Jordan North is set to feature on the upcoming season of Celebrity Big Brother.
After a decade on Radio 1, earlier this month it was announced that Jordan, 34, would be leaving the station and replaced on the drivetime show by Made In Chelsea’s Jamie Laing.
It was later reported he had been ‘blindsided’ by his exit, however, a few days later it was then also revealed Jordan would be taking over from Roman Kemp who was leaving his Capital FM breakfast show.

After appearing on the season return of Saturday Night Takeaway over the weekend, ITV has now announced they’ve also signed Jordan up for the next season of the Big Brother spin-off, which returns next week.
After a six-year hiatus, Celebrity Big Brother is back on our screens on Monday and while the famous faces who have signed up to enter the house haven’t yet been revealed, Jordan will be appearing as a Celebrity House Guest on spin-off show Late & Live, which offers fans additional exclusive content after the main show each night.
It will be hosted by AJ Odudu and Will Best and will be the place to watch the famous faces’ first live interview following their eviction.

Alongside Jordan, former Strictly Come Dancing pro Oti Mabuse and recent contestant Layton Williams will be taking turns assuming the role of the House Guest, offering commentary and debate alongside a star-studded cast of fellow celebrity guests.
His new role comes after speculation that Jordan would be one of the celebrities entering the house, rumours that went into overdrive after his former co-host Vick Hope shared a comment on his Instagram.
