"I’ve been in the house with them, and I’ve done other shows outside of Big Brother with them as well, so it’s not like I’m basing my opinion on one encounter, so I think Louis hit the nail really hard on the head.”
James and Jedward took part in Celebrity Big Brother: All-Stars and New Stars back in 2017.
They appeared in the spin-off series alongside the likes of Kim Woodburn, Calum Best and Chloe Ferry.
Jedward placed second just behind winner Coleen Nolan.
