After Nadia Essex was axed from the show for setting up fake Twitter profiles to troll her former co-star Eden Blackman, it's not yet clear who will replace her, if anybody.
Nadia later admitted the accusations, and she officially resigned from the show on the 14th September, quoting a statement from Jameela Jamil, she posted on Twitter, 'I just cannot stay silent any more. I cant. I don't card if I'm going down - I'm going down in flames. I'm fine not to work in this industry. But I'm not fine to not say something.'
Dating expert Paul Carrick Brunson was announced as Eden's replacement earlier this year, with the BRILLIANT Tom Read Wilson also returning to his role as receptionist.
Despite Nadia's exit from the show, she is expected to appear on the first few episodes, due to these having already being filmed before the drama.
