Jeremy McConnell ‘desperate to appear on Celebs Go Dating’ – but there’s bad news

Jeremy McConnell is reportedly ‘desperate’ to appear on Celebs Go Dating, but there’s bad news for him.

Ex On The Beach and Celebrity Big Brother housemate Jeremy has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons over the past 12 months. He recently appeared on a celebrity version of The Jeremy Kyle show after a stint in prison.

According to The Sun newspaper, Stephanie Davis’ ex Jeremy had been hoping to make a comeback on Celebs Go Dating’s next series.

An insider claimed: “Jeremy’s now hoping to go away and then come back and do more reality TV like Celebs Go Dating.

“He thinks by going away and hiding he can come back an go on Celebs Go Dating, Ex On The Beach and other reality shows and everyone will love him.”

However a source told the Daily Mail newspaper that it’s “not likely to happen”.

“There are many other people more deserving of that show’s help right now!” a source explained. “Nadia [Essex] has been quite vocal about Jeremy’s antics in the past. And so he blocked her.

“She’s also had her say about Jeremy’s ex Steph [Davis] too. It’s not very likely that Nadia would want them anywhere near her agency!”

The latest season of the E4 celebrity dating show concluded in February and was the most watched yet.

Those on the Celeb Go Dating cast last time included Love Island’s Muggy Mike, singer Tallia Storm and her ex Seb Morris. They were joined by Hollywood’s Jonathan Lipnicki, Olympian Jade Jones, comedian London Hughes and TOWIE’s Gemma Collins.

Completing the line up were Made In Chelsea’s Sam Thompson and Ollie Locke.

Assuming there is a new series, there will be some changes after Eden Blackman left the show. He leaves Nadia as the sole dating agent, alongside receptionist Tom Read Wilson.

Celebs Go Dating airs on E4.
