified that she would actually have sex up to twice a year. "No, I'd have it on your birthday and at Christmas and that would be perfectly [fine]," she said. Jamie went on to tell a story about Sophie's unbothered response about sex. "If this isn't sexy, I don't know what is," he joked. "The other day I was a little bit frisky. I said to Sophie: 'Oh come on honey, let's just do it.' "Sophie's response was 'Alright but I'm not going to do anything.'" "That is only because this boy is like in heat all the time," Sophie explained. "So sometimes I'm like: 'F**k that, I'm not doing anything, I'm exhausted.'" 'Real' & passionate The pair enjoyed not one but two lavish wedding ceremonies in 2023, and Sophie joked she was going ' to have real passionate sex ' with her husband Jamie after the second wedding ceremony in Seville on May 19. 16 16 16 Having spoken about other friends 'who have scheduled time to have sex' during their big day, Sophie revealed that she wouldn't want to do that as she'd be 'quite tired' after celebrating. She also revealed that she would find it embarrassing that everyone knows 'they're sh***ing tonight.' Speaking to GK Barry on the Saving Grace podcast, Sophie 'felt sick' discussing the topic of sex on their wedding night, as Jamie "forgot' they were filming a podcast. He added: 'Oh wait, this is a podcast… forget it. We have had friends who have scheduled time to have sex. 'I think getting married there is a lot going on. It's also a really strange and weird thing. 'You have all your friends and family there, you have to walk down the aisle, you have to do a dance, you have to do speeches, you have to stand up and say all these different things. 'Everything is really hectic that by the end of the night you're just knackered.' Sophie added: 'Thank god you're saying that! I think we will be quite tired that night.'
