'BB' Chanelle: 'I'm ready to mingle'

Former Big Brother star Chanelle Hayes has announced that she is ready to start dating again.

The glamour model, who split from Middlesbrough footballer Matthew Bates earlier this year, told the Daily Star that Halloween could provide the perfect opportunity for her to find a new boyfriend.

Hayes commented: "I'm single and ready to mingle. I feel sexier and sassier than ever and I'm ready to unleash my wicked side. Watch out boys."

The 21-year-old reportedly took an overdose of paracetamol and red wine following an argument with Bates in the summer. She later vowed to seek help for her problems and was spotted at The Priory clinic.

Hayes previously dated fellow Big Brother housemate Ziggy Lichman.
