Charlotte Crosby hopes former Geordie Shore roommate Sophie Kasaei will return to the show.
The bubbly brunette was devastated when her best pal in the Newcastle party pad was axed from the MTV reality show over a race row, and is crossing her fingers Sophie will be allowed to return for the next series.
She exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I'm definitely missing Sophie. I still talk to her all the time, we always go out together. She's my best friend now so she'll always be in my life.
"It's a bit sad that she won't also be in my work life as well because we had such a laugh."
Probed whether Sophie could be back in future, Charlotte sighed: "I know... it would be me dream that that would happen, but I just don't know."
The 24-year-old star scoffed at rumours new cast member Aaron Chalmers had £12,000 worth of plastic surgery to fit in with the boys in the house, and says he is far more of a "gentleman" than girl-obsessed stars Gary 'Gaz' Beadle and Scott Timlin.
She explained: "He's just had a nose job because he had a bump on his nose. I know Aaron from Newcastle, everyone knows everyone in Newcastle! He's a lovely lad, he's a gentleman. Well, I say that, but I mean he's just not like Gary and Scott. He's really nice.
"He's not always out trying to pull girls. Aaron's actually Gary's really good friend so he's not left out, he doesn't look any different, he's just not really that interested in going out and having sex with a different minger every night!"
'The Charlotte Crosby Experience' airs Tuesdays at 9pm on TLC.
