Cecilie Fjellhoy, one of the victims of the notorious 'Tinder Swindler', has reportedly signed up to take part in the new series of Celebs Go Dating.
Simon Leviev is alleged to have manipulated multiple women from around the world into sending him hundreds of thousands of pounds in order to fund a highly-extravagant lifestyle - claims which were examined in the hugely popular Netflix documentary The Tinder Swindler.
Fjellhoy - a Norwegian tech designer - was one of the women who gave their account in the documentary and says that she was conned out of £180,000 by Leviev, who denies all of the allegations against him.
Now The Sun says that she has joined the cast of the new series of the E4 dating show in a bid to find love for real.
"Cecilie has joined the Celebs Go Dating lineup and will be heading into the agency this month," a source told the newspaper.
"She had a terrible time with Simon and hopes appearing on the show will give her a confidence boost.
"Cecilie wants a decent man who won't take her for a ride.
"As well as meeting someone new, she thinks the show will be part of a healing process for her as she learns to trust again."
The series is being filmed in the coming months for broadcast on E4 in early 2023.
