Summarised from 4 outlets · Updated 23 Oct, 09:58 · Archive

ITV's I'm a Celebrity is expected to return in November with Wayne Rooney and Jeremy Clarkson among the rumoured contestants.

ITV's I'm a Celebrity is expected to return to Australian jungle in November, with Ant and Dec hosting once again. No official lineup has been confirmed by the broadcaster, but speculation is already circulating about potential contestants.

Wayne Rooney and Jeremy Clarkson are among the biggest names rumoured to be entering the jungle. Rooney would potentially follow in the footsteps of his wife Coleen, who finished as runner-up in the 2024 series.

Other celebrities reportedly in talks to appear include former Love Island star Chloe Burrows, ex-Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson and Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson. According to LADbible, the potential lineup could be 'one of the wildest jungle line ups yet'.

Last year's winner, Angry Ginge, set what commentators describe as a high bar for this year's contestants, who will face the show's gruelling Bushtucker Trials.

ITV is yet to confirm an official start date, but the series is expected to begin at 9pm on Monday, November 16. This is one day later than originally planned, due to England's UEFA Nations League match against Spain on Sunday, November 15.
