Former Big Brother winner Brian Dowling has insisted Edele Lynch can win the show.
The B*Witched star needs to remember not to take nominations too seriously or get into feuds on the Channel 5 show.
And Brian – who used to host Celebrity Big Brother – said her Irish-ness will be a massive advantage even just a week into the programme.
“I did watch a bit of the launch show alright and Irish people generally do well on the programme,” he added.

“We have the kind of personalities that tend to come across positively. The best advice I’d give her is probably to try and avoid all the drama that goes on in the house.
“And also not to take the nominations too seriously or fight over stupid things like who drank all the milk. You have to remember that it’s all just a game at the end of the day.”
And Brian, who has a new TV3 gameshow coming up, told the Herald that being on the Big Reunion will also help her case.

He said: “Edele’s a nice girl and the British public would know her already from being in B*Witched and the show she did two years ago, the Big Reunion.”
It emerged over the weekend that Edele split from her husband before going on the show, which has caused her some stress in the house.
Breaking down, she said: “I have some really serious stuff going on in my life right now, and it’s not all just about having a laugh.
“It hurts. I guess when you get married you don’t expect it to go anywhere else.”
