Kiosk Kev, the stern-faced keeper of the outback shed on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, has a life far beyond the ITV show. Known for his role in the Dingo Dollar Challenge, where he either rewards or denies treats to contestants, Kev—real name Mark Herlarr—is actually a life coach, business advisor, and lime farmer.
Herlarr, who lives in Toowoomba near Queensland where the show is filmed, also founded an online drinks company called Manifest Kombucha. His television appearances extend beyond I'm A Celebrity; in 2017, he was a contestant on Australian Survivor, where 24 castaways test their survival skills in the Samoan jungle.
On Instagram, Herlarr detailed his credentials: '35 years married to same amazing woman, 40 years in business. Built many businesses... employed over fifty staff with millions of dollars of revenue. Bought and sold over forty properties and amassed a multi-millionaire portfolio.' He also noted he has been recognised as a spiritual mentor, having been made a guru of an ashram in Nepal.
Herlarr has spoken about helping others achieve wealth and enlightenment, saying: 'Over the years I’ve personally helped many people to become more wealthy or put them on a path of greater enlightenment. By just tweaking some ideas in the right direction... I’ve also helped many that needed some personal advice to help them get out of personal hardship.'
