However it was later denied and currently 11 straight singletons have entered the house.

Bisexual contestants including Sophie Gradon and Katie Salmon have both previously featured on the show, however they weren't allowed to officially couple up with members of the same sex.

Instead they were told to pair up with a boy in a bid to win the £50,000 cash prize.

Despite this, the pair were seen hooking up on air regardless of their official partners.
