Kelly Brook is a model and actress, and has appeared in a number of films and TV programmes including Survival Island, Smallville, Celebrity Juice and Britain’s Got Talent.

She recently starred alongside her husband Jeremy Parisi in Celebrity Race Across the World.

The radio DJ had always vowed to never take part in I’m a Celebrity, but had a change of heart after running the London Marathon, admitting the race made her realise she can do things she never thought possible.

“I have said I will never do I’m A Celebrity… several times. I didn’t think it was ever in me to do the challenges and bushtucker trials. But since I have been with my husband, we have done a few things that I’ve surprised myself by,” she explained.

“We did Race Across the World and I ran the London marathon this year – two things I never thought I had in me. I’m such a fan of the show that I thought, ‘Maybe I could do it, maybe I could cope.’ I won’t know unless I try and so I am going to throw myself into it.”

Kemp has shared that his son, Roman, is jealous that he’s going into the jungle. Roman took part on the show in 2019 and came third – and has offered some advice to his father.

“He told me to go in and enjoy it all,” Kemp said. “He said it’s the most fun he has ever had and he said, ‘I am really jealous; I know how much fun you are going to have.'”

Just as Martin voted for Roman to do the “worst trials”, Roman has promised to do the same!

Over his career, he has hosted the MOBO Awards, as well as the official red carpet show for BET International and BET Africa in Los Angeles, and the main stage of the Afro Nation Festivals across the world.

In 2023, he appeared on Strictly Come Dancing and was paired with Karen Hauer.

Speaking of taking part on I’m a Celebrity, Eddie said: “I have had a few friends who have done it like Oti Mabuse and Babatunde. They have all come back with such great stories. You only live once and I said ‘yes’ immediately.

“Raising a daughter is a beautiful thing and my daughter is extremely excited. It’s going to be a story for her every single day. And if I were to be crowned ‘King of the Jungle’, my daughter would be the proudest daughter in the world.”

Alex Scott is a former professional footballer turned pundit, and has been the presenter of Football Focus since 2021.

A self-described introvert, Alex shared she will need to “push” herself to “speak out around all of the different and big personalities”.

She explained: “Not going into myself for being the shy one will be my big challenge. People see you on TV and they assume you are outgoing, that loud person, but take me to red carpets or events and I am the one in the corner going, ‘Talk to me, please give me a plus one so I don’t have to be that person who walks in on my own’. It’s going to be a challenge.”

Despite having only ever been away from social media for a week, the content creator knew he couldn’t turn down the opportunity to appear on the show when he was first approached.

“I’ve watched the show on the sofa with my mum ever since I was a kid,” he said. “To take part in it this year is something I couldn’t pass up on.

“But my whole life is spent on the phone. I’ve been away once for a week. And so, two to three weeks without it is going to be very educational to see how I will do!”

Jack Osbourne is a media personality and the youngest child of Sharon Osbourne and the late Ozzy Osbourne. Over the years, he has starred in a number of programmes fronted by his family, most notably The Osbournes in the early 2000s.

Despite feeling nervous about what lies ahead in the jungle, Jack said he is looking forward to throwing himself into the I’m a Celebrity life.

He said: “I definitely had to think about doing this programme. It’s an absolute commitment but the real reason why it is popular is people sit at home saying, ‘Could I do that?’, so I think a lot of why I’ve said ‘yes’ is the intrigue and how would I survive that? I am very nervous though!”

But the comedy legend is looking to show the public the “real her” while in the I’m a Celebrity camp.

“It hasn’t actually sunk in that I am doing this but I am really looking forward to meeting my fellow campmates,” Ruby said. “In my personas before, I looked quite aggressive and pushy, and I think it was just my nerves. I am not aggressive, it’s the way I talk. I’m not confrontational and it looked like I was.”

Aitch, real name Harrison James Armstrong, is a rapper who rose to fame in 2018. He released his debut studio album in 2022, which reached number two on the UK Albums Chart and has since released 20 Top 10 singles in the UK.

The rapper is hoping to inspire young viewers that it is possible to achieve anything in life as well as raise awareness about Down Syndrome, a genetic disorder his sister Gracie has.

Aitch admitted he cancelled gigs to take part in the show, and said: “On a personal Harrison level, this show is something I grew up watching in our house. It would almost be disrespectful to say ‘no’. Why would I not do it?

“On an Aitch level, I feel like I have got this calling to raise awareness for Down Syndrome and I feel that’s the perfect place. Also, you don’t always want to be stuck in the same world forever.

“You can branch out and do other things. You don’t have to stick to the code (rap world), because you think that’s cool. I did have to cancel some gigs for it. But you are never going to branch out if you do the same thing all the time.”
