CELEBRITY Big Brother bosses have offered an “enormous fee” for Real Housewives of Cheshire star Ester Dee to appear on the Channel 5 show.

Sources say producers had initially offered a place to co-star Lauren Simon but apparently made a beeline for Ester when she burst on to screens last month.

A source said: “It’s put all the other housewives’ noses out of joint cause Ester has only been on the show for two episodes and already she’s the favourite.

“Ester has been offered an enormous fee and she certainly won’t be able to say no.

“She’ll make TV gold on Celebrity Big Brother and it will certainly cause a few fights on set.”

Ester, 32, said she was the fiancée of millionaire property developer Rob Lloyd—when in fact her lifestyle is being bankrolled by millionaire John Temple, who she wed in 2015.

John told the Sun on Sunday: “How could the programme makers have let her do this? The whole thing is sick.

“Ester is my wife, she doesn’t live in Cheshire, and there is no Cheshire mansion. She splits her time between my apartment in Leamington Spa and one I bought for her in Wales. The Rolls-Royce she drives is mine.”

The former au pair claimed to be engaged to Lloyd, who appeared on Channel 4’s The Secret Millionaire in 2009, and living with him in a *Georgian mansion.

She was forced to confess to show bosses it was John who was footing her bills after staff overheard her asking him to buy her ring.

If Ester accepts the Big Brother offer she will join other rumoured contestants including Lotto winner Jane Park, reality stars Charlotte Crosby and Bear as well as Page 3 girl Rhian Sugden in the house.
