A former Strictly Come Dancing star and a BBC Radio DJ 'get ready for the jungle' after ITV pulled off a double whammy by 'signing them up' for the new series of I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!


A former Strictly Come Dancing contestant and a BBC DJ have signed up for the latest series of I'm A Movie star Get Me Out Of Right here.

They are in talks with the ITV program to go into the jungle and promise to tell the station the information.

The two new signings will join the likes of Unfastened Ladies' Coleen Rooney and Jane Moore.

Reverend Richard Coles, 63, will front Down Below alongside rising Radio 1 star Dean McCullough, 32, according to the Sun.

The former Strictly star, formerly of pop group The Communards, has been an outspoken critic of the BBC before and last year said the broadcaster “didn't know its ass from its elbow”.

Rising Radio 1 star Dean McCullough, 32, is also rumored to be heading to the jungle.

A source told the publication: 'As always, the jungle bosses have cleverly put together some sensational programming that guarantees compulsive viewing.

'Rev Coles will have a variety of stories to tell from his wild days as a pop star in the Eighties, to his performance on Strictly and his later life as a clergyman.

“Meanwhile, Dean is not known for being a shy violet and is sure to be outspoken; Additionally, he is one of the youngest men lined up for the program so far.”

Richard previously presented Radio 4's Saturday Dwell show but left last year after more than a decade on the channel.

The star said he was hurt by the way his exit had been handled and had been told previously. The Guardian newspaper: 'If you leave a program after 12 years, a gentler process would have been nice. But what happens happens.

“It just feels a little rushed. It's been frustrating for me to have to wait for an announcement and now it's my last show on Saturday. I would rather have had a longer goodbye to the listeners.

'It just feels a little sad. I'm sorry to go; I loved the show, I loved the people I worked with and it's been a big part of my life. I will miss him.

A sports legend could also join the radio announcers.

Ally McCoist, 62, is high on Ant and Dec's radar to appear on the show this year despite turning down the opportunity to take part in the show twice before.

TV presenters Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly are desperate to get the Scottish pundit to star in this year's lineup, according to The Mirror.

A source told the publication: “Ally has a huge fan base thanks to her years as a commentator and pundit, as well as her long stint on A Query of Sport.”

“It would be great for the jungle, as his wife and kids have been telling him forever, so everyone is very hopeful that this will be the year.”

But the show's biggest success so far is hiring WAG Coleen.

The wife of former England footballer Wayne Rooney is believed to have pocketed a fee that surpasses the staggering £1.5million Nigel Farage collected last year.

There are hopes Coleen will recount her epic fight with Rebekah Vardy.

It is also believed that she will get the 'ultimate revenge' as Rebekah was ousted earlier in the 2017 series.

According to The Solar on Sunday, Coleen is expected to fly out in November to take part in the show of which her four children are said to be big fans.

A source said: “I'm A Celeb bosses have taken a big step by landing Coleen for the jungle this year and the team are delighted to have her on board.”

'She has always been a big fan of the show and loves watching it with her children. ITV is delighted that the stars have aligned this year and she can fit in. The series will be one of the best yet.

While the release date for the series has yet to be announced, fans can rest assured that the show is just a few weeks away as it is scheduled to air in November (I'm A Celeb's (LR) Ant and Dec in the photo).

“Coleen has a huge fan base and has earned huge plaudits for her elegant handling of the Wagatha Christie case.”

The couple became the center of a major storm in 2019 when Coleen accused Rebekah of leaking stories about her to the press.

Rebekah then sued Coleen for defamation over the claim, but it was Coleen who prevailed when a judge declared in 2022 that her claim was “substantially true.”

Rebekah was subsequently instructed to pay 90 per cent of Coleen, 38,'s fees, with an initial payment of £800,000, but has been contesting the claimed costs of £1.8million.

At the end of the latest hearing, which began on Monday, Costs Judge Andrew Gordon-Saker has told Rebekah to pay an additional £100,000 within 21 days.

In terms of the line-up for this year's camp, TikTok star GK Barry is said to be in “advanced talks” with ITV bosses for a role.

Boxer Tommy Fury could also be heading to Australia amid his split from Molly Mae Hague.
