The countdown is officially on!
A fresh batch of celebrities have started arriving in Australia ahead of the new series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, which kicks off on ITV next week.
Although ITV bosses have yet to officially confirm the full line-up, eagle-eyed fans and paparazzi have already spotted several stars touching down at Brisbane Airport, and they’ve wasted no time hinting at what’s to come.
Among the first arrivals was Kelly Brook, who looked relaxed but excited as she greeted waiting photographers. The Loose Women panellist and model confirmed she’ll be heading into the jungle, saying:
“I am going to miss my dog Teddy, my husband Jeremy, and my food in general!”
The star, who has previously turned down offers to join the show, seems ready to take on the iconic jungle trials, and joked that she’s already preparing to “brace herself” for what’s ahead.
Hot on her heels was Emmerdale favourite Lisa Riley, best known for playing Mandy Dingle. The soap legend couldn’t hide her excitement about joining the hit reality show, telling reporters:
“I am a Dingle, I can cope with anything! We did Dingles Down Under many years ago, and I feel it’s only right we do it again.”
Lisa’s arrival sparked huge excitement among fans, with many taking to social media to celebrate the idea of one of the Dingle clan facing the jungle.
Also spotted arriving Down Under was former EastEnders star Shona McGarty, who recently left her long-running role as Whitney Dean on the BBC soap. Shona, 33, smiled as she made her way through arrivals, keeping quiet about the details of her jungle adventure but admitting she’s “ready for a new challenge.”
But the trio aren’t the only ones heading into the famous camp. Sources close to production have also revealed a few more names expected to join the cast, including musician Martin Kemp, YouTuber Morgan Burtwistle (better known as AngryGinge), comedian Ruby Wax, TV presenter Alex Scott, and Jack Osbourne.
Rounding out the rumoured line-up are comedian Eddie Kadi, rapper Aitch, and presenter Vogue Williams, making this one of the most eclectic groups the show has ever seen.
The 2025 edition of I’m A Celebrity will once again be hosted by Ant and Dec, returning to the Australian jungle after another hugely successful series last year. ITV insiders say producers are pulling out all the stops to make this year’s camp “the toughest yet,” with bigger trials, more surprises, and plenty of drama in store.
Fans are already buzzing with excitement as photos of the new arrivals flood social media, with many predicting this could be “the best cast in years.”
One fan posted:
“Kelly Brook and Lisa Riley in the same camp? This is going to be gold!”
Another joked:
“If Martin Kemp’s in there, I want him to perform Gold every time someone wins a star!”
The new series is expected to premiere next Sunday on ITV1 and ITVX, with the official line-up to be confirmed in the coming days.
Get ready for bugs, trials, and plenty of celebrity chaos, because the jungle is calling!
