Philip Regan is a content creator from Liverpool who many may recognise as the Queen of Scotty Road from social media – but he is leaving that persona behind.
"I’m going to go in as the Queen of Scotty Road, but I’m going to come out as Philip Regan," he said.
"There will never be a dull moment when I’m there," he added. "I’ll always put a smile on everyone’s faces. If I see anyone unhappy, no matter what, I’ll be there for them – whether I like them or not. You’re better being a friend to me than an enemy. I’m a very good friend, but I’m a very bad enemy."

What would Philip Regan do if he won Big Brother?
If Philip were to win Big Brother he'd ensure his close family members, his mum in particular, were OK.
He explained: "She’s worked all her life. I’d also sort my family out. And I’d give some money to the charities I regularly work with. I would see them OK. And some very close friends. The rest, I would use to enjoy myself."
