Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattison has teamed up with MTV to participate in a new dating series, Ex on the Beach, which will see eight contestants being surprised by their exes while on an island looking for love.

Pattison commented 'This show genuinely revolves around a group of young people going out and finding love. Which I think is novel when so much emphasis is based on sleeping around and living for the moment – this is about finding someone and I do think that's really nice and I'm so excited to be a part of it'.
