Meet Chanelle, Big Brother 2023 housemate and dental therapist
Chanelle is up for eviction tonight.
It's a big year for fans of reality TV, with the likes of Married at First Sight UK, Love Island and Love Is Blind all keeping us entertained.
But now there's a new kid on the block - the return of Big Brother - which has been providing non-stop dramas, arguments and has had social media talking endlessly each night.
One of the housemates who people can't stop talking about its Chanelle, a Dental Therapist from Llanelli, Wales.
Chanelle has found herself up for eviction this week, after her rule break meant her immunity was taken away from her.
The 29-year-old received four nominations, and with a double eviction looming, who knows how long she'll have left in the Big Brother house.

Chanelle only applied for Big Brother as a "joke" but it's something that she's ready to take on.
"I'm doing it for myself," she explained, adding: "For the experience and to make friends for life. Something that was a joke has now materialised into real life!"
She describes herself as "fun, bubbly and quite resilient," and is really interested in meeting people from all walks of life.
"I'm quite attentive and I love finding things out," Chanelle revealed.

As for what she's most likely to get nominated for, Chanelle admitted: "Probably just for being annoying. In Wales, we have this saying, 'I'll do it now in a minute'. So if I went to make food and I left a dish on the side, I have all good intentions of washing it but I'd be there like, 'I'll do it now in a minute', and it might be three hours later before I do it."
And what she'd do with the epic £100,000 in prize money? Chanelle wants to invest it in something big, while also paying of the "big CC" - her credit cards.
Is Big Brother's Chanelle on Instagram?
Yes! Chanelle does have an Instagram page, but like all of the other contestants it has been set to private while she takes part on the show.
Chanelle's Instagram handle is @chanellebowen but she won't be accepting requests any time soon.
As per ITV's Duty of Care protocols, Chanelle's Instagram will remain dormant over the course of her time in the Big Brother house, much like the Love Island contestants.
Big Brother continues on Sundays to Fridays at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
