Tiffany Pollard is set to make a return to Celebrity Big Brother – nine years after her iconic stint.
According to reports, the US reality star is set for a spectacular comeback after a number of infamous moments left her a legend in CBB folklore.
It’s claimed the American reality TV star is to feature on the show’s spin-off, Late & Live. It comes nine years after her stunning reaction to news of a death inside the lavish property. At the time, she broke down, thinking fellow contestant David Gest had died. In reality, she was being told of the death of David Bowie, who was the ex-husband of her housemate at the time, Angie Bowie.
During her time on the show, Tiffany also clashed with fellow housemate, Gemma Collins – with the pair arguing over a pair of shoes the former The Only Way Is Essex star had gifted her during their stay.

A source told The Sun: “There are no fans as passionate as those that love Big Brother and this booking’s one for them. Tiffany is a solid gold show legend and going to be brilliant on the Late & Live panel.”
She is set to join Will Best and AJ Odudu, who will once again return at hosts of the ITV2 spin-off show. The new series gets under way on April 7.
Celebrities reportedly set to enter the abode this year include former Love Island and horse racing expert Chris Hughes. Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd is also said to be ready for the contest.
Other names speculated include RuPaul’s Drag Race UK winner Danny Beard, 32 – whose real name is Daniel Curtis. The drag artist has previously appeared on several ITV shows, including having competed on both Britain’s Got Talent and Karaoke Club: Drag Edition.
Former Miss England Georgia Horsley has also been linked with the show. She has been catapulted into the spotlight in recent weeks following the scandal surrounding her husband Danny Jones after he was caught kissing Maura Higgins at a BRIT Awards afterparty last month.
It was hoped by Big Brother bosses she may join and would spill all, but the rumours were squashed. The Mirror recently confirmed she has turned down the huge offer as the mum-of-one “doesn’t want to air her personal life in public”. Instead, she’s said to be focusing on her family, particularly their son Cooper, seven.
An insider said: “She’s heartbroken, but she’s dealing with it in her own way, away from the cameras and headlines. She’s never been interested in the spotlight when it comes to personal matters.
“Georgia believes some things should be handled behind closed doors, especially for Copper’s sake. Right now, she’s just trying to process everything without outside noise influencing her decisions.”
This year’s Big Brother house has been moved to a “brand-new secret location”. The undisclosed location will host “a new batch of VIPs” ready to embark on the original social experiment, according to the show.
Last year, David Potts was crowned victorious, while there was plenty of drama as the show made its huge revival to ITV1.
