Hot-headed Megan made her name on our TVs after fiery appearances on The Only Way Is Essex, Big Brother and Ex on The Beach.

It wasn't until 2019 when the singer, songwriter's singing ability won her the first ever The X Factor: Celebrity show.

Following the news Megan said:“I’m so happy to confirm that I will be appearing as a guest on Sir Tom Jones’ summer shows.

"He’s a true legend and it will be a privilege to share the same stage. With the year we have all had, I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am to get back on stage and perform in front of a live audience.”

Liz Doogan-Hobbs MBE, CEO of LHG Events, promoter of the concert said: “We are delighted to confirm that Megan McKenna will be joining Sir Tom Jones on our shows this summer.
