Celebrity Big Brother host shares exciting announcement away from ITV show

Celebrity Big Brother personality Will Best is set to spice up your mornings as he joins the Hits Radio Breakfast squad.

Making a special guest appearance on the Hits Radio Breakfast show with Fleur East and James Barr this Friday (April 11), Best broke the news of his latest gig. Fans can tune in from Monday, April 28th, to catch Will rise and shine with co-hosts Fleur and comedian James Barr from 6am.

In a buzzing crossover, Fleur is scheduled to pop up on Big Brother: Late and Live tonight, with Will hinting at a cheeky collaboration live on the airwaves.

Commenting on his fresh endeavor, Will quipped: "I've been wanting to join the 5am club for a while - all the influencers are doing it aren't they!"

He added, "I think I'll cope alright with the early mornings... I'll just go to bed. Honestly, I'm unbelievably excited and the thought that I get to hang out with Fleur and James every day just fills my heart with joy."

The air at Hits Radio has been crackling with excitement following the national roll-out of their sister outlets, Hits Radio 90s and Hits Radio 00s, reports OK!.

Not only is the station buzzed about its growth, but the entire Hits Radio network is also throwing its support behind Cash for Kids, the charitable wing of Bauer Media Audio. The team is taking strides in the Walk Around the World challenge to garner funds for the upcoming Cash for Kids Day on May 1st.

Earlier this week, TV audiences commended Will for his behaviour in safeguarding his Celebrity Big Brother co-host AJ Odudu during an uneasy live moment involving Mickey Rourke's entry into the house.

Mickey seemingly became fond of host AJ and her attire during the premiere, making a gesture that brought her closer to him. However, Will stepped in, intervening to distance him as AJ urged Mickey towards the house.

The discomfiting on-screen encounter led one spectator to Twitter, expressing: "It was so uncomfortable watching him harass AJ on live TV. I liked how Will Best protected AJ throughout that segment."

Echoing the sentiment, another viewer lauded their presenting dynamic, noting: "Not the biggest fan of AJ and Wills presenting sometimes, but they handled him well! And Will holding her hand and giving her a hug after showed what a gent he is."

Celebrity Big Brother airs Sunday to Friday at 9pm on ITV1
