A FORMER Loose Women panelist is preparing to make her TV comeback after signing up for Celebrity Masterchef.
The Sun can exclusively reveal that singer Jamelia is one of the stars of the new series which will air later this year – and she’s already slipped into one of the famous aprons.

A TV insider told us: “Jamelia is excited about Celebrity Masterchef and she is more than ready to return to the public eye after giving birth in October.
“Of course it was nerve-wracking cooking for Gregg [Wallace] and John [Torode] but Jamelia was more than up to the challenge – she had a blast.
The Sun has contacted a representative for Celebrity Masterchef for comment.
Jamelia was sensationally kicked out of the Loose Women panel in 2016 after making controversial comments about plus size women.
Last year, the Superstar hitmaker opened up about the “traumatic” birth of her fourth child.
Jamelia – who is also mum to Teja, 21, Tiani, 17, and True, four – told Hello! “It was so scary.
“I felt like I had been in labor for a month, but the main goal was to keep the baby as long as possible. I just had to hold on.
“I had only seen a caesarean section on TV and I was like, ‘Well, at least it’s going to be easy and I’ll be out in five minutes.’
“There’s this idea of ’too fancy to push’ – that it’s the easiest option. But I found it incredibly traumatic. And then you’re recovering from major surgery while caring for a newborn.
Last year, Jamelia starred alongside fellow pop star Lemar in Little Darlings, the Sky adaptation of Jacqueline Wilson’s book of the same name.
