Now that both Love Island and Celebrity Big Brother are over for the year, the next reality TV show we planned to let take over our lives was E4's Celebs Go Dating, but there's one major shake-up to the show that viewers will not have been expecting.

According to new reports, love guru Lady Nadia Essex has apparently been AXED by show bosses. Nadia, who has appeared on the show since it first started in 2016, has been suspended from the show after she was 'caught' setting up fake social media accounts to troll other users.

A source told The Sun, "Bosses have made the decision following an investigation into Nadia’s use of social media. She was found to be setting up fake accounts to troll certain users – which is something that won’t be tolerated."

Nadia is expected to only appear on the first few episodes of the new series, which is currently being filmed as we speak.

After Nadia's co-star Eden Blackman quit the show last series, bosses at E4 are reportedly now on the hunt to find a suitable replacement for Nadia. (Please let it be Tom Read Wilson 🙏).

Meanwhile, earlier this year the line-up for the fourth series of the show was announced, with fans getting VERY excited about the new series.

As well as Love Island's Eyal Booker and Olivia Attwood, TOWIE star Vas J Morgan and Gogglebox's Amy Tapper have all signed up.

Check out the full Celebs Go Dating line-up below:
