2023 has been a huge year for reality telly. Not only did we have two seasons of UK Love Island, but it's also the year Big Brother FINALLY returned to our screens via ITV – our reality TV overlord – after five miserable years.

The show's return has also seemingly reawakened a former handful of Big Brother legends from their celebrity slumber; plenty of them have started popping up on our radar again after years and years away from the spotlight.

One of those housemates is Big Brother 10 winner Sophie Reade.

In fact, she's returned so hard that she took to her TikTok to declare that "the b*tch is back" – which is a little bit funny because she legally changed her name to 'Dogface' that one iconic time in reality telly history.

Fourteen years on from her phenomenal Big Brother win in 2009, Sophie doesn't appear to have aged a day and if this TikTok implies any kind of comeback, allow us to be the first publication to officially say: WE ARE HERE FOR IT and WELCOME BACK.
