However, the Britain’s Got Talent hosts failed to confirm whether Selling Sunset star Christine Quinn is likely to join.

Who is taking part in I’m A Celebrity 2020?

As ever, there are plenty of cast rumours circulating over who will take part in the upcoming series.

Coronation Street star Beverley Callard was rumoured to be one of the first famous faces being lined up for a spot on the reality show.

However, according to reports, she may have to pull out following a botched hip operation.

An insider told The Sun: “Beverley was signed up for the show when it was still planned to be in Australia. She was so excited to be able to come on board.

“Obviously, with the surgery, she’s had complications no one could have foreseen. There’s no way she’d able to take part in the show and fully experience it.”

Vernon Kay, Lucy Fallon, Eric Cantona and AJ Pritchard are reportedly joining this year’s line-up.

Meanwhile, the celebrity line-up, as always, will go through gruelling trials and challenges.

In the end, the celeb who wins over the voting public will have a new title. For the first time in the show’s 18-year history, they will be the King or Queen of the Castle.

ITV Studios’ Director of Entertainment, Richard Cowles, said: “The Australian jungle is such an integral part of the show it was a big challenge to find a UK location where we could continue to deliver what viewers love about I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

“But Gwrych will definitely do that; the Castle sits in an amazing and atmospheric setting on a hillside overlooking the Irish Sea.”
