The new series will see TV personality Kerry Katona, Love Island's Olivia Hawkins, comedian and CBB star Donna Preston, The Chase's Mark 'The Beast' Labbett, along with S Club 7 singer Jon Lee, Made In Chelsea's Sam Prince and Too Hot To Handle's Louis Russell give it their best shot at the dating agency.
And fans can begin the countdown now as the new series kicks off on August 11th at 9pm.
In a first look photo, the celebrities glammed up as they posed for a new group picture, all rearing to go.
This series kicks off with an exciting new twist, as the celebs and their dates are whisked away on an unforgettable overseas adventure to the sun-soaked island of Ibiza.
Away from the pressures of fame, family, and everyday life, they'll live together in a luxurious villa – no distractions, no excuses – as they focus on finding genuine connections.
Will sparks fly under the sun, or will paradise prove to be anything but smooth sailing?
The new series will also feature Real Housewives of Cheshire star Christine McGuinness, who quit the process early into the series.
The Sun revealed that model Christine left the E4 show after becoming "overwhelmed" with the attention on her love life and missing her family.
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 and her ex, comedian Paddy McGuiness announced they had separated in 2022 after 15 years together.
Elsewhere, fans will see if Kerry Katona's blossoming romance unfold with new hunky personal trainer boyfriend Paolo Margaglione.
A source tells The Sun: 'Kerry has bagged herself another toyboy - Paolo is 33 and Kerry is 44, but neither of them are bothered by the age-gap.
"Kerry looks better than most women half her age at the moment, and is young at heart.
"Paolo thinks she's super sexy and has told all his mates that he is the lucky one.
"Meanwhile Kerry loves the fact that she has a younger man again."
The source added: "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.'
Former Atomic Kitten star Kerry signed up to the E4 show in February following her painful break-up with fiancé Ryan Mahoney.
Kerry announced their split in November 2024 and told fans there had been "a breach of trust".
Elsewhere, viewers will find out if Olivia Hawkins and Louis Russell's relationship unfold after sparks flew on the Ibiza away trip.
The pair were caught looking intimate and enjoying a kiss while away together.
E4 viewers are also in for a treat as they will also finally get to watch Mark Labbett date again after his split from TV presenter girlfriend Hayley Palmer.
The Sun revealed that the quizzing genius fell asleep halfway through filming after a "boring" date.
A source said: "Mark was yawning a lot and drifted off briefly.
"It was a bit of an awkward moment.
"It's safe to say there wasn't much of a spark between them."
Watch Celebs Go Dating on E4, or stream on Channel4.com from Monday 11 August, 9pm.

Georgia Love's ex-husband Lee Elliott recently fuelled speculation he is dating Carrie Bickmore following their shock split. And on Tuesday, the former Bachelorette star made a telling comment on Instagram about 'good and bad times' after jetting out of Australia. Georgia, 35, posted a photo of herself relaxing in a pool during a cruise around the Caribbean and said the holiday had helped her 'forget it all for a little while'. 'Sometimes will be good, some times will be bad, some times will be really, really hard but sometimes you also get to go on a cruise around the Caribbean and forget it all for a little while,' she wrote. 'So incredibly grateful to get this experience of a lifetime with @carnivalcruiselineau. 'Follow along for the next week, if not for yourself then for me to believe this is actually real!' Georgia posted a photo of herself relaxing in a pool during a cruise around the Caribbean and said the holiday had helped her 'forget it all for a little while' It comes amid rumours Georgia's ex Lee and radio star Carrie have been spending a lot of time together at Carrie's home. According to Woman's Day, the pair were introduced by mutual friends and the relationship is 'heating up quickly'. 'They've been trying hard to keep things under wraps. But there's definitely something romantic going on. They're a beautiful couple!' a source allegedly told the magazine. Lee is newly single after splitting from his wife, Georgia, earlier this year. He and Georgia, who first met on the 2016 season of The Bachelorette, announced their separation with identical posts to Instagram in May. 'After nine wonderful years together, including four as husband and wife, [we] have made the incredibly difficult decision to lovingly part ways,' they wrote. 'Our relationship has been so special and we will always cherish the memories, love, and laughter we've shared. 'There is no drama, no bad blood. Just two people who have grown in different directions while still holding deep respect and care for each other. It comes amid rumours Georgia's ex Lee Elliott (left) and radio star Carrie Bickmore (right) have been spending a lot of time together at Carrie's home 'We remain friends and we'd really appreciate our privacy as we navigate this next stage. Thank you.' Georgia and Lee had fuelled rumours they had split for some time, after having not been seen together for four months and ditching their wedding rings. Carrie, meanwhile, has long been linked to her Carrie & Tommy radio show co-star, Tommy Little. The pair, who share undeniable chemistry on their Hit Network radio show, have been at the centre of dating rumours for years. While they have never confirmed that they are a couple, fans continue to speculate about the true nature of their relationship.

Princess Andre ‘wishes she had a happier childhood' as she opens up about Katie Price marriage split and ‘dark times'
PRINCESS Andre says she "wishes she had a happier childhood" as she opens up about mum Katie Price's marriage split. The 18-year-old is the daughter of Katie Price and her first husband Peter Andre. 6 The couple had an explosive split in 2009 after four years of marriage, when Princess was just two years old. While Princess was too young to really remember her parents together, she has traumatic memories of the breakdown of Katie's third marriage to Kieran Hayler. In her new ITV2 series - The Princess Diaries - the teen opens up about her younger years and admits: "I did have a counsellor, I do still see her every now and then. "But I don't feel like I can really talk, so I just write everything down in my notes. "I do wish, like, I could have had a more happier childhood. In the sense of like, I had so many things on my plate at a young age." She continued: "I wish sometimes that I wasn't like that and I could have actually had things in the back of my mind so young." Katie, 47, and Kieran were married from 2013 until 2018, when they split following his extramarital affair with Katie's best friend. Speaking to the camera, Princess said: "Obviously I had amazing times in my childhood, I have amazing memories from when I was younger with my mum and my dad, and I also have not so good memories of the time when my mum and Kieran split up, when I was like, 10 years old. "He was in our lives for like five years, so we got really close to him and we loved him. "He did a lot of stuff and when they split up, everything kind of went downhill. Emotional Peter Andre reveals strict rule for Princess and Junior "My mum, obviously being heartbroken, didn't deal with that in the best way, she went through a very, very dark time, which is understandable. "Which is hard for me because I was around adulty things that kids should never see and I think as well, when we needed our mum there, she wasn't emotionally able to be there because she had so much of her own problems going on." Princess added how she would regularly come home from school and "get into bed and cry" over things people were saying or asking in the school ground relating to her famous mum. She added: "I would never go and speak to my dad about it because I obviously have always grown up with 'my mum and dad don't like each other' which is fair enough, they're not going to." Princess concluded: "I could speak about my childhood and be absolutely fine, but then once something sets me off and then I actually deep everything, I'm like 'Oh my God, like no'. "And then it makes me think that I'm still not over anything or still not really healed from what's happened. "I wouldn't say I'm fully, fully recovered from it but mum is such a different person and if you put her now to back then, she's genuinely really fixed herself." 6 6 6 The Princess Diaries begins on Sunday at 9pm on ITV2 and will be available as a boxset drop on ITVX.
