In an exclusive interview, she said: "I think everyone is going to absolutely love her. She is fun and games. She's going to be amazing. "She is going to be the person that brings a little bit of light when there are tough times there. I can't wait to see her in the challenges because obviously she's so competitive.

Hayley, who is the daughter of Scotland legend Gordon McQueen, spends a lot of time in Middlesbrough, which is just a short drive from Jill's hometown of Sunderland. She said: "I love the fact she's from the north east. She's still very humble and just a big kid really, isn't she."
