One of I'm A Celebrity's most legendary campmates 'tipped to return after 11 years'

The all stars edition of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! will be returning to TV screens with a second series, and there's already talks of which former campmates could be taking part in the show.

The spin-off series, titled I'm A Celebrity...South Africa, sees old campmates give the show another chance, but this time they swap the Australian jungle for the desert.

The show launched in 2024 and saw the likes of Helen Flanagan, Shaun Ryder and Jordan Banjo all returning, with Myleene Klass going on to win the series.

Now, with it having been confirmed the show is returning, rumours of which celebrities could be jetting to South Africa have started circulating, and one famous face who is tipped to having a second shot at I'm A Celebrity is Gemma Collins.

Gemma, who found fame on ITVBe's TOWIE, famously left the jungle after three days in 2014, having complained non-stop during her stay.

However, it seems Gemma could be ready to tackle the challenge once again.

A source told : "She hated it first time round, but knows it would be TV gold for her fans if she gave it another go. The discussions could go either way but signing her would be a huge win for execs."

Back in 2019, Gemma opened up about her I'm A Celebrity experience and admitted that given the opportunity, she would give the ITV show another go.

Speaking on The Jonathan Ross Show, she said: "I will never forget getting the call. Looking back, I don't feel I was ready for that show. I was new to TV, I was the underdog on Towie.

"I wasn't the best looking girl, I didn't have a model figure, I was this car girl from Romford selling cars. I was being put in the jungle and in hindsight I wasn't ready for it."

The reality TV personality went on to admit: "I felt hugely out of my depth - I was petrified. If I was to go back now, I've got more experience.

"I've got a tougher skin now and I think that's where The GC came into play. If they asked me back, yes I'd go back."

I'm A Celebrity...South Africa is set to begin filming in September with pre-production beginning sometime April. The series, hosted by Ant and Dec, will then air in 2026.

I'm a Celebrity... South Africa will return to ITV1 and ITVX.
