What have fans of the show said?
Taking to social media following the line-up announcement, eagle-eyed viewers were quick to spot that it wouldn’t be the first stab at finding love on the show for one celebrity.
Kerry Katona appeared on the sixth series of the E4 reality show back in 2019.
It comes after the 44-year-old announced a shock split from her fiancé of four years, Ryan Mahoney, late last year.
But fans of the show aren’t convinced it will be second time lucky for Kerry to find love.
One X (formerly Twitter) user said: “Not again!”
While others added: “Why is Kerry doing the show AGAIN?!”
“I thought Kerry was engaged, I didn’t know they’d split up,” another said.
“Kerry – she’s been on before! You must be joking!”
However, one celebrity that viewers say they are looking forward to seeing the most is S Club 7 star Jon Lee, who revealed he was gay in 2010.
One fan on Facebook said: “I would date him!”
While others spoke of their love for him during his pop star years.
“I had a huge crush on Jon growing up,” one person said.

While another added: “Love Jon, I already know he’ll be my favourite as he was my favourite member of S Club!”
Elsewhere on social media, fans are also keen to see the arrival of The Chase star Mark Labbett.
“Bring on The Beast!” one Facebook user commented.
While another said: “Can’t wait to see how The Beast acts on the show.”
Celebs Go Dating will return to E4 and Channel 4 On Demand later this year.
