Sophie Kasaei, 35, has done a dramatic u-turn and returned to Geordie Shore, just weeks after quitting in a pay row, with her team having come to a resolution.
The Sun understands the pay dispute was resolved after eleventh-hour talks with bosses.
A source revealed: "Execs were determined to keep Sophie in the show and didn't want to lose her.
"After some last minute meetings with her team, they managed to secure a deal everyone was happy with.
"Sophie and her boyfriend Jordan Brook missed the beginning of filming as the majority of the cast jetted out to Portugal last week, but they stunned the cast over the weekend when they turned up to surprise everyone."
The Sun has contacted MTV for comment.
This comes after The Sun exclusively revealed that Sophie left the show after not being given the pay rise she'd been seeking.
Sophie, who has been a staple on the hit reality show on-and-off since its 2011 debut, had been in negotiations trying to secure a pay rise.
But despite negotiations Sophie left because her team failed to agree with the show on a pay rise.
A source told The Sun: 'Sophie had been in discussions about a pay rise with MTV for months, but in the end, they couldn't agree on a figure.
Geordie Shore's Sophie Kasaei reveals emotional off-screen moment that left her in floods of tears
"Sophie decided to walk away as she felt she was worth more than they were offering - she has been on the show for a long time and brings a lot to the table.
"There was a lot of back and forth, and in the end, negotiations stalled.
"Sophie was gutted as she was really keen to come back, but she doesn't want to undersell herself.'
Just mere days ago, a fellow Geordie Shore star seemingly made a veiled dig at Sophie and the way in which she left the show.
Making light of the reason behind her exit, a fellow Geordie Shore star didn't hold back.
Without mentioning Sophie by name, Holly Hagan said on TikTok: "Nobody's better than anything just because they are or aren't on something.
"Everyone's got their reasons for doing personal things. This show is so much fun. I love being on it.
"I love being able to come away and just have a laugh, and let loose and make some good TV."
She added: "Last time I wasn't really participating as much just because I had an 11-month at home, and it made me really nervous about leaving him, and i wasn't really involved in much of the drama.
"Guys, I literally got to have a free holiday and got paid for it. I'm never not going to do this while it's still going.
"I'll still be there unless something really dramatic happens and I need to leave."

Jeremy Clarkson's daughter made Lisa Hogan 'burst into tears'
The 51-year-old former model and co-star on Amazon's Clarkson's Farm opened up about her life with the ex-Top Gear host, revealing that despite not being engaged, their blended family shares a close bond. Lisa explained that Emily, a social media influencer and author, has previously spoken about her own daughter in such a kind way in the past. I've said it before, but I think Clarkson's Farm is my favourite show of the past 5 years. It's funny and engaging, you learn a heap, and it's done such a great job on showing the world the plight of farmers and how essential they are. And, of course, Jezza is Jezza ❤️ — Andrew Johnston (@ARJ7X) May 26, 2025 She said: "Emily has this podcast called Shall I Delete That? and she spoke about my daughter in such a sweet way that I burst out crying. They've known each other for nine years, and I think they really care about each other." She also gave insights into Jeremy's personality away from the cameras, describing him as endlessly curious and brimming with energy, even over the smallest things. When discussing the prospect of marriage, Lisa expressed contentment with their relationship as it is, telling the Daily Mail: "Mrs Clarkson? No, thank you, I like Lisa Hogan. "We decided not to have children together." "We're at a stage where we are not going to have kids. I'm just happy pootling along. I think because of our age, it's much easier." Recommended reading: As the new series of Clarkson's Farm hits the screens, Jeremy's health sparked even more concern following his heart surgery last year to fit two stents. Reflecting on the latest episodes, Jeremy observed how he appeared increasingly unwell as the series went on. Speaking to The Sun, Jeremy said: "You can see me becoming more and more ill as the days go on, because I just lose my sense of humour, lose my ability to stay calm. "I get in a proper old panic. I didn't know at the time. I knew I wasn't being me. Because if you don't sleep, it very quickly has an effect."
