Emma Willis has admitted to feeling ‘really nervous’ about the Big Brother revival, as the iconic reality show returns to our screens next year.
The sensational programme has found a new home at ITV after being off screens since 2018.
Big Brother saw the likes of Alison Hammond and Josie Gibson rising to fame, after it originally launched on Channel 4 in 2000.
Emma, 46, presented Big Brother for five years from 2013 to 2018, following in the footsteps of Davina McCall and Brian Dowling.
Speaking on This Morning, Emma admitted: ‘I can’t wait for it to come back.
‘I’m really excited, I’m really nervous because I don’t know what it’s going to be like.
‘But I really, I know that they’ll do it fantastically well.’
‘And I can’t wait to watch it,’ she added, confirming that she won’t be returning as a host.
‘I will be a viewer,’ she said, before talking about how much of a ‘huge fan’ she’s ‘always’ been.
‘I’ve always been a viewer from the beginning as well as working on it, so it’s nice to not have that responsibility anymore and give that to someone else.’
Emma previously ruled herself out of hosting the revival saying she’s already ‘said goodbye’.
‘I think with every new era of Big Brother, I think there should be a new host,’ she told RadioTimes.com.
‘You know, I loved my time on the show, and I very much kind of said goodbye to it back then because we thought it was over.
‘I don’t tend to go back. I like to move forward.’
She continued: ‘I think it’s right. It’s starting again, it’s got a new home – it should have a new host.’
This Morning airs weekdays from 10am on ITV.
