Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here is back, with a new raft of famous faces entering the jungle.

Football manager Harry Redknapp, Torchwood star John Barrowman and X Factor favourite Fleur East lead this year’s contestants, with Noel Edmonds joining the intrepid adventurers (for a reported £500,000 payday) as the series' final contestant.

James McVey, who found fame as part of boy band The Vamps, also appears on the show, alongside soap stars Sair Khan (Coronation Street), Rita Simons (EastEnders) and Malique Thompson-Dwyer (Hollyoaks).

Who else features? You can see all eleven of this year’s jungle-ready celebrities – including a few renowned British TV personalities – in their camping gear below.

Speaking about his decision to sign up to the long-running reality series, former Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham manager Redknapp, 71, said: “My wife thinks I am mad. She has seen the show and she has told me I should watch it before I do it.”

Declan Donnelly is returning to host the 18th series alongside Holly Willoughby. She replaces Ant McPartlin who has taken a hiatus from presenting to battle a number of personal problems. Previous winners include Christopher Biggins, Westlife singer Kian Egan and Made In Chelsea’s Georgia “Toff” Toffolo.

I’m A Celebrity 2018 continues daily at 9pm on ITV.
