Published 16th Feb 2016

Believe it or not MTV’s Geordie Shore has been on our screens for the last five years and now season 12 is about to kick off with a fresh set of new faces (and a returning one).

26-year-old Chantelle Connelly and 21-year Marty McKenna, who starred in the last series of Ex on the Beach, have been unveiled as the new cast members via Geordie Shore’s official Instagram account.

Joining popular cast members Scotty T, Charlotte Crosby and Gary Beadle the newbies are set to unleash havoc in the house and onto the streets of Newcastle when the new series kicks off in March.

Gaz Beadle posted this image to his Instagram account with the caption "#gshorecrew."

Also joining the group will be Marnie Simpson, who originally left the show in series 11 to focus on her relationship with former TOWIE star Ricky Rayment, which has now ended.

Holly Hagan, Chloe Ferry, Nathan Henry and Aaron Chalmers are also set to appear on the new series after Kyle Christie announced he wouldn’t return late last year.

Chantelle and Marty will be hoping they turn out to be as popular as Vicky Pattison who went on to find stardom after leaving the show.

The cast have already started filming for the new series which will air on Tuesday 15th March at 10pm on MTV.
