Former Love Island star Paul Danan could be making a big comeback with an appearance on Celebrity Big Brother.

The former Hollyoaks actor, also known as Dangerous Danan, could spice up Channel 5’s famous reality television house with his cheeky antics if he takes part in the show which starts on 1 August.

TV producers are hoping he will make a splash as he follows in the steps of fellow former Love Islander Calum Best who appeared on the last series of CBB.

Reality star, Natalie, knows how to stay relevant. She's got a super active Instagram, with everything from twerking videos to adorable pictures of her kids. You can bet your house on Natalie going even further with social media once she's out of the house - so love her or hate her, she's going to be someone to follow for when she's free from the storm house.

Jermaine was promoting his new autobiography just before going into the CBB house, so that makes up the most of his Twitter, but his instagram is full of old pictures from his footballing days and other things he gets up to. Instagram: @jermaine7pennantTwitter: @pennant83

Nick Leeson

Nick probably has the least presence online of all the contestants. He doesn't have Snapchat or Instagram, but does tweet on occasion. He's said on his Twitter that he runs the Instagram account @therougetrader, but it doesn't exist. First things first when he gets out of the house he needs a working Instagram username...Twitter: @TheNickLeeson

Stormy Daniels

The former pornstar's social media channels are still very much X-Rated, so be warned before following them. The star was only meant to be in the Big Brother house for a week but she quit minutes before she was set to go in the CBB house. So, you'll be able to see her on social media a lot sooner than the eventual finalists (and actual contestants). Instagram: @thestormydanielsTwitter: @StormyDaniels

Chloe Ayling

The 21-year-old model had her old instagram deleted, so she's only on 36.5k followers, but that will be sure to go through the roof as soon as the series begins. She doesn't seem to have a Twitter account either, but we're sure that Chloe will be all over social media when she's out. Instagram: @chloeayling97

An insider told The Sun: “Paul’s name has been bandied around the Celebrity Big Brother team ever since Love Island returned to our screens.

“He was completely bonkers on that in 2005 so producers think he will be a great addition to CBB.

Paul Danan

“They’re hoping he’ll bring a bit of the old Love Island vibe to the house and stir up some mischief.

“It should be an explosive series with him on board.”

Paul had an on-screen romance with Lady Isabella Harvey on the original series of Love Island which aired in 2005 but he was removed for his drunken behaviour.

He returned for the second series in 2006 and was constantly at war with model Sophie Anderson.

Other names rumoured to be taking part in the upcoming series of Celebrity Big Brother include former Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding, recently departed Gogglebox star Sandra Martin, Ibiza Weekender favourite Jordan Davies and Absolutely Fabulous actress Helen Lederer.
