She was the only non-celebrity to win Celebrity Big Brother and Chantelle Houghton's famous victory on the show is being shot back into the spotlight thanks to the return of Big Brother.
It was back in 2006, Chantelle, dubbed 'the Paris Hilton of Essex', appeared on the show and managed to convince housemates like Pete Burns. Jodie Marsh and Michael Barrymore that she was in fact a celebrity, going along with Big Brother 's plan and telling them she was a member of little known girl group Kandyfloss.
She even performed their apparent single I Want it All in a scene that will air on the second episode of Big Brother's Best Shows Ever on Monday night on E4.
Chantelle, then 22, went onto beat Michael in the final but was best known for growing close to Ordinary Boys singer Preston in the house, even though he had a girlfriend on the outside.
Chantelle and Preston married months later but separated within a year of saying 'I do.' However, in an interview last year, Chantelle, now 36, revealed that she is back in touch with him and the pair are friends.
After winning Celebrity Big Brother, Chantelle released autobiography Living The Dream, which was made the butt of jokes on quiz show Never Mind The Buzzcocks, which led to Preston storming off set.
Chantelle went back into the Big Brother house in 2010 in UItimate Big Brother, which was won by Brian Dowling and saw her have an awkward reunion with her ex-husband.
She has a daughter with Celebrity Big Brother winner and Katie Price's ex Alex Reid and also dated TV presenter Rav Wilding in 2011, with the pair splitting after pictures emerged of them having a heated row in a park.
She is now engaged to boyfriend Michael Strutt, who she has been friends with for nine years. On her Instagram bio Chantelle still lists herself as a reality TV star.
