Celebrity Big Brother bosses have reportedly been in talks with the Duchess of Sussex's half-sister Samantha Markle after Stormy Daniels pulled out of the show just hours before the launch.

It's claimed CBB producers have held 'tentative discussions' with Meghan's half-sister Samantha and are keen to get her in to the house as this series' big name star following Stormy's decision to drop out.

“Producers have been in touch with Samantha, but swore her to secrecy," a source told The Sun.

However, they then added: “She has been telling people she won’t be going into the Big Brother house – and has tweeted as much."

The source continued to explain discussions are still going on, and there is a possibility Samantha could enter the Big Brother house.

“Big Brother bosses know that her opinions on Meghan would be as big a storyline as Stormy’s thoughts on Donald Trump. It would be a huge ratings winner," the source explained.

In July, Samantha 'refused to deny' claims she would be entering the house and tackled allegations that she was 'cashing in' on her sister's new royal status.

This comes after Storm Daniels dropped out of the show just hours before she was supposed to enter the house.

Despite already allegedly scoring a whopping £750,000 for her appearance in the show, Stormy - who was famously paid off by Donald Trump's lawyers before the 2016 presidential election - reportedly demanded a further £100,000.

"Stormy landed in London and was taken to the Village hotel in Elstree where the celebs are put up," sources told The Sun.

“From the outset it was clear something was wrong and once she sat down with the producers all hell broke loose. They just didn't get on."
