In scenes set to air next week, Kerry is sent off on a date with Dylan Tennant in the hopes of her finding some romance. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 7 Kerry Katona is matched with a former Big Brother star on Celebs Go Dating Credit: Channel4 7 Dylan previously appeared on Big Brother in 2023 Credit: Rex 7 Kerry is now completely loved up with hunky new man, Paolo Credit: BackGrid DJ Dylan, who appeared on the civilian version of Big Brother in 2023, tried his cheeky charm on the star, shortly after splitting with his girlfriend, Gabriella, last year. Unfortunately for him, someone else has better luck, with Kerry going public since filming ended with toyboy Paolo Margaglione who she met later on on the show. A source told The Sun Online: 'Dylan's a real character and he's also looking for love - he's also not shy or impressed by celebs as he meets so many in his job. 'The experts knew he'd be a good match for Kerry, but she only had eyes for another man on the show so Dylan was out of luck!' The Sun Online has reached out to Dylan for comment. Dylan, who is also a music producer, lived a lavish lifestyle before appearing on reality TV, having regular performing stints in Ibiza. The Coventry-native also still keeps in touch with his Big Brother housemates, sharing pictures partying with fellow former housemates Ali Bromley, Lily Benson and Daze Aghaji two weeks ago. The star became notable for sharing his story about having to have his leg amputated in 2017, following a head-on collision with a taxi while riding his motorbike in Tenerife. He later launched a YouTube channel called 'An Amputee Abroad' which documented his rehabilitation and desire to travel the world in the wake of his accident. Kerry returns to our screens tonight as part of Celebs Go Dating's newest clients – joining the likes of Love Island's Liv Hawkins, The Chase's Mark Labbett, and S Club 7's Jon Lee. Love Island's Olivia Hawkins shares steamy snog with Celebs Go Dating co-star at Ibiza pool party But we already know that her time with the dating agency is a success, with Kerry already jetting off with personal trainer Paolo on a sunsoaked getaway. She's also moved him into her home after just two months together. Paolo is Kerry's first relationship since her split with long-time fiancé Ryan Mahoney after a 'breach of trust', and it came as a surprise to her, with her admitting she was appearing on the show mainly for financial reasons. Speaking exclusively to The Sun Kerry said: "I was adamant I was not interested, I just wanted the money, the paycheque, a bit of publicity and therapy. I was adamant I was not interested at all [in dating]." Opening up about dating younger men on the show, Kerry insisted that age really is just a number - with the star having an 11 year age-gap with her new man Paolo. 7 Kerry says she 'feels 21' as she dismissed fears over her 11-year age gap with Paolo Credit: BackGrid 7 Kerry's lessons in love are set to play out on Celebs Go Dating Credit: Channel4 Kerry joked: "I feel like 21, so who cares! "For me it's energy, it doesn't matter who you are - an age gap is an age gap, as long as you're happy and have that connection. "You could be with the same person for the next 10 years and be miserable as anything, it doesn't matter." A source said of her new man: "Paolo's got an amazing body but he's also a sweet guy to boot. "He's a single dad to two girls, so he has his head screwed on and is responsible.'

Celebs Go Dating's Mark Labbett reveals he was forced to quit date after shock health scare
The quiz genius has been open about his health battles in the past DATE HALTED Celebs Go Dating's Mark Labbett reveals he was forced to quit date after shock health scare CELEBS Go Dating's Mark Labbett has revealed he was forced to quit one of his date's after a shock health scare. The Chase star, 59, signed up for the E4 dating show in a bid to find love again after his split from TV presenter girlfriend Hayley Palmer. 4 Mark Labbett revealed he was forced to quit his date early after a health scare Credit: Matt Monfredi / Channel 4 4 The Chase star revealed he had a hypoglycemia episode while filming the E4 show Credit: Rex Mark, who was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2017, recalled one date that ended prematurely during filming after he had a hypoglycemia episode. Hypoglycemia, also known as low blood sugar, is a condition where the glucose level in your blood drops too low. Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Mark said: "The hardest part of the process was the long filming and unfortunately for me I'm diabetic and I wear a glucose monitor and my glucose levels went off the scale and I had a full hypoglycemia episode and I might have got a little bit grumpy. "Afterwards I did apologise to everyone. "It overran by so much and I hadn't had my pills and the right food. "I got it back down to normal very quickly once I had a walk and plenty of water, it went right back down. "I've realised now if I do another reality TV show, I'm going to have to build into the contract siesta breaks, I like my naps." The 6ft 7 quiz king, known as 'The Beast', has had a rocky road to love - and turned to the Celebs Go Dating experts to finally crack the dating game. Mark opened up about returning to the dating scene saying: "I've been a single man most of my life. "I'll admit, I'm not the most clued up person when it comes to relationships, I summarise it - I'm the person who can tell you that Astana is the capital of Kazakhstan but what's the name of that pretty girl who gives me the funny half smile... The Chase's Mark Labbett breaks silence on split from TV star girlfriend as he reveals heartbreaking reason he ended it "So I listened to the experts who were very good." Mark admitted let himself be fully vulnerable during the process but quipped: "I didn't like it." Co-star Kerry Katona said: "When you go into something like this, you really have to surrender yourself, you walk in for the deep chats and you think 'you've got this, you'll be fine', but they're so good at what they do and you don't realise these things about yourself and it's quite scary." Mark continued: "It's the realisation I'm turning into my grandmother, she's a grumpy lady from Barnsley. "I was really lucky, Kerry was jealous as hell as all of my dates were stnning," with Kerry joking: "Mark was getting 10 out of 10s here." Mark continued: "Some of the dates went on really late, I'm 60 this month, I get to the point that I'm ready for bedtime." The quiz master has previously spoke to The Sun about his health. Mark, who has shed ten stone in recent years, admitted years of having a sweet tooth impacted his health long-term. "I was diagnosed back in 2016 and by 2018 I almost got un-diabetic. I must confess, I have a habit to cheat and reward myself, it's my sin," he said. "I don't drink, don't smoke, don't do drugs, don't gamble, don't have any loose women in my life. Everyone's got a sin and mine happens to be sugar but I didn't realise how bad." How to lower your risk of type 2 diabetes ABOUT half of all cases of type 2 diabetes could be prevented or delayed by healthy eating, moving more and losing weight, according to Diabetes UK. Swap sugary fizzy drinks for water, milk, tea or coffee Choose high-fibre carbs like brown rice, wholewheat pasta and wholegrain bread Cut down on red and processed meat Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables Reduce your alcohol intake Opt for healthy fats like olive oil and avocado instead of butter, lard and ghee Limit yourself to one teaspoon (6g) of salt a day Go for a 10-minute walk after each meal Walk on the spot during TV ad breaks MARK'S DATING PAST Mark ended his relationship with journalist Hayley Palmer, just weeks after they celebrated their one-year anniversary with a Beefeater pub meal and walk on the beach. Mark revealed that the split was down to him and his age - saying "It's me, I got old". Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Mark opened up about the reason for the split, saying: "She's [Hayley's] a lovely lady and I was very lucky to date her for a year, and as I said... it's me, I got old." Mark, who has been on The Chase for 15 years, first wooed Hayley with his Toby Carvery Gold Card. Although Mark is enjoying his bachelor life, he is not short of offers - saying his DMs have been flooded with messages from single women. He also confirmed that he won't be signing up to any celebrity dating apps like Raya, saying: "Definitely not a dating app! What's the old phrase... when you're in a dessert, you're desperate for water. "I'm in a situation where we went out on Saturday night and I got a load of people come over to talk to me on various things and you don't feel any particular needs, it's just nice to chat to people. "Sometimes you've got to be realistic and go pick appropriately or whatever. "While every man is looking for pretty girls, I'm looking for smart girls, call me strange." Meanwhile, Hayley described their breakup as "traumatic" after he callously ended things during a brutal three-minute phone call. Mark and Katie, who are also second cousins, were together for seven years, but split when their attempts at an open marriage failed. They first started speaking on Facebook in 2010, unaware of their familial connection. Katie's dad and Mark's father are first cousins, making them second cousins. Mark said of the unusual connection: "It wasn't something we were aware of at the time - it was one of those things that happened." Mark married nurse Katie at Arundel Castle in West Sussex in October 2014. The Sun revealed how Katie had been cheating with a local man 25 years Mark's junior. We also revealed how she had holidayed with a 28-year-old hunk called Scott Bate behind her famous husband's back. 4 Mark and TV presenter Hayley Palmer split shortly after their one year anniversary Credit: Instagram

CGD agents breaks silence on ‘romance' with Olivia Hawkins and Louis Russell after stars spotted kissing on away trip
THE CELEBS Go Dating agents have broken their silence on Olivia Hawkins and Louis Russell breaking the reality show's rules. Love Island star Olivia, 30, and Too Hot To Handle's Louis, 24, hit it off after landing in Ibiza to film the E4 show and were spotted snogging poolside. 5 Celebs Go Dating's Olivia Hawkins and Louis Russell broke show rules Credit: ©Nic Serpell-Rand 2024 5 Olivia and Louis naturally gravitated towards each other after the first mixer Credit: ©Nic Serpell-Rand 2024 5 Paul C. Brunson admitted Olivia's biggest dating dilemma was her 'self worth' Credit: Nic Serpell-Rand / Channel 4 In an exclusive interview, love gurus Anna Williamson, Paul C. Brunson and Dr Tara revealed what really happened between Olivia and Louis when The Sun visited the Celebs Go Dating agency ahead of the new series. Anna said: "I mean celebrity on celebrity, every series there's always a few cross eyes, aren't there?" As it stands, it is very much a dot dot dot." The agents admitted Olivia and Louis naturally gravitated towards each other after the first mixer. "Every time we're in a big mixer, it's always interesting to see how the celebrities start to bond and it's always interesting that this is a show which is very exposing - they come in and they're full of nerves naturally and what happens when that happens? You tend to gravitate to people that are in your proximity, so it's not unusual of course, I think celebs like to stick together," Anna revealed. "Sometimes we see looks here and there, but whether they turn into anything... is really time will tell." In the past, hook-ups between co-stars were frowned upon, but now the experts embrace it if there's a chance it can lead to a genuine connection. Anna continued: "This is real life as well, it's something we don't necessarily advocate but then again it's real life and the celebrities know that if there's a genuine attraction - if it's just a safety, we'll notice it and call it out. "But we'll always observe from the sidelines and if anything feels like it needs jumping in on, then we will." While Paul agreed and said there is a deeper psychology behind why celebrities form romantic connections on the show. Paul shared: "I think an important note on this, is that we typically do what we feel is safe and low risk but it's not always the best thing for us. Inside the Celebs Go Dating house with Anna Williamson and Dr. Tara ahead of the new series "You'll see that celebrities have this repetition of doing what is safe and that is ending up matching or thinking they are going to match together, because it is very safe, of course you're going to see it. "They're two very compelling people individually. Sex and relationship expert Dr Tara insisted the point of the show is to encourage the celebrities to step outside their comfort zone. She said: "It's Celebrity Dating Agency, not Celebrity Dating each other agency, so we always try to encourage them to explore and expand and learn new things and learn about new people and not just stay within a comfort zone, we give them a big push to try new things." Olivia, who appeared on Love Island in 2023, before returning for the All Stars series in 2025, was unlucky-in-love both times. The brunette beauty said fellas never ask her out after she was first painted as a troublemaker in the villa. In fact, the beauty, who has been an actress and a ring girl, claims she has never had a proper 'boyfriend', in a recent interview with The Sun. Paul admitted the Liv's biggest dating dilemma was her "self worth". He said they welcomed every celebrity to the agency with a "clean slate", despite public perceptions. Paul said: "I think there's an assumption that we identify with the publics perception of the celebrity. "I think it's an important point to note, that typically we're unaware of that public perception and we try to give everyone a clean slate, whether we're familiar with them or not. "The idea is that you come in and you start fresh with us. That allows us to prejudge or place inappropriate values in certain areas. "Liv is that exact person, she came in clean slate." Olivia and Louis had swapped flirty messages on social media ahead of the trip and later were seen kissing by a pool, with an insider said the sexual chemistry was very obvious. LOUIS NEW GIRL Despite hopes of a romance between Louis and Olivia, just days ago he stepped out with his famous new girlfriend. Louis posed on the red carpet holding hands with Love Island US star Huda Mustafa as they attended a film premiere in Los Angeles. Only a few days ago, the pair were spotted in London together just days after the Love Island US star left the villa. Huda made waves during this years Love Island USA when she revealed to the cast she was a mum and became one of the shows most followed islanders. The new series kicks off on August 11th at 9pm and it will include TV personality Kerry Katona, Love Island's Olivia Hawkins, comedian and CBB star Donna Preston, and Too Hot To Handle's Louis Russell giving it their best shot at the dating agency. And things between Louis and Olivia quickly get steamy. A show insider revealed: 'It usually takes a few weeks for things to spice up but not with these two. 'Within 48 hours of arriving in Ibiza the sexual spark between them was obvious. "They clearly couldn't resist each other.'

Celebs Go Dating agents reveal the ‘real reason' Christine McGuiness quit the E4 show and admit it was a ‘brave' move
THE CELEBS Go Dating agents have revealed the "real reason" Christine McGuinness quit the E4 show just weeks into the process. The model - who was married to comedian Paddy McGuinness, 51, until their split in 2022 - signed up alongside six other famous faces in the bid to find love and get help on their dating life. 5 The Celebs Go Dating agents revealed the 'real reason' for Christine McGuinness' exit Credit: Channel 4 5 The model quit the E4 show after a short stint Credit: Instagram/mrscmcguinness 5 Anna Williamson said Christine's decision to join the show took 'bravery' Credit: Instagram But early into the process, Christine, 37, announced that she had quit after becoming "overwhelmed" with the attention on her love life and missing her family. In an exclusive interview, love gurus Anna Williamson, Paul C. Brunson and Dr Tara opened up Christine's sudden exit when The Sun visited the Celebs Go Dating agency ahead of the new series. Anna admitted Christine's decision to join the show after her public split was a "brave" move, and it equally took courage for her exit the process after discovering it "wasn't the right time" for her. Anna explained: "It wasn't the right time for Christine to continue her journey in the agency. "I think this is the absolute beauty of what the Celebrity Dating agency does - yes it's a TV show, but it's also real. "What myself, Paul, Dr Tara do, we are not scripted, our skill sets are something we very much practice on the outside as well as within the agency construct. "And for Christine it was very brave that she wanted to dip her toe back into the world of dating and throughout the process of us getting to know her, she realised that perhaps this actually wasn't quite the right time for her to be doing that and took a great deal of confidence and bravery inside to recognise and actually now is not the right time." Anna said that viewers will get to see a different side to Christine and revealed the mum-of-three did in fact go on dates during her short stint on the show. "Christine is a fascinating woman and I think viewers are going to really empathise with everything she brings to us and the show and the Dating Agency," Anna continued. "And Christine for the short amount of time she was with us, she wanted to date and date she did." Inside the Celebs Go Dating house with Anna Williamson and Dr. Tara ahead of the new series CGD EXIT The Sun revealed that Christine decided to quit the show in a surprise move. In a statement, Christine said: 'I joined Celebs Go Dating with great intentions but have realised that dating on a public platform and the attention that brings is just too soon for me. 'They've said the door is always open for me, which I'm so grateful for, but for now I'm returning home to my family.' Christine had spent a few days in Ibiza filming for the show with stars including Kerry Katona and Olivia Hawkins. Pals told The Sun she was looking forward to moving on and potentially finding love again. At the time, a source said: 'Christine has been through so much but she's ready to move on. 'When she signed up to Celebs Go Dating the production team were told she was open to dating women as well as men. 'Taking part in a TV show about finding love is all new for Christine but she's just having fun and is enjoying herself.' However those close to Christine said since she flew to Ibiza, she had struggled with putting her private life on camera. A friend added: 'Christine has decided that some things are important for her to keep private. 'She thought signing up to Celebs Go Dating was a good idea at first but now she feels overwhelmed by the attention. 'Christine has stepped away from the show and they have been really supportive of her and her decision. 'Her wellbeing was their main priority and Christine is looking forward to getting home to be with her family.' Christine and her ex, comedian Paddy McGuiness announced they had separated in 2022 after 15 years together. The couple first met through a mutual friend in 2007, when she was 19 and he was 33. Two years later, he popped the question and they married in 2011 at Merseyside's Thornton Manor Estate. The TV personality delighted her former co-stars when she made a surprise return to the series' finale in June. A insider told The Sun: "Christine's return was kept top secret from everyone, so they were all so excited to see her come back. "The cast were really sad when she quit the show, even though they totally supported and understood her reasons, so it was great to see her come back. "She started the journey with them all, so it was the perfect end that she got to finish the series with them too. "Christine may not have found love on the show, but she seemed really happy and in a great place. "Leaving the show was the right decision for her but she loved being back in the mix without the pressure of having to actually date on camera."
