Paris Fury confirms she's turned down 2023 I'm A Celeb stint

Bosses called her five days after she'd given birth

Author: Alex RossPublished 28th Sep 2023

Following the success of recent Netflix show At Home With The Furys, which featured heavyweight champion boxer Tyson Fury, his wife Paris, and the couple's seven children, it seems 33-year-old Paris is in high-demand.

As well as fans begging for a second series of the hit show, Paris has now revealed she was recently offered a place on the 2023 I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here line-up, despite just giving birth to her seventh child weeks ago.

Appearing on Thursday's (28th September) episode of Lorraine, Paris revealed ITV bosses called her just five days after she'd given birth to her new baby boy.

She told host Lorraine Kelly: "I actually got a call recently, just a couple of days ago.

"And they were like 'I know she's just had the baby' - he was about five days old - 'But would you consider coming to the jungle next in the next few weeks?' It's like 'no, no, no, no.'"

She added: "So these things are lovely opportunities. And I think that would be great to do if you have the time at that moment. But for me, I'm concentrating on the family. I never chose to be in the limelight. Tyson's career brought us all here. And I always sort of rolled with it and went with it and now I'm here."

Mum-of-seven Paris went on to speak about the success of their Netflix show, saying: "I like people to know me as me.

"And so, but my main priority has always been the kids and my family life. So to go away for weeks on end, I don't think would suit me. I don't think I would leave the family for so long. So it's not something I'm really like chasing down, but you never say never."

Check out all of the rumoured names for I'm A Celeb 2023:

Su-Elise Nash

Mis-Teeq singer Su-Elise Nash is reportedly set to follow in the footsteps of her band mate Sabrina Washington, who appeared in 2009. A source said: "Su was incredibly supportive of ­Sabrina's jungle experience and now she could get her own shot. There have been early talks for her to be considered. The reunion has reminded everyone just how much love there still is for Mis-Teeq."

Jeremy Clarkson

Thanks to the success of Clarkson's Farm, rumours were rife that Jeremy Clarkson is in demand with reality TV shows, with I'm A Celeb reportedly top of the list!

Jools Oliver

When hosts Ant and Dec invited TV chef Jamie Oliver to appear on the show, he quickly declined, saying: "Thanks for the offer boys, I would love to come on I'm A Celeb. "I think it's an amazing show, but honestly, you couldn't give me enough olive oil in the world to make me eat a witchetty grub or a kangaroo's a--e, no way."


However, he did nominate his wife Jools, adding: "But what I can give you is my wife Jools, she would love to be on the show. Go on Jools."

Nick Ferrari

Reports suggested bosses were determined to get TV and Radio host Nick Ferrari on the line-up in 2025, but he didn't appear. Maybe they'll go back with a new offer in 2026.

Olivia Attwood

As fans will know, reality star Olivia Attwood was forced to quit the 2022 series due to medical reasons, leaving her gutted. Olivia later hinted she could return for the 2023 series, admitting she'd had chats with bosses during an appearance on Loose Women.


Although she's in demand right now and very busy with radio and TV jobs, we have to admit we'd love to see Liv back in the jungle at some point!

Danny Dyer

Since Danny Dyer left his iconic role as Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter on EastEnders last year, he's been heavily rumoured for I'm A Celeb.


Of course, his family are no strangers to reality TV, with Danny's daughter Dani winning Love Island back in 2018.

Denise van Outen

The lovely Denise van Outen is no stranger to reality shows, having appeared on the likes of Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Gogglebox in recent years. Denise has previously admitted she turned down the offer in 2021, so could she appear in 2026?

Although they've not yet revealed his name, Paris and Tyson welcomed their seventh child into the world earlier this month, a healthy baby boy.

The happy couple revealed their news to OK! Magazine, confirming he was born on Monday 18th September at 2:29am, weighing 6lb 13oz.

Meanwhile, Paris appeared on Lorraine to promote her brand new book, titled Paris Fury: How Does She Do It.

Taking to social media to express her excitement at the release, she said: 'It’s finally publication day! I’m so excited today for you all to get to read my tips and life hacks i swear by with my busy lifestyle and big family. Pleasssse tag me in your favourite parts or if you see it on the shelves! I hope it helps other people in similar situations as Parents, Busy families, business women and just people trying to keep going.' (sic)

I'm A Celeb will return later in the year on ITV and STV.
