Katya cooks up way to lay pasta to rest

STRICTLY pro Katya Jones and ex-Corrie actor Ryan Thomas have signed up for Celebrity MasterChef – to help lay their pasts to rest.

Katya, 32, hit the headlines in 2018 when she was spotted kissing her comedian dance partner Seann Walsh and her marriage to fellow pro Neil collapsed.

A MasterChef insider said: “She feels she’s still judged and MasterChef is a great opportunity to show her fun, likeable side.”

Ryan, 37, won Celebrity Big Brother in 2018 but was falsely accused of attacking ex-Emmerdale actress Roxanne Pallett.

The insider said: “Ryan is so excited. After what happened with Roxanne, this is a light fun show.”

The BBC cooking contest will be screened later this year.
