The leaves are turning brown, Halloween is over and out, which can only mean one thing – I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! is nearly back.

As we get into the autumn months, it’s time to start thinking about who we’d like to see join the I’m A Celeb 2025 line-up, with all the latest rumours picking up steam.

Already, soap legends and Premier League footballers have been floated around, and a huge Love Island star is even in the whispers to join them as a potential campmate.

It’s not long until the new series kicks off, with Ant and Dec joining a fresh cast of celebs hoping to follow on from Danny Jones to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle.

Last year’s winner was joined in the jungle by stars including Coleen Rooney, GK Barry, Oti Mabuse, Melvin Odoom, Tulisa and Rev. Richard Coles.

When is I’m A Celebrity 2025?

We finally have an official start date from ITV for when I’m A Celebrity will be back!

Sharing a first-look festive themed trailer for the show, ITV encouraged fans to set their calendars for the most wonderful time of the year.

The teaser, featuring Ant and Dec, confirmed the highly-anticipated series will kick off from Sunday, November 16.

Who’s rumoured for the I’m A Celebrity 2025 line-up?

The rumours have already been flying about who could feature in the 2025 I’m A Celebrity line-up, including soap legends, sports stars, and more.

Here are the latest potential campmates.

Jack Osbourne

Jack Osbourne is reportedly set to join I’m A Celebrity with the ‘full support’ of mum Sharon and sister Kelly.

A source told The Sun: ‘Jack is very likely to discuss Ozzy, which will be an incredibly moving moment for the campmates and for viewers and fans of the adored rocker.’

The insider added that jungle bosses are ‘thrilled to have bagged Jack’.

They said: ‘He’s been a star in his own right since shooting to fame on The Osbournes 23 years ago.’

Ruby Wax

Comedic icon Ruby Wax is in advanced talks to take part in I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here 2025.

The 72-year-old found fame as a brash comedian and interviewer through her celebrity interviews and documentaries in the 1990s.

A source told The Sun: ‘Ruby’s a proper TV legend and adds real gravitas to this year’s line-up.

‘She’s interviewed some of the biggest stars in the world so will have no problem getting to know her fellow campmates. It will make great TV for viewers.’

Conor Benn

Conor Benn is also said to be in talks to follow in his father’s footsteps in the jungle.

The former world champion, 29, could enter the jungle just days after his rematch with rival Chris Eubank Jnr, 36, set to take place in London on November 15.

The duo will take to the ring at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium again after Eubank Jr won the first fight.

Sources have suuggested that Conor, whose father is boxer Nigel Benn, could be a late entry into camp.

Vogue Williams

Earlier this month, reports suggested that Vogue Williams has signed up for this year’s series.

The TV personality, 40, could be following in her husband Spencer Matthew’s footsteps 10 years after he was in the jungle.

A source told The Sun: ‘Vogue is one of the most glam signings I’m A Celeb has landed in years and they are thrilled.

‘Her star is massively on the rise and this will be one of her biggest gigs yet. She is really fun and gets on with everyone, so bosses reckon she will be a hit with viewers.’

Kelly Brook

In a surprising U-turn after formerly saying she would never do the show, Kelly Brook could be joining the cast of I’m A Celebrity.

Multiple reports have suggested that the heart FM presenter has agreed a deal to join the ITV series.

Sources have suggested that having appeared as a panelist for Loose Women, she is already a familiar face with audiences.

It remains to be seen though whether she will be eating her words, along with some other disgusting things in a bush tucker trial…

Aitch

UK rapper Aitch is another name who is expected to be participating in this year’s series.

The 25-year-old is an award-winning musician who boasts more than six million followers on social media.

The move to bring him aboard could be to do with the fact that ITV bosses view him as appealing to a younger audience.

A source told The Sun: ‘Aitch has a massive following among teenagers and 20-somethings and bosses will be hoping he’ll bring a new generation of fans.

‘He’ll make for great viewing as he has a plethora of stories from his time in the music industry.

‘He’s also known for having a sharp wit which will keep his campmates and viewers entertained.’

Tommy Fury

Love Island star, boxer and Molly-Mae’s other half – but Tommy Fury could soon add another string to his bow as his name has entered the rumour mill for this year’s show.

Fury was heavily rumoured for last year’s series, but reportedly turned it down in favour of a boxing fight. What’s more, Fury previously expressed an interest in going Down Under.

‘I’m a Celeb is an amazing show and it’s something I want to do in the future,’ he told The Mirror last year.

‘At the end of the day I am what I am, I’m a fighter and I’ve been doing it since I was a kid.’

Angry Ginge

Social media megastar Angry Ginge is another name rumoured to be in the upcoming series.

With over three million fans across TikTok and Instagram, he’d certainly have the following – and that’s without mentioning his man of the match performance at Soccer Aid this year.

‘ITV bosses always like to have a social media superstar on their cast, especially after GK Barry proved such a success last year,’ a source told The Sun.

‘Angry Ginge has bags of personality and was really friendly to everyone at Soccer Aid this year. He made a great impression.’

Lisa Riley

Emmerdale legend Lisa Riley – or Mandy Dingle to soap fans – is reportedly in talks after years of turning down I’m A Celeb.

‘I love playing Mandy so much, that’s why I keep turning down other good roles. They offer me I’m A Celebrity every year and every year I say no,’ she revealed in a chat with the Daily Star.

She teased that a ‘milestone like my 50th’ could tempt her, and she’ll celebrate the big birthday next summer.

According to The Sun, she was in ‘advanced talks’ last month, while her Emmerdale audience makes her a ‘perfect’ campmate for ITV.

Shona McGarty

It seems 2025 could be a big I’m A Celeb lineup for soap fans, with Shona McGarty also among the rumoured names.

The EastEnders actress, who left Albert Square in 2024 after 16 years on the BBC show, is also said to have been in ‘advanced talks’ back in May, according to The Sun.

The actress would follow in the footsteps of fellow EastEnders alumni such as Jacqueline Jossa and Charlie Brooks, who both went on to win the show – so no pressure, Shona!

Jools Oliver

Jamie Oliver has ruled out ever heading into the jungle, but the celebrity chef’s wife Jools is a possibility.

Late last year, the Naked Chef chatted to I’m A Celeb hosts Ant and Dec on an Instagram live and weighed in on the possibility.

He told the pair: ‘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.’

‘But what I can give you is my wife Jools, she would love to be on the show. Go on Jools,’ he added.

‘We would take Jools,’ Ant quipped, while Dec joked: ‘Jools Oliver, first booking for 2025. Thanks, Jools, see you in Australia.’

Jack Grealish

Jack Grealish has also chatted to Ant and Dec on a video call, and the Everton forward admitted he would ‘absolutely to do’ the show.

‘It’s a show that I’ve watched for years since I was little. A show that I love,’ he said. ‘I don’t know how I’d get on in there, I don’t think I’d be the best to be honest, but I’d give it a go.’

At the moment, there’s no suggestion talks are underway (he’ll be a bit busy with the Premier League campaign) but Jack sounds like one for the future!

Patsy Palmer

Earlier this year, EastEnders legend Patsy Palmer – who played Bianca Jackson – was given odds of 2/1 to swap her life in the US for a stint in the Australian jungle.

Betway Casino expected her to be among the campmates later this year, following in the footsteps of Walford stars turned winners Joe Swash, Jacqueline Jossa and Charlie Brooks.

As well as a return to Albert Square earlier this year, Patsy has explored reality TV with appearances on The Masked Singer, Dancing On Ice and Celebrity Big Brother since 2020.

Last year’s I’m A Celebrity series proved to be massively popular with audiences.

In the end, Danny Jones, the singer from the band McFly, won the show.

He was crowned King of the Jungle after beating out Coleen Rooney and Reverend Richard Coles, who finished in second and third place, respectively.

Is there going to be another series of I’m A Celebrity All Stars?

Good news – ITV has confirmed series 2 of I’m A Celebrity All Stars is coming in 2026.

The broadcaster announced plans for another season of the spin-off earlier this month, with some of the most memorable campmates from the past set to return to the show.

They’ll be back in South Africa for fresh challenges and Bushtucker Trials, with Ant and Dec keeping an eye on all the action.

This time round, ITV has confirmed ‘the public will have the power to decide who is crowned the ultimate legend’ for 2026 with the final vote cast ‘in a live grand final broadcast direct from London’.

Dec said: ‘Having a live final is an exciting addition to the new series with the viewers choosing their IAC Legend and we’ve heard some of the new trials are truly epic, even by I’m A Celeb standards!’
