Noughties hitmaker and former Loose Women star Jamelia is set to make a TV return, as she’s reportedly taking part in the next series of BBC’s Celebrity MasterChef
Former Loose Women star Jamelia will be back on our TV screens as she’s reportedly signed up for Celebrity MasterChef.
The popstar, 41, who left Loose Women in 2017, is said to be excited about the BBC show, after she gave birth to her fourth daughter in October.
Since her chart topping days in the early noughties, Jamelia has gone on to have a career in TV, appearing on Strictly, Doctors and most recently Sky Kids drama Little Darlings, with fellow singer Lemar.
She has also fronted documentaries including The House That Made Me and Shame About Single Mums.
And it appears her next project will put her cooking skills to the test, as she competes against other famous faces, with judges Gregg Wallace and John Torode watching on.

A source told The Sun: “Jamelia is excited about Celebrity MasterChef and she’s more than ready to step back into the public eye after giving birth in October.
“Of course it was nerve-wracking cooking for Gregg [Wallace] and John [Torode] but Jamelia was more than up for the challenge – she had a great time.”
Jamelia was a regular panellist on Loose Women but wasn’t invited back in 2017 after a backlash against her comments about plus-sized clothes.

Last year, she opened up about the ‘traumatic’ early arrival of her fourth child after her baby’s heart rate dropped forcing her to undergo an emergency C-section.
Jamelia told how it was ‘so scary’ when her waters broke at just 32 weeks pregnant but was told ‘to hold on’ to her baby for as long as possible and spent a month under close monitoring.
But she said when checks showed her baby’s heart rate had dropped dangerously low she was rushed for an emergency C-section at Birmingham Women’s Hospital.
The former Strictly star gave birth to a baby girl but found it ‘incredibly traumatic’.
She told Hello magazine: “I’d only ever seen a C-section on the telly, and thought, ‘Oh well, at least it’s going to be straightforward and I’ll be out in five minutes.'”
She said there was nothing ‘easier’ about recovering from major surgery while looking after a newborn.
But she was thrilled to share her baby girl’s arrival with her older children 17-year-old daughter Tiani – who had tossed a coin with her big sister Teja, 21, to see who would be the birthing partner.

Her husband, who has stayed out of the spotlight, stayed at home to look after their four-year-old daughter True.
A representative for Celebrity Masterchef said the show doesn’t comment on line-up speculation. The Mirror has approached Jamelia for comment.
