Kerry Katona has tipped her ex-boyfriend Lucian Laviscount to be the next James Bond.
The former Atomic Kitten singer has reflected on her fling with the Emily In Paris actor when they met in the Celebrity Big Brother house way back in 2011, describing him as ‘charming’ and noting their romance was ‘all just a bit of fun’.
Lucian was 19 and Kerry was 31 when they met on the reality show, and at the time they posed for some cosy snaps for an OK! magazine cover shoot discussing their age gap and experiences on the show.
The cover recently went viral as shocked fans remembered they used to be an item, and Kerry has reflected on their romance in an new interview for the publication.
She said: ‘Apparently my OK! magazine cover from 2011 with my former Celebrity Big Brother housemate Lucien Laviscount has gone viral on social media! Lucien was very charming and obviously easy on the eye, and it was all just a bit of fun.’
Meanwhile, she also discussed his chances at following on from Daniel Craig as 007 after his success as love interest Alfie alongside Lily Collins in Netflix’s Emily In Paris.

Responding to recent rumours, she said: ‘I have seen Lucien as Alfie in Emily In Paris on Netflix – he’s a great actor, so it’s no wonder he is being tipped to be the next Bond.
‘People were even joking that I could have made a good Bond girl – and that just made me giggle!’
Now, Kerry is happily engaged to personal trainer Ryan Murphy, but back in 2011 she was hyping up his acting skills and predicting big things for him in their joint interview with OK!
‘Well, Lucien’s career is going to skyrocket,’ she said, while she also admitted there was a definite spark between them in the CBB digs.
‘Lucien has it all – he’s a geek, intelligent, loveable, great for cuddles, understanding. He is everything all rolled into one. But I don’t think I’m his type,’ she said. ‘There was a lot of sexual tension, definitely. If the cameras hadn’t been there, God knows what would have happened!’
