Joined by Kate Middleton's uncle Gary Goldsmith, 58, Fern Britton, 66, David Potts, 30 and Levi Roots, 65, Lauren will be hoping she can do enough to be kept in the public's favour and take the CBB crown for herself.

The Simons' often appeared on The Real Housewives of Cheshire together and the pair weren't shy in discussing their marital issues on camera.

Things eventually came to a head in 2018 and the two went through a complicated divorce which initially saw Paul give Lauren a £3million lump sum. However this wasn't the end of their financial arguments as Paul won an appeal against the order to send Lauren £3million.

The Real Housewife was eventually allowed to remain in their £1.8million mansion in Altrincham if she dropped her filings to get more money from Paul.
