OHMYGOSSIP — Carol Vorderman looks set to return to ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ for the all-stars series.
The 61-year-old TV presenter took part in the 2016 series, in which ‘Gogglebox’ star Scarlett Moffatt beat comedian Joel Dommett to the jungle crown, and she looks set to head to South Africa this summer to film the spin-off, which will be broadcast next year.
A source said: “Carol was always top of producers’ wish list; in some ways she was the perfect campmate.
“She was funny, outspoken and intelligent and let’s just say she gave the younger girls a run for their money in the jungle shower.”
Signing up Carol for the spin-off series is said to be a “no brainer” by bosses.
The source added to The Sun newspaper: “Her flirtations with Joel were one of the big talking points of the series so signing up Carol for all-stars looks like a no brainer.”
Former royal butler Paul Burrell, 64, ex-‘You Are What You Eat’ presenter Gillian McKeith, 62, and pro boxer Amir Khan, 35, have also been linked to the series.
But one star who will not be heading to South Africa for the show is Christopher Biggins, who has ruled himself out of the programme.
The 73-year-old actor won the seventh season of the jungle-based reality show in 2007 but he insisted he won’t be signing up for the 2023 special because he doesn’t want to risk losing his crown.
He recently said: “I’m very wary of it because I don’t want to lose my title as King of the Jungle.”
