One and Only hitmaker Chesney is already going down a storm with viewers, but some were shocked to learn he’s 53.
Taking to social media, one said: “Sorry what do you mean chesney hawkes is 53?!”
Another wrote: “WTF? Chesney Hawkes is 53 years old now! Looks good on it, tbh.”
And a third simply added: “Chesney is 53!!!!!!!”
After being forced to cancel tour dates to appear on the current series, Chesney revealed the heartbreaking reason he signed up for the show.
In a video posted to his official social media accounts, he said: “Hey guys, so if you’re watching this I am now in the Big Brother house.
“Been mad trying to fend off all the rumours whilst promoting an album now.”
Chesney told how he’d made a pact with a close friend who tragically died a few weeks ago.
“Sorry I had to reschedule some tour dates, but I will be back bigger and better for you I promise.
“I made a pact with a very good friend of mine a few weeks ago that I was gonna take life by the horns and say yes to every crazy opportunity that came my way.
“And this, rather timely, is the first instance of that. I guess sometimes the universe just works its magic.”
Chesney was the first housemate to move into the CBB house this year and speaking in his pre-show VT, he admitted to being a “bit of a nudist”.
