Ever since it was confirmed that I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! will return later this year with a brand new location, there’s been a whole lot of speculation about which famous faces will be taking part in the show.

Jessie J, Vernon Kay and Maura Higgins are just some of the names that been rumoured so far, and now another HUGE TV star has been added to the list.

Following the cancellation of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, with the last season airing early next year, Rob Kardashian has been tipped to take part in the 2020 UK series.

Rob, who shares three-year-old daughter Dream with ex-girlfriend Blac Chyna, has had his odds slashed from 6/1 to 5/1 as ITV bosses put together a star-studded line-up.

"Keeping Up With The Kardashians may be over but it won't be long before the famous family are back on our screens and there's every chance Rob ends up on I'm A Celeb later this year," said Alex Apati from bookies Ladbrokes.

But Rob isn't the only KUWTK star that's been rumoured for this year's I'm A Celeb as Kourtney Kardashian's ex Scott Disick has had his odds slashed too.

Check out the rumoured line-up for I'm A Celeb 2020 below:

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?

Announcing the new series of I'm A Celeb, ITV revealed that the show will be broadcast live every night from Gwrych Castle in North Wales - and also confirmed that Ant and Dec will be back to host the show once again.

ITV say of the show, "As on the regular series, viewers will see the celebrities undertake gruelling trials and fun-filled challenges to win food and treats in the lead up to one of them being crowned, for the first time ever, King or Queen of the Castle."

Richard Cowles, Director of Entertainment at ITV Studios, added, "We pulled out all the stops to try and make the series happen in Australia. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and despite us looking at many different contingencies, it became apparent that it just wasn’t possible for us to travel and make the show there.

"However, we are all really excited about a UK version of I’m A Celebrity. While it will certainly be different producing the show from the UK, the same tone and feel will remain. Our celebrities will probably have to swap shorts for thermals but they can still look forward to a basic diet of rice and beans and plenty of thrills and surprises along the way."

I'm A Celeb is due to air later in the year.
