Paul Gascoigne's stepdaughter Bianca has reportedly signed up for the latest series of Celebrity Big Brother to make him smile.
The Channel 5 reality show will return in January, and it is said the reality babe is set to enter the house and give people the best possible impression of her family.
An insider told the Daily Star: "She is really hoping her doing the show will give him something to look forward to. Bianca wants nothing more than for Paul to be happy and well again.
"She wants to show her family in a good light. She wants her family name to be celebrated."
The blonde beauty could be set to spill secrets about her stepfather when the show returns, and bosses are thought to be hoping that the model's feisty attitude will bring some much-needed drama to the house.
A source told Mail Online: "Not only is Bianca great value on her own she's also related to one of Britain's most famous and talked-about football stars."
"Producers think Bianca will be a big hit with viewers. She's a gorgeous girl who isn't afraid of flashing the flesh.
'She's also feisty and willing to speak her mind and stick up for herself. Bianca can be sweet, but she's not a walkover," added the source.
