We’re now just days away from the latest season of I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here! – and some of this year’s rumoured stars have now started touching down in Australia.
ITV is yet to confirm which celebrities will be taking part in the upcoming season, but on Monday, Wayne Rooney was seen arriving at Brisbane Airport, following rumours that he is this year’s star booking for the long-running reality show.
The former England star was seen pushing a trolley through the airport, where he was flanked by photographers, having boarded a flight from Manchester the previous day.
Metro has also reported that Gavin & Stacey actor Joanna Page has made it to Brisbane before the new series gets underway.
Who is in the cast of I’m A Celebrity 2026?
ITV previously insisted that “any names suggested for I’m A Celebrity are just speculation” after a list of 12 stars reported to be heading into the jungle was published by The Sun.
- Ade Adepitan
- AJ Odudu
- Chloe Burrows
- Claire Sweeney
- Jack Skipper
- Joanna Page
- Leigh Francis
- Leomie Anderson
- Mariella Frostrup
- Ricky Wilson
- Sharmarke ‘Sharky’ Mohamud
- Wayne Rooney
Wayne and Joanna’s respective arrivals in Australia come amid reports that producers have had to think on their feet after Ricky Wilson’s flight was cancelled.
According to The Sun, Ricky was supposed to get to Australia on Wednesday morning, but bosses were left “scrambling” to reschedule after his original flight was cancelled.
ITV had no comment when contacted by HuffPost UK.
I’m A Celebrity returns to our screens on Monday 16 November at 9pm on ITV1, slightly later in the year than usual due to the broadcaster’s coverage of the UEFA Nations League.
Next year, a new I’m A Celebrity spin-off is also due to air on ITV1, which will see pairs of famous contestants roughing it together in the Canadian wilderness.
