Patsy Palmer has been revealed as one of the contestants on this year’s star-studded leaked Celebrity Big Brother line up.
On Monday April 7, hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best will return to front the showbiz edition of ITV’s beloved social experiment.
Rumours have been swirling around who exactly will be entering the famous compound, but it has now been revealed that the likes of Trisha Goddard, American actor Mickey Rourke and internet sensation JoJo Siwa will be among the names in the Big Brother house.
Entering alongside them will be EastEnders legend Patsy, who is known for playing feisty Bianca Jackson on and off in the soap since 1993.
Patsy, 52, has also appeared on Dancing On Ice and Strictly, and has been a regular on our screens since 1993, when Bianca was first introduced to Albert Square.
It remains to be seen if she will be anything like her fiery alter-ego in the house, but many viewers will remember her infamous Good Morning Britain interview.

After being invited on ITV’s breakfast show to speak with Ben Shephard and Susanna Reid, the former EastEnders actress stormed out in dramatic fashion.
Branded along the bottom of the screen said the words ‘addict to wellness guru’, which Patsy took great offense to.
While holding her dog in one hand, she said that she doesn’t want to do the interview anymore and shut down her laptop, to the dismay of the Good Morning Britain presenters.
One of the contestants on the show who will also certainly make some headlines will be Jojo Siwa.
In 2023, the star’s actions were deemed insensitive and disrespectful when she pretended to be pregnant.
Also making his way into the house will be Hollywood icon Mickey, 72, whose career in showbiz spans over four decades.
He is believed to have negotiated himself a seven-figure fee for his appearance.
