A whole host of stars have been linked to the jungle\"RumouredRumoured I’m A Celebrity contestants for this year’s series(Image: ITV )<\/p>\n

As the nights draw in and winter approaches, anticipation is building for the return of I\u2019m A Celebrity\u2026 Get Me Out Of Here<\/a>! Rumours are swirling about which famous faces will swap their home comforts for the Australian jungle this year.<\/p>\n

The ITV<\/a> show, fronted by Ant and Dec since its debut in 2002, has become a staple of the festive season. With Strictly Come Dancing<\/a> already dominating Saturday nights, it won\u2019t be long before viewers are treated to the creepy crawlies of the jungle once again.<\/p>\n

From a Scouse media personality and boxing social media star to an Emmerdale<\/a> icon, here are the latest rumours about the line-up for I’m A Celebrity 2025.<\/a><\/p>\n

Christine McGuinness<\/p>\n

Model and TV personality Christine McGuinness has fuelled rumours of an appearance after revealing she\u2019s feeling more adventurous this year.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the Pride of Britain Awards, she told the Daily Mail<\/a>: “In the past I was never away from my children; I’d be frightened of the creepy crawlies; I have sensory issues.<\/p>\n

“I have never been outside Europe so flying over there would be quite a challenge, but I\u2019ve got a bit of \u2018f*** it\u2019.”<\/p>\n

“Trying to get over to the jungle might be a bit of a mission, but this year is the year I have been most like \u2018f*** it, why not?\u2019”<\/p>\n

Lisa Riley<\/p>\n

Emmerdale star Lisa Riley has long been on producers\u2019 wish lists \u2013 and she\u2019s confirmed the offers keep coming.<\/p>\n

She told the Daily Star<\/a> in 2023: “They ask me every year. They dangle that big carrot every year. I\u2019ve always said \u2018no\u2019, but the older I get\u2026 I\u2019m 47. I always go, \u2018Corr, I\u2019m getting old.\u2019<\/p>\n

“But in my head I always feel like I\u2019m 19; I\u2019m never going to change who I am. But maybe if there was a milestone like my 50th. Then maybe.<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cBut I think I\u2019d be quite boring, because I think I could cope. If you ask anyone at Emmerdale, I\u2019m a coper. I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s good telly.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019d be my usual confident self. I\u2019d be doing dance routines around the fire. I think if you put me in a tank of cockroaches, I could probably do that OK.<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t know, but you never know, but I\u2019m certainly not going in this year, that\u2019s for a fact!”<\/p>\n

Jools Oliver<\/p>\n

While celebrity chef Jamie Oliver has ruled himself out of the jungle, he\u2019s thrown his wife Jools\u2019 name into the mix. During an Instagram Live with Ant and Dec, Jamie said: “I think it\u2019s an amazing show, but honestly, you couldn\u2019t give me enough olive oil in the world to make me eat a witchetty grub or a kangaroo\u2019s a***, no way.<\/p>\n

“But what I can give you is my wife, Jools; she would love to be on the show. Go on, Jools.”<\/p>\n

Ant replied: \u201cWe would take Jools.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dec added: \u201cJools Oliver, first booking for 2025. Thanks, Jools, see you in Australia.\u201d<\/p>\n

Denise Van Outen<\/p>\n

Presenter and performer Denise Van Outen is also being tipped for a stint in the jungle.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Ladbrokes told Heart Radio: \u201cIt looks like the stars have finally aligned to give us Denise van Outback in 2025.<\/p>\n

“With a new album in the autumn and a tour booked for the spring, there\u2019s a glaring hole in her calendar that she could fill with a Bushtucker Trial or two.”<\/p>\n

Tommy Fury<\/p>\n

Love Island star and boxer Tommy Fury could also be heading Down Under. After reportedly turning down the show last year, he\u2019s once again rumoured to be in the mix.<\/p>\n

He previously told The Mirror: “I\u2019m a Celeb is an amazing show and it\u2019s something I want to do in the future.<\/p>\n

“At the end of the day I am what I am; I\u2019m a fighter and I\u2019ve been doing it since I was a kid.”<\/p>\n

The bookies’ favourites<\/p>\n

William Hill has released its early odds for the 2025 line-up, with Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps actor Will Mellor leading the pack at 1\/2. Jools Oliver follows closely at 4\/6.<\/p>\n

Sports stars are also well-represented, with Peter Crouch and Ally McCoist both at 6\/4, and Gary Lineker (4\/1) just ahead of Micah Richards (5\/1).<\/p>\n

Boxer Tommy Fury and darts legend Phil Taylor are both priced at 2\/1.<\/p>\n

TV favourites Patsy Palmer and Lisa Riley sit at 6\/4, while Denise Van Outen and Abbey Clancy are 5\/1.<\/p>\n

Long shots include Jeremy Clarkson at 3\/1, Olivia Attwood at 7\/2, and even former Prime Minister Boris Johnson at 16\/1.<\/p>\n

William Hill spokesperson Lee Phelps said: “Our market to appear on I’m A Celebrity 2025 has been released, with Will Mellor (1\/2) and Jools Oliver (4\/6) topping the list in the early stages, followed closely by Aitch, who is even money.<\/p>\n

“Kate Cassidy (5\/4) and Patsy Palmer (6\/4) are also favoured to appear on the show.<\/p>\n

“Football is unsurprisingly well represented, with Peter Crouch and Ally McCoist at 6\/4, followed by Gary Lineker (4\/1) and Micah Richards (5\/1).<\/p>\n

“The sporting names continue with Phil Taylor and Tommy Fury, both priced 2\/1 to enter the jungle. There\u2019s been plenty of discussion around Jeremy Clarkson\u2019s next move \u2013 and 3\/1 says it\u2019ll be Down Under.<\/p>\n

“Other household favourites like Olivia Attwood (7\/2), Denise van Outen and Abbey Clancy (both 5\/1) are on the cards to appear on the show.<\/p>\n

“Former Prime Minister Boris Johnson is deemed less likely to sign up for the series but remains a possibility at 16\/1.”<\/p>\n
