Lisa Riley

Lisa Riley is an actress and comedian, best known for her role as Mandy Dingle on Emmerdale.
When asked if rumours of her taking part on I'm a Celeb were true, Lisa Riley told Betway: "Well, maybe it's the year when I really need to think about going in. I don’t know! But listen, they ask me every year – the carrot is always dangled.
"So, I’m not going to say yes or no, but all I can say is, maybe it is something I should think about doing after seeing all of the love for me going in or for potentially doing it is unbelievable. Maybe it’s something I should really think about in the future, and apparently, I would be the favourite to win it, or so they say."
Gemma Collins

Gemma Collins may not have lasted very long during her first stint on I'm a Celebrity, but the reality star is currently said to be in talks for an All Stars version of the series.
"She hated it first time round but knows it would be TV gold for her fans if she gave it another go," a source told The Sun.

Patsy Palmer is an actress and DJ, best known for her role as Bianca Jackson in EastEnders. The actress left the soap in 2014, but over the years has reprised her role for short stints.
She recently bowed out from the soap again as part of Natalie Cassidy's exit as Sonia Fowler.
Outside of her acting career, Palmer has been DJing since 2012 and has been living in the United States since 2014. Earlier this year, the actress took part in Celebrity Big Brother, so her partaking in I'm a Celebrity may be less than likely now.
Prior to her appearing on Big Brother, Palmer had 2/1 odds to star in this year's I'm a Celebrity.
Jack Grealish

Age: 29
Job: Footballer
Instagram: @jackgrealish
Jack Grealish is a professional footballer who currently plays for Manchester City and the England national team. Previously to his Manchester move, Grealish played for Aston Villa, a team he had played for since he was six years old.
Now this is one is pretty unlikely with Grealish's busy schedule at Manchester City, but he did previously admit he would love to appear on the show.
Sending a video to hosts Ant & Dec last year, Grealish said: "Hey guys, Jack here. I've heard that a few of you guys want to see me in the jungle. I can't lie to you this is something that I'd absolutely love to do.
"It's a show that I've watched since I was little and it's a show that I love. I don’t know how I’d get on in there and I don’t think I’d be the best, to be honest, but I'd give it a go."
Jools Oliver

Age: 50
Job: Designer
Instagram: @joolsoliver
Jools Oliver is a designer and owns the lifestyle brand Little Bird.
While rumours linking Jamie Oliver to the series crop up from time to time, he put them to bed while suggesting his wife could take part instead.
"I think it's an amazing show, but honestly you couldn't give me enough olive oil in the world to make me eat a witchetty grub or a kangaroo's a**e, no way," the celebrity chef told hosts Ant & Dec on Instagram Live.
"But what I can give you is my wife Jools, she would love to be on the show. Go on Jools."
Dec joked: "Jools Oliver, first booking for 2025. Thanks, Jools, see you in Australia."
