The 41-year-old broke up with her fiancé Tom Richards, was made homeless, admitted to a cocaine relapse and was reportedly dropped from Hollyoaks – and all in the last 12 months.

But former EastEnders star Danniella has allegedly signed up for the next series of Celebrity Big Brother for the sweet sum of £200,000.

A source told The Sun: “Drama seems to follow Danniella around so bosses think she will be a great housemate.

“The deal is also a massive financial boost after her recent spell of bad luck.”

Danniella – who shot to fame as Sam Mitchell in the BBC One soap – recently dismissed claims she was axed from Channel 4’s Hollyoaks.

Earlier this year cage fighter Tom, 25, was arrested after he reportedly assaulted mum-of-two Danniella, and she claimed she didn’t want to be in Liverpool, where Hollyoaks is filmed, with him nearby.

Her spokesperson said: “Danniella left Hollyoaks due to the fact her ex was going to be staying in Liverpool at the same time, as he has a training camp there. She feared for her safety.”

This week Danniella suggested she’d received some exciting news with a cryptic Twitter post.

She wrote: “That feeling you get when you put the phone down and your belly flip flops… love that [sic].”
