We're super excited for the return of Celebs Go Dating later this year, mainly because it means Olivia Attwood will be back on our screens.

The sassy Love Island star was one of the first celebs to join The Celebrity Dating Agency and will attempt to find love with help from dating experts Nadia Essex and Paul Brunson, but that’s not the only perk as Liv has reportedly bagged herself a whopping £200,000 for taking part in the show.

"It's a win win situation for Olivia. She's getting paid big money to find love,” a source told The Sun.

They added: “Producers are delighted she’s signed up as they thought she was brilliant on Love Island and she’s really impressed them with her TV appearances since.”

The line-up for Celebs Go Dating was originally revealed last month and includes Olivia’s fellow Love Islander Eyal Booker, Towie stars Chloe Sims and Vas J Morgan, Made in Chelsea’s Alik Alfus, Sugababe Mutya Buena and Diversity dance star Sam Craske.

Mark-Ryan bails on Callum for a 'spa day'

Viewers were rightly outraged when one time apprentice reject Mark-dash-Ryan Parsons walked out on his second date with Barbadian Callum (who was, let's face it, waaaaay out of his league) claiming he'd had a spa day booked that he'd forgotten about. The real cincher was the wax sealed, handwritten note he'd left on his departure explaining he didn't want to see him again. Too-posh-to-function Mark Ryan caused dating coaches Anna and Paul a shed load of jip with his penchant for talking down to and insulting his dates.

Marty McKenna's agency debut

It's 2022, so you'd think that media-trained telly types would know not to go onto national TV and refer to half the population as "birds" and "pigs". Not so for forgettable Geordie Shore star Marty, who within seconds of sitting down in the agency's newly revamped offices had branded women both and made the delusional claim that he'd "never had any complaints".

The internet was agog when they announced their engagement, but it turned out to all be a subtle nod to sophisticated humour with Wayne admitting they "just wanted to see what people would say".
