Queen of the Jungle Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo has confirmed her exciting new role on This Morning.

The Made In Chelsea star, 23, filmed a short segment for Friday’s show introducing herself to viewers and revealing her excitement at joining the daytime programme.

Standing on a snowy mountaintop, she gushed:” From January I’m going to be joining the This Morning family and I’m so happy to be part of the team!”

However, anyone wanting exact details about Toff’s role will be disappointed, as she declined to reveal just why This Morning has sent her off to the slopes.

Instead she promised that all would be revealed in the New Year!

Eamonn Holmes, meanwhile, revealed Toff’s new This Morning segment was called ‘Toff of the Mountain’ – if you can figure out anything from that!

Intriguing!

Whatever she’s doing, viewers were thrilled to have her on board!

Toff’s joining the team just as Rylan Clark-Neal is taking a break from his showbiz correspondent role, leaving everyone wondering if she’s the new showbiz correspondent…

After Toff’s clip was aired, he joked: “Out with the old, in with the new! That’s how it goes around here!”

Rylan has promised, however, he’ll be back on This Morning in the New Year, saying he’s just taking a bit of time out to focus on himself.

“It’s not forever,” he said. “You have to look out for yourself, don’t you? So I’m taking a bit of time.”

Toff, who won I’m A Celebrity earlier this month, revealed this week that she’d been filming a secret project for This Morning in Switzerland.

“Snuggled up in the chalet after a long day skiing!!! So fun,” she captioned one Instagram pic.

“Filming something so fun for @thismorning. I’m so excited I could burst #ToffOnTour,” she wrote in another.

After Toff’s short clip aired on This Morning today, the show tweeted from its official account: “Welcome to the family!”

Toff replied: “The best Christmas present I could have wished for! Here’s to 2018!”
