Hard man and Celbrity Big Brother contestant Vinnie Jones has invited newlyweds, Alex Reid and Katie Price to go and stay with him at his home in LA.

Surprisingly, Vinnie and Alex became firm friends during their time in the BB house.

Vinnie told the Sun: "They're gonna come over. She [Katie] saw my wife Tanya at the party after the show. They exchanged numbers and are coming over in March. They're going to stay with us."

He added: "I was sure I was going to have a tear-up with him. But he was alright. As I said, he's a lovable prat."

Is this a game plan by Vinnie to cash in on the media storm surrounding the newlyweds? Let's face it, Lock Stock was a while back now....
