WHAT HAS BEEN SAID
A source told the tabloid: "ITV have approached Annie's team about her taking part in the upcoming series of Celebrity Big Brother. Coleen Rooney’s success on I'm A Celebrity proved how much interest there is for WAGs and they would love to replicate her success on CBB. Annie's team were told to name their price, they'd do anything to get her on board. Because Annie has never spoken it would be an absolute coup to get her in the house. The amount of headlines it would generate for the show would be publicity gold too, and it would give Annie a chance to speak in a completely natural way without it being formal like an interview. The offer is on the table and it's Annie's for the taking if she wants it."

WHAT NEXT
In the meantime, Walker and Kilner look set to try and repair their damaged relationship away from the Premier League spotlight.
