A new series of Big Brother is coming this year and words cannot express how much our reality TV loving hearts are excited for the the show's highly anticipated return.
Every time the words Big Brother are spoken, we are suddenly transported back to 2000 and we can hear Davina McCall announcing, "You are live on Channel 4, please do not swear."
GOOSEBUMPS.
As we wait on tenterhooks for just a nugget of info surrounding the reboot of the world’s most iconic reality show, a Big Brother reunion has warmed out cold, cold hearts.
Davina McCall shared a selfie on her Instagram story of her with Big Brother 2 winner and former host of the show, Brian Dowling and his husband Arthur.
Although now they are clearly chums, Davina and Brian had a rather public fall out back in 2020 and everybody was under the impression that there was bad blood between the two presenters.
However, Davina proved they'd moved on when she added the caption, “Look who I bumped into!!! @bprdowling and Arthur ❤️❤️❤️."
As if the exclamation marks and heart emojis weren’t enough, the trio are all smiles in the picture. Oh, we love it when warring celebs become friends again.
Davina was of course the first EVER Big Brother presenter back at the start of millennium when the controversial show first hit our screens and truly changed the world of TV forever.
The program first aired on Channel 4 for an entire decade and Davina was a key component of the series until it transferred over to Channel 5 in 2010 and she declined the offer to return as the host.
The role was instead handed over to Brian Dowling before Emma Willis took over a few years later.
According to The Sun, the feud between Davina and Brian erupted when fans asked where Brian was during the one off Best Ever Series version of the show and Davina claimed that Brian WAS invited but did not attend.
Brain declared it was not Davina's place to comment on such matters and the tiff escalated into a public slanging match between the two presenters.
Three years have passed since the fall out and it looks as though Brian and Davina have buried the hatchet.
Do we sense a Big Brother reunion ON Big Brother? Just imagine.
