Gemma Collins and Danniella Westbrook will undergo counselling on a new TV show.
The 'Celebrity Big Brother' contestants will open up about their private lives and personal struggles to a professional counsellor on Channel 5's new series 'In Therapy' - an extension of last year's one off episode 'Katie Price: In Therapy'.
A source told The Daily Star newspaper: "Gemma and Danniella both had lives more sensational than any soap opera so there's no doubt this session will make for very compelling viewing."
Following the success of the shows debut with glamour model Kate Price, Channel 5 bosses have decided to bring back the show with a full series.
Former 'The Only Way Is Essex' star Gemma has battled with body insecurities and endured a turbulent love life, and domestic abuse, whilst former 'EastEnders' actress Danniella has struggled with cocaine addiction.
The 42-year-old actress, who plays Sam Mitchell on the BBC One soap, is set to return to Albert Square after six years with the funeral of on-screen mother Peggy later this year.
And Gemma, 35, has signed up for her own reality TV show, 'The Only Way Is Gemma'.

'Coronation Street's Sarah-Louise Platt will be left terrified as she goes into labour five weeks early.
The Rovers Return barmaid is pregnant with late drug dealer Callum Logan's baby and despite plans to undergo a Cesarean section, she will have a natural birth in Tracy Barlow's flower store, with Mary Taylor as her midwife after her waters break prematurely.
Sarah - played by Tina O'Brien - previously suffered the death of her son Billy Grimshaw, just 24 hours after he was born, and the early birth of her new child will prove traumatic for her.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Sarah has lost one baby and is terrified lightning could strike twice. What she went through with baby Billy was so hard and she can't face that again!"
Callum was killed last year by his ex, Sarah's sister-in-law Kylie Platt, and his body is currently buried underneath the concrete ground in the annex at Sarah's mother's house.
And Sarah's hatred for the evil drug dealer cause problems when she tries to bond with the baby.
The insider added: "It's an innocent baby who needs its mum but just looking at him brings up so many bad memories for her.
"All she wants to do is forget Callum -- but her new baby means it will never be possible."

Ted Reilly is joining the cast of 'EastEnders' as Johnny Carter.
He replaces Sam Strike as the son of Queen Vic landlords Mick and Linda Carter. Johnny's last appearance on the BBC soap was December 2014 when he came out as gay before leaving to go travelling with his boyfriend.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Ted knows this is a big chance for him and he is really excited about joining the soap. Johnny was a controversial character before with lots of big storylines so he will come back onto the show with a bang."
Speaking previously about the decision to bring back Johnny, an 'EastEnders' spokesperson said: "There are so many more stories that we wanted to tell with Johnny, so we felt that the time was right to unite the Carter family again.
"The Carter family quickly became one of 'EastEnders' most iconic families and there are lots of stories planned for them, but it felt it would be a shame if those stories had to be told without Johnny's involvement. Whoever gets the job will be landing themselves a dream role."
Ted's previous acting credits include 'Call The Midwife', 'Casualty' and 'Grantchester'.

Tiffany Pollard wants a feisty threesome with her 'Celebrity Big Brother' housemates Jeremy McConnell and Scotty T.
The 34-year-old reality TV star is desperate to get her hands on the Irish hunk and the 'Geordie Shore' lothario so they can have a steamy sex session in the bedroom following their on-screen chemistry inside the infamous house last month.
She explained: "I'd do a few things with Jeremy. Now if you're talking Scotty and Jeremy, it would be the perfect sandwich."
However, the brunette beauty doesn't think Scotty T - whose full name is Scott Timlin - would be able to handle her.
She said: "He's a Geordie w**re, but I'd show him elegance and class. He's had little girls but I'd be his first woman. I'd show him new movements in the bedroom and take him to a whole new level. We have unfinished business. I need to see how that turbo glides into me. I'm restless until that happens."
However, one person Tiffany is unlikely to get her hands on is Jeremy, 25, as he's currently loved up with fellow housemate Stephanie Davis, although she doesn't believe it'll last.
Speaking to new! magazine, she said: "There was a lot of passion between them in the house, but I don't think it's something Jeremy wants. She thinks there's a future with him but he's a single lad - he wants to be wild. He's not a stallion that wants to be tamed. He's going to have his fun. He grabbed my ass several times at a party after the show."

Samia Ghadie had a breast infection last month.
The 'Coronation Street' actress was put on an emergency dose of antibiotics after she stopped breastfeeding her five-month-old son Yves, whom she has with her fiance Sylvain Longchambon, and developed a nasty case of mastitis as a result of a blocked milk duct.
She explained: "I stopped breastfeeding about three weeks ago so I'm just feeling normal again. I did four months but then I got mastitis in one of my breasts.
"It was awful. I started to try and drop Yves' feeds and substitute them with a bottle as I'm starting back at work but because I did that my milk ducts got blocked and that caused a breast infection. "
The 33-year-old star feared for her life when her midwife warned her that, if left untreated, the medical condition could lead to an abscess and then may need urgent surgery to remove the pus-filled boil.
She said: "I am a worrier and I'm obsessed with Google, so I Googled it. Then I rang the midwife who told me to get to the doctors. She said if it went undiagnosed I could develop an abscess and that might lead to me needing surgery."
Samia - who also has daughter Freya, six, with her ex-husband Matt Smith - spent 10 days with frozen cabbages stuck to her swollen boob and has now made a full recovery.
She added to OK! magazine: "It was really painful. I had shooting pains in my breasts so I spent ten days with frozen cabbage leaves on my boobs!"

Leon Lopez has joined 'EastEnders'.
The 36-year-old actor - who is known for playing Jerome Johnson in 'Brookside' between 1999 and 2002 - is set to cause a stir next week when he rocks up in Walford as the foster brother of Vincent Hubbard (Richard Blackwood).
Speaking to the Digital Spy, he said of his new role on the soap: "I'm so excited to be working on 'EastEnders' and still can't believe it! It really is a dream come true."
Although some people won't be best pleased to see a newbie on the Square, it seems Linford's arrival has come just at the right time as he manages to stop his busybody foster mother Claudette Hubbard (Ellen Thomas) locking horns with her daughter-in-law Kim (Tameka Empson).
The strong-willed women come to blows yet again over little Pearl's first birthday party when they both have different ideas on how the festivities should go off.
But Claudette will soon be stopped in her tracks when Linford surprises her with a visit but, although she's delighted to see him, she can't help but doubt why he's decided to show up.
And it seems her suspicions prove to be correct as the hunk later comes clean about what really brought him to Walford.
Meanwhile, Leon's latest gig is only supposed to be a short guest role but his future on 'EastEnders' is yet to be revealed.

Will Young almost "poisoned" Mary Berry when he competed on 'The Great Sport Relief Bake Off'.
The 37-year-old singer is set to appear on the show later this month but has admitted his muffin-making skills aren't up to scratch as he almost killed the head judge, 80, with his food.
Speaking to Radio 2's Jo Whiley, he said: "I will just tell you, I am the worst baker you have ever seen. I almost poisoned Mary Berry... you'll have to wait and find out.
"I could have been thrown in the Tower Of London for that. I didn't mean to do it. [She didn't have to go to the doctor's] because it was all fine. And that's what my lawyer's said.
"It was brilliant though and I did get a little taste for baking but perhaps under a very watchful eye."
Despite his lethal mishap in the kitchen, the former 'Pop Idol' winner still could have clawed his way to the top and nabbed the Star Baker crown if he'd beaten his fellow contestants Alison Steadman, Ade Edmondson and Morgana Robinson.
However, Will remained tight-lipped on the outcome of his heat and has teased fans will need to tune in to see what occurred when they whipped out their aprons and headed into the bakery tent.
Will is set to appear on 'The Great Sport Relief Bake Off' on February 24 on BBC One.

Jessica Wright has quit 'The Only Way is Essex'.
The 30-year-old reality TV star won't be appearing in the forthcoming series when it returns to screens later this month after deciding to turn her back on the show - the programme that made her famous - following five successful years.
Speaking in a short video uploaded to her social networking sites this morning (16.02.16), the brunette beauty explained: "After five amazing years on 'The Only Way Is Essex', it is time for me to step away. I've had THE best time and I wanna say thank you all so much for all your support."
And, although she's turning away from the hit series after half a decade on screen, Jessica has teased it won't be the last fans see of her as she's got some other things in the pipeline.
She said: "You will be seeing me soon and I'm also gonna be keeping up with all the goss in Essex. Love you all lots!"
The busty babe's revelation comes just days after her former cast mates Pete Wicks, Danielle Armstrong, Tommy Mallet, Kate Wright, Bobby Norris and Georgia Kousoulou were spotted jetting off to Gran Canaria to shoot the new series.
Meanwhile, Jessica joined the reality TV show when it first hit screens in 2010 alongside her brother Mark, who quit in 2011, and, over the years, she's had her fair share of romance, heartbreak, arguments and diva tantrums.
