Full line-up for I’m A Celebrity 2026 revealed
The star-studded lineup for this year's series of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! has now been revealed, according to reports.
There's been tons of speculation about who might be heading into the jungle next month for the 26th season of the beloved ITV series - but ITV bosses have remained tightlipped.
However, a dozen of the famous faces who will soon be Australia-bound have just been unmasked, according to The Sun.
Ant and Dec are set to return to our TV screens in just a matter of weeks to host this year's instalment of I'm A Celeb and the Geordie duo have already been drumming up excitement.

In a recent teaser video, the pair led a choir who were belting out an I’m A Celeb-themed Christmas carol while they were doused in worms and gunge.
Dec declares that the 'most wonderful time of the year' is nigh - so, let's take a look at who is supposed to be joining them Down Under this year.
There's quite the interesting mix of personalities being thrust in the melting pot that is the I'm A Celeb jungle for the upcoming series - including football legend Wayne Rooney.
Joanna Page
Gavin and Stacey star Joanna Page is among those who have made the cut for this year's series.
Rumours have been swirling over the last few months suggesting that the actress, who is best known for playing the iconic Stacey Shipman, has been planning to make a big TV comeback.
And what better way to do that then attempt a few Bushtucker Trials, eh lads?
Ade Adepitan
Wheelchair basketball legend and Paralympian Ade Adepitan will be keeping Page company in the Australian jungle, reports claim.
This will make him the first celebrity to take part in the competition in a wheelchair and the camp is set to be adapted to accommodate him.
ITV bosses are said to have been very keen to secure Adepitan's participation, as they reckon his 'infectious, larger-than-life personality' will be a hit with Brits.
Sharmarke Mohamud
YouTube star Sharmarke Mohamud, a pivotal member of the Beta Squad, is also heading Down Under next month.
The 30-year-old achieved viral fame after his videos hit the big time in 2015 and now boasts more than 1.5 million subscribers on his personal account.
Chloe Burrows
After conquering the Love Island villa, Chloe Burrows is hoping to do the same in the Australian jungle.
The KISS radio host has experience in winning viewers over thanks to her stint on the dating show in 2021, so she will likely be one to watch.
After becoming a reality star, she has built a significant social media presence, hosts her own podcast and is now a radio host.
Ricky Wilson
Singer and former The Voice coach Ricky Wilson is set to try his hand at jungle life too, reports claim.
The 48-year-old is best known for fronting the Kaiser Chiefs and has finally given into repeated requests to join the I'm A Celeb cast.
Apparently, he has always 'politely declined' the offer to take part - but it seems he has now had a change of heart.
AJ Odudu
Big Brother host AJ Odudu was said to be 'keen as mustard' to join the gang heading into this year's jungle.
She was said to be snatching the hand off of ITV bosses, and much to her glee, she is a part of this year's I'm A Celeb lineup.
Mariella Frostrup
Norwegian broadcaster Mariella Frostrup, 63, has been recruited for this year's I'm A Celeb.
The journalist might be a source of advice for her fellow contestants, given that she was an agony aunt for The Observer for two decades.
Leomie Anderson
British stunner Leomie Anderson will also be among those facing the Ant and Dec, the elements and a boatload of insects in this year's series.
She's previously walked the catwalk for Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows and earned a spot on Forbes 30 Under 30 list back in 2020.
Claire Sweeney
Claire Sweeney is also reportedly on board for I'm A Celeb 2026.
The Brookside legend, 55, was rumoured to have cleared her schedule to ensure she could make it to the jungle next month.
Wayne Rooney
It appears that the rumours surrounding Rooney's involvement in the ITV show were in fact true after all, too.
Following in the footsteps of his wife Colleen, who came second on the 24th series, the former Manchester United player is said to be starring in this year's I'm A Celeb.
It was previously reported that producers were working to secure Rooney's participation, dubbing it the 'biggest signing in the show’s history'.
Leigh Francis
Funnyman Leigh Francis, better known to some as Keith Lemon, is also reportedly heading into the jungle this year.
The 53-year-old is bound to bring the comedy to the camp - and even Ant and Dec are excited to see how he'll fare in Australia.
The Geordie duo previously discussed how they would love to watch him take on a trial on their podcast and added: "Let’s try and make that happen!"
Jack Skipper
Fellow funnyman Jack Skipper, from London, is also joining these lot in the jungle.
Former Little Mix star Jesy was supposed to head into the Aussie jungle this November to spread awareness of SMA1, however, she was reportedly forced to pull out due to her daughters being unwell.
