Vogue Williams and Tom Read Wilson are set to join the I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! jungle as latecomers, and according to a celebrity PR specialist, their pay packets will reflect their popularity. The pair were shown in a teaser for the ITV reality show on Tuesday, joining an existing line-up that includes Angry Ginge, Ruby Wax and Shona McGarty.
Celebrity PR Specialist Kayley Cornelius, speaking on behalf of Prime Casino, estimated that Tom Read Wilson's fee is likely in the region of £60,000 to £80,000. While the Celebs Go Dating star is 'much-loved', Cornelius noted he does not have the same social clout as Angry Ginge or Aitch, who was previously revealed as the highest earner in this series.
In contrast, Vogue Williams is expected to command a six-figure salary, potentially matching or surpassing Angry Ginge's reported £100,000 fee. Cornelius said the TV presenter and podcast host brings 'a broader, more mainstream appeal' and is a 'recognised name' with a 'loyal audience', making her a valuable signing for guaranteeing steady viewer interest.
Vogue, who is married to Spencer Matthews, admitted she is ready to cause 'a bit of mischief' in camp, likening the experience to the high jinx on The Traitors. She also confessed that keeping her jungle news secret from her children was difficult, as they 'have a bigger mouth' than she does.
Tom Read Wilson, meanwhile, expressed a desire to befriend rapper Aitch, describing him as a 'modern poet' and hoping they bond over their love of the English language. He admitted his main worry about the jungle is missing his weekend champagne, saying it will feel like 'a very, very long week'.
