Former Gogglebox star Stephen Lustig-Webb reportedly joins Celebs Go Dating, weeks after announcing his divorce.

Former Gogglebox star Stephen Lustig-Webb has reportedly joined the lineup for the new series of Celebs Go Dating.

The 52-year-old was an OG participant on the Channel 4 show but quit, alongside husband Daniel Lustig-Webb, late last year in order to pursue other opportunities - including taking part in ITV's Dancing On Ice, although he ultimately had to withdraw through injury.

Just several weeks ago Stephen and Daniel shocked fans with the announcement that they were to divorce but remain "forever friends", and according to The Sun, Stephen is already to get back on the dating scene.

A source told the newspaper: "Stephen is set to sign up for Celebs Go Dating after successful advanced talks with E4 producers.

"Bosses were really keen to get him as soon as they heard he and Daniel had split as they know viewers will invest in his path to finding love again, and he's already a big favourite with Channel 4 viewers after years on Gogglebox.

"Stephen is also really keen to have some fun again after a difficult few months, and he's also raring to get back on TV after having to step down from Dancing on Ice due to injury.

"He was gutted when that fell through, but he feels excited to take on a new project. He is realistic that he may not find Mr Right but he is up for a laugh on the dating scene."

Also thought to be in the lineup for the new series - due to air on E4 in the autumn - are Made In Chelsea's Tristan Phipps, MAFS UK's Ella Morgan and Love Island's Finn Tapp.
