Another recent villa star Yasmin Hadlow will also be at the ceremony, fresh from her split with Tommy Stagg, but fortunately for Yas, we’re told Tommy will not be there. “Tommy isn’t on the list for tonight, so Yasmin will be spared that awkwardness. Poor Priya won’t get the same reprieve,” our source added. The Sun was first to reveal Priya and Aidan had called time on their romance, after realising they are better off as friends.
