Chris Hughes has reportedly signed up to bare all on ITV’s The Real Full Monty, which is set to return for a new series later this year.

Following the release of his BBC Three documentary Me, My Brother and Our Balls, the Love Island star is apparently one of the famous faces getting their kit off to raise awareness of male cancers.

This year’s The Real Full Monty is also said to feature its oldest ever contestant as 72-year-old Grand National winning jockey Bob Champion has reportedly signed up after battling cancer twice.

It’s thought that the celebrity line-up is completed by Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas, Diversity’s Perri Kiely, former Dancing On Ice champion Jake Quickenden and Welsh rugby star Gareth Thomas.

A TV insider explained, “This year’s Real Full Monty line up is really special as the cause is really close to the stars’ hearts.

“Chris’ younger brother Ben was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2018, while Bob had two cancer bouts at the height of his racing career.”

This comes after Chris, who is thought to be dating underwear model Mary Bedford, opened up about wanting “lots of babies” with Little Mix’s Jesy Nelson before their split.

In a scene from his documentary, Chris visits a doctor who tells him his sperm count has improved, after fearing he was infertile, before calling his then-girlfriend to share the good news.

“Oh Jessica, I have a lot of sperm and they're very, very active,” he says. “I'm really happy."

“Yay! So we can have lots of babies?" asks Jesy, to which Chris replies, "I think we can probably have three or four.”
