I’m A Celebrity 2024 rumoured line-up: Danny Jones

Last week, reports claimed that McFly star Danny Jones has replaced boxer Tommy Fury on the show.

Tommy apparently pulled out of the new series with weeks to go.

A source has now said: “He’ll be keeping up with the proud tradition of I’m A Celebrity hunks who’ve been on the show over the years including Owen Warner and Joel Dommett.”

They added: “And he’ll fill the jungle hunk gap left by Tommy Fury after he declined the opportunity earlier this month.”

According to Betfred, Danny is the favourite to win the show with odds placed at 3/1.

One star reportedly joining the line-up is none other than Wagatha Christie herself, Coleen Rooney.

According to a source in The Sun, Coleen could spill all the Rebekah Vardy secrets on the 2024 series of the show. Not only that, but reports claim she’ll scoop the highest fee in the show’s history. It could even be more than Nigel Farage’s £1.5m last year.

A source said: “I’m A Celeb bosses have pulled off a huge coup getting Coleen for the jungle this year and the team are thrilled to have her on board.  She’s always been a massive fan of the show and loves watching it with her boys. ITV are over the moon that the stars have aligned this year and she can fit it in. The series is set to be one of the best yet.

“Coleen has a huge fanbase and she won massive plaudits for her classy handling of the Wagatha Christie case. She’s excited to show fans a different side to her and prove she can survive without her creature comforts.”

They then added: “The campfire chats are set to be bombshells as there is so much she could lift the lid on, from all the drama of the Wagatha trial to her turbulent marriage to Wayne and his football career.”

According to Betfred, Coleen has odds of 8/1 to win the jungle.

Loose Women legend Jane Moore has apparently signed the dotted line for this year’s series.

According to the Daily Mail, the journalist will head Down Under following her split from husband of 20 years, Gary Farrow.

A source claimed: “Jane is really excited for the challenge of I’m A Celeb. She’s been separated from Gary now for two years and it’s about time she set herself a new goal, to really experience what she’s made of.

“It’s been a transformative few years for Jane and doing the show, which will be completely out of her comfort zone, is something she’s really looking forward to. As a journalist, she thrives among people and is hoping to make new friends in camp as well as share stories from her interesting life with whoever else is there.”

Odds on Jane winning have been placed at 50/1.

“This year is a decade since she left The X Factor. So she felt the time was right to return to the TV spotlight. The amazing reception to the N-Dubz reunion tour really helped build her confidence.”

I’m A Celebrity 2024: Maura Higgins

Former Love Island star Maura Higgins has become the final star on the rumoured line-up list.

A source has said: “With Tommy Fury pulling out it gave show bosses the opportunity to look at other Love Island stars and Maura stood out as the perfect candidate.

“She’ll bringing a bit of glamour to the jungle and make a brilliant campmate because she’s got a great sense of humour and is bound to get on with everyone.”

A spokesperson for ITV said: “Any names suggested for I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! are just speculation.”

Maura has a 5/1 chance of winning.

Commenting on the latest odds, Betfred’s Kayley Cornelius said: “With only days to go until the new series of I’m A Celebrity kicks off, one celeb already seems to be leading the pack before even setting foot in camp. McFly star Danny Jones has struck the right chord with viewers and punters alike, currently topping the betting markets with 3/1 odds to be crowned the next king of the jungle.

“Other early favourites include former Love Island star Maura Higgins, Corrie actor Alan Halsall, and internet personality GK Barry, all close behind at 5/1, while the much-anticipated Coleen Rooney following at 8/1. With one of ITV’s strongest casts in recent years, it’s shaping up to be a tight competition, and a close call on who will take the crown!”
