Model Leomie Anderson has become the fourth star to land in Australia for I'm A Celebrity, following Wayne Rooney, Ade Adepitan and social media star Sharky.
Stars Arrive Down Under
The ITV jungle show returns in a few days, and contestants have begun arriving in Australia. Wayne Rooney was among the first, with the former footballer reportedly one of the show's most expensive signings ever.
Sharky, whose real name is Sharmarke Mohamud, also arrived in Brisbane. Bosses are said to be hoping he will emulate the success of last year's winner AngryGinge.
Adepitan's Arrival and Return of Sam Thompson
Ade Adepitan was the third to arrive. Joking, as arriving stars do, that he isn't really there for the show, the former wheelchair basketball player said: "I am here to advise on the 2027 Australian tap-dancing festival. I am here to dance." Asked what he would miss most, he said: "Time with my family."
Sam Thompson, 34, is returning to the Jungle this year, fronting the spin-off show Unpacked alongside former Mirror journalist turned Capital FM presenter Kemi Rodgers. Thompson said he was stunned to be asked to present the programme.
Coleen's Revenge Plan and Wayne's Motivation
Wayne's wife Coleen has vowed to get "revenge" on her husband. Insiders say Coleen intended to "blow the voting app up" as she votes for him to do a succession of Bushtucker trials. Friends say she will take to the task with "utmost determination," adding: "They are all rooting for Wayne to do as many as possible - its only right after they all voted for her. She is laughing how she wants her revenge."
Wayne has a lot to live up to after Coleen's performance in the jungle two years ago, but he is determined to give it a good go. The former England captain is understood to be particularly keen to impress his four sons - Kai, 16, Klay, 13, Kit, ten, and Cass, eight - by taking on the trials.
