It’s only been a little over three months since the latest series of Celebrity Big Brother came to an end when Corrie legend Jack P. Shepherd was crowned the winner, but the cast have been very busy since then.

Not only have Chris Hughes and JoJo Siwa gone properly official, but Jack has tied the knot to his long-term other half Hanni Treweek and Donna Preston has signed up to Celebs Go Dating to find a romance of her own.

There’s even been rumours that Chris could pop the question to JoJo, so when we caught up with Donna as she joined the Celebrity Dating Agency we had to get her thoughts on her former housemates’ love story.

When asked if she’s been inspired to find love by Chris and JoJo, Donna replied (with only a little hint of sarcasm), ‘Always, absolutely. Of course.’

As for a potential wedding between the two, Donna told us, ‘I’ll be the bridesmaid. I’ve just invited myself.

‘No, I will. I will get an invite. I’m excited for the dress expense and the performances. JoJo and I will do a little song.’

As for why she decided to sign up for Celebs Go Dating, Donna said, ‘I always like to keep busy so, for me, it was nice to another job and put my life in someone else’s hands for a little bit. And also, you know, I’m getting paid today, fantastic.’

She added, ‘For me, [I needed] just a little bit of guidance from the agents and I felt like I definitely did get that, which was great. If I get a relationship from it or a significant other, that would be great as well.
