NORTH star Denise Welch will sail through her Big Brother experience . . so long as she stays off the booze.
And that’s the verdict of the man who knows her best – her beloved hubby Tim Healy!
The Auf Wiedersehen, Pet star, who lives with Denise and their two children in Cheshire, admits he’s not normally a fan of reality TV shows, but he’s finding it hard to resist watching Celebrity Big Brother 2012 now that his own missus is living in the famous house.
Denise, 53, was the last person to enter the house on Thursday, joining former EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy, X Factor reject Frankie Cocozza, Playboy Playmates Kristina and Karissa Shannon and actor Michael Madsen, among others.
After just two full days of tasks and chats with her housemates, the Waterloo Road star is already second favourite to win the series with bookies William Hill.
Tim said: “It’s not a programme I would normally watch, I’m not a fan of reality TV.
“She seems to be doing fine as long as she stays off the booze.”
