Huge radio DJ signs up for Celebrity Bake Off alongside Molly-Mae Hague and JoJo Siwa
RADIO fans are in for a treat as one huge star from the airways has signed up for the celebrity version of The Great British Bake Off.
The Sun can exclusively reveal that the famous DJ is preparing to don an apron and try her luck in the iconic tent.
Edith Bowman is the latest star to sign up to the Channel 4 show and will be whipping up a storm alongside some big names.
Scots-born Edith, 51, will be joined in the Celebrity GBBO tent by stars including Molly-Mae Hague and JoJo Siwa.
Sources believe mum-of-two Edith, who hosts BBC3 Unwind, will do well in the tent because she’s used to “juggling” while live on air.
A TV insider said: “Edith always goes down a treat with viewers.
“She’s warm, enthusiastic and a lot of fun, and show bosses are delighted to have her on board.
“Her radio day job sees her juggling lots of different things all at once so it should stand her in good stead when she films her episode in the tent.”
News of Edith’s signing comes just days after The Sun revealed Molly-Mae Hague will be taking part in the next celebrity version of Bake Off.
The former Love Island star turned businesswoman will be one of the biggest stars taking part in the Stand Up To Cancer spin-off of the cookery contest.
Other Love Islanders who’ve been on the Bake Off spin off have included former contestant Ovie Soko and former host Laura Whitmore.
Meanwhile, another famous face who will be whipping up a storm is JoJo Siwa.
Fresh from her Celebrity Big Brother stint, the 22-year-old Dance Moms star has returned to the UK to secretly film the C4 show.
Babatunde Aleshe will also be bringing the laughs to the tent.
The 38-year-old Celebrity Gogglebox favourite has a good relationship with Channel 4 bosses and it is understood they are thrilled to sign him.

The celebrity version of Bake Off, whose participants have yet to be confirmed by C4, is being made just before filming of the ‘civilian’ version gets underway.

Channel 4 star Prue Leith has stepped back from all GBBO specials, with cooking expert and pal Caroline Waldegrave filling her shoes.
The Stand Up To Cancer celeb special is due to air this summer.
