A source let slip to Daily Star: “Katie went down a storm with bosses during her appearance on the show last month and producers are looking to make her a regular on the show.
“Meetings are ongoing but after the success of her BBC documentary Harvey and Me, she’s keen to show there’s more to her than her glamour model past.
“She will be covering a string of serious issues that are close to her heart – almost in a roving reporter style position.”
Daily Star understands that the current plan is for Katie to contribute to the Steph McGovern show on an every-other-week basis.
Katie is also reportedly set to film a follow-up BBC documentary to Harvey and Me.
The second programme will follow Harvey transitioning into a residential college later this year.
