Is Vicky Pattison Going On Strictly Come Dancing? All The Rumours So Far
Summer might have only just arrived, but Strictly fans already have their minds set on who could be competing for the glitter ball trophy this autumn. One rumoured contestant thought to be joining the line-up is Vicky Pattison. The TV personality is thought to have attracted the attention of the show's producers when she supported Pete Wicks from the audience during last year's series. The bosses were said to be so impressed that they now want to make her part of the next line-up. A source told The Sun: 'Vicky loved watching Pete on the series and was in awe of the detail that goes into every performance. She has great energy and will no doubt be a hit with the viewers. Vicky's done plenty of reality shows but is ready to be out of her comfort zone on the dance floor.' Vicky originally rose to fame on Geordie Shore, where she became well loved for her outspoken personality and dramatic romances. In 2015, Vicky took part in I'm A Celebrity, where she was crowned Queen Of The Jungle. In a 2022 interview with The Metro, Vicky opened up about how her time in the jungle changed her. 'My time spent in I'm A Celeb was completely pivotal for me, not just professionally, I'll never be able to express how grateful I am,' she told the outlet. 'Personally, it allowed us to see the person I could be, you know? When everyone tells you you're a certain thing – drunk, loud, aggressive – you hear these things enough to start to believe them and it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. I was becoming a very lost, sad caricature. It was really nice and I'll always be grateful and always be a little bit jealous when everyone else gets to go.' Alongside her TV credentials, Vicky has been outspoken about her battle with [Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder {href=' }), a debilitating condition which causes severe emotional and physical symptoms in the weeks leading up to a period. This isn't the first time that Vicky has been linked to Strictly. In an interview with The Sun last year, Vicky addressed the possibility of her taking part in the show. 'Like when I found out Pete was doing it, the first thing I did was ring him and see if he was OK. Because me and him are more like stand in the corner, drink and have a laugh than you know, centre of the dance floor people. And he was saying he was really nervous, and I think that's how I'll be,' she said. She continued 'But sometimes, I just like my comfort zone and especially now I'm about to get married and everything like, I don't know, I don't know if I ever would. I don't know if it's for me, but like never say never.' As for the other Strictly line up rumours, it's also been reported that bosses are eyeing up Queen Camilla's son Tom Parker Bowles, Georgia Toffolo and The Apprentice's Thomas Skinner for the show. Another rumoured star set to be taking part is Stacey Solomon, who hasn't ruled out the glitter ball before. She previously told the Metro: 'I would never say never but I am a terrible dancer, an absolutely terrible dancer! I don't know why but I have no rhythm when it comes to movement. I have rhythm with singing or listening to music but when it comes to moving my feet I am left-footed, I have two left feet!,' adding 'But I am obsessed with it, I'm obsessed with the costumes. And also I would love to learn a new skill like that. I love learning anything to be honest.'

Boris Becker's ex-wife Lilly stuns in a bikini and quirky leather belt as she enjoys luxurious holiday to Turkey
Boris Becker 's ex-wife Lilly looked stunning as she gave an insight into her luxurious holiday to Turkey on Monday. The model, 48, wore a metallic bikini which she paired with a chunky leather belt for a quirky look. She layered over a cream shawl and accessorised her outfit with a straw hat and sunglasses. Sharing a series of photos to Instagram, Lilly enjoyed a lavish dinner with friends before going for a stroll on the beach. She captioned the update: 'Feeling grateful, blessed, and surrounded by beauty — in the most stunning surroundings. With incredible women and unforgettable vibes.' Lilly won the German version of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! in February after stealing the hearts of the nation. Boris endured a bitter divorce battle with Dutch model Lilly, who confirmed she had signed up for the show in January. The couple were married for nine years and welcomed son Amadeus together, before confirming their split in May 2018. Boris had been declared bankrupt the year before, owing creditors £50million, over an unpaid loan of more than £3million on his estate on the Spanish island of Mallorca. The six-time grand slam champion was jailed in April 2022 for hiding £2.5million of assets and loans to avoid paying his debts. Lilly will now enjoy her €100,000 prize money after beating fellow finalists Alessia Herren, 23, and Pierre Sanoussi-Bliss, 62. Winning the Queen of the Jungle title, the model broke down crying and said: 'Amadeus, we did it! I won!' Lilly and Boris' son celebrated his 15th birthday on the day of his mother's victory. The former tennis star served eight months of a two-and-a-half-year sentence before being extradited to Germany in time for Christmas 2022. Boris went on to tie the knot with Lilian de Carvalho Monteiro, 33, in Italy last year - marking his third time up the aisle. He had previously been married to first wife, Barbara Feltus, from 1993 until 2001, after Boris admitted to having an affair while she was pregnant with their second child. His two sons with Barbara, Noah, 30, and Elias, 25, were in attendance at his wedding to Liliam, however conspicuous by their absence were Amadeus and his daughter Anna Ermakova, 24. Model Anna was born after Boris had a one-night stand with Russian waitress Angela in the broom cupboard of London's Nobu while first wife Barbara was in labour with Elias. Lilly later said Boris had purposely not invited Amadeus to his wedding, telling German magazine Bunte: 'When I asked Amadeus about it, he was surprised. He didn't know anything about it. 'Of course he's wondering why he wasn't invited and that his father didn't tell him anything about it.' While she insisted that she wished her ex the best, she added that 'behaving that way towards our son really is the last straw. Who doesn't want him to come?'
