Kelly Brook is set to earn a reported £300,000 for her appearance on the upcoming series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!, despite previously vowing never to take part in the show. The 45-year-old model and presenter is rumoured to be one of the highest-paid celebrities in this year's line-up, which begins on Sunday, November 16.
According to reports, Brook, who is already worth an estimated £7.5 million from her modelling career, will pocket the eye-watering sum for her stint in the jungle. She rose to fame as a lads' mag favourite in the Noughties and was crowned the 'world's sexiest woman' by FHM in 2005. Her career has since expanded into presenting, acting, and radio.
Brook joins a star-studded cast including Jack Osbourne, who is thought to be the highest earner with a reported fee of upwards of £500,000. Other contestants include comedians Ruby Wax and Eddie Kadi, Emmerdale star Lisa Riley, Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp, sports presenter Alex Scott, EastEnders actress Shona McGarty, rapper Aitch, and football content creator Angryginge.
Brook's decision to enter the jungle marks a significant change of heart. In 2018, she said she would rather work in her local pub than appear on the show, stating she didn't want to eat 'eyeballs or sheep testicles'. However, a source told The Sun on Sunday that show bosses have been pursuing her for years and believe she could be their 'sexiest contestant ever'.
