Ex A Place in the Sun presenter Scarlette Douglas was a contestant on last year’s I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here.

And Stuart, 45, wants to link up with her and forge a career on the small screen.

They previously hosted shows together on Channel 4.

Now, with more time on his hands, Douglas wants to focus solely on finding opportunities on TV with his sibling.

According to the Daily Mail, he will stay with the Cherries until the end of the campaign.

Stuart and Scarlette worked on Worst House together.

The duo also fronted Flipping Fast, alongside George Clarke.

The property competition format on Channel 4 is about developers that hope to start their own property business.

Stuart and Scarlette also appeared on our TV screens together in a special edition of Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer’s Love It Or List It.

He retired from playing in 2011 following a spell at non league Poole Town.
