Chanelle Hayes 'expecting first child'

Former Big Brother star Chanelle Hayes is reportedly expecting her first child with footballer Matthew Bates.

The 22-year-old has told friends that she is "delighted" after attending her 12-week scan, according to The Sun.

Hayes, who appeared in the 2007 series of the reality show, was rushed to hospital last August following a reported overdose of painkillers and red wine. She was later spotted outside The Priory.

She later told a newspaper that she was getting her life back on track.

A friend of the model said: "The dark days are behind now and Chanelle is absolutely thrilled. Matthew's over the moon too."
