Is Phillip Scofield joining I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here?
One person who doesn’t seem likely to head to the Australian jungle anytime soon is Phillip Schofield.
The former This Morning presenter made his TV comeback this week, 16 months after stepping down from the show and ITV following his admission of an “unwise, but not illegal” affair with a younger male colleague.
Phillip returned to screens on Channel 5’s brand-new series Cast Away, where he finds himself stranded on a desert island, tasked with building his own camp and foraging for food.
Armed with camera gear, the show gives him the chance to reflect on his life and the events of the past 16 months.
The upcoming series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is just weeks away, and there’s already a buzz on betting sites about which celebrities might take part.
Ant and Dec are set to return as hosts of the ITV show, and several stars from the worlds of TV, music, and sport have been rumored to join this year’s lineup.
One of the latest celebrities linked to the Australian jungle is Loose Women star Jane Moore. She is currently listed as Evens on I’m A Celebrity betting sites to participate this year.
A TV insider told MailOnline: “Jane is really excited about the challenge of I’m A Celeb. As a journalist, she enjoys being around people and is looking forward to making new friends in camp while sharing stories from her fascinating life with the others.”
If Jane does take part, she’ll likely bond with fellow contestants, but she’s not the only Loose Women star rumored to join season 24.
GK Barry, a podcaster who recently joined the Loose Women panel, has odds of 6/4 to head to Australia. According to The Sun, the YouTuber—real name Grace Keeling—turned down an offer from Strictly Come Dancing in favor of the jungle adventure.
Olivia Attwood-Dack, another recent addition to the Loose Women team, is no stranger to I’m A Celebrity. The TV presenter is 15/8 to join this year’s cast, after revealing she has “unfinished business” in the jungle following her brief stint in 2022, which ended after just two days due to health reasons.
In a conversation with The Sun, she said: “The jungle will be completed at some point, one thousand percent. I can’t rest until I’ve finished it.”
However, Olivia hinted that she might not return just yet, suggesting this year’s series could be a bit too soon for her.
