Your support makes all the difference.The I’m a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! cast have been busy welcoming their two new campmates to jungle life.
Love Island favourite Maura Higgins and broadcaster Reverend Richard Coles made a dramatic entrance on Thursday’s episode (21 November).
That said, the pair are not quite roughing it like the rest. Instead, they’re being treated to mugs of tea, bubble baths, and fluffy robes – unbenownst to their fellow stars, one of whom Higgins has a surprising and potentially awkward connection with.
Also during the episode, Coleen Rooney opened up about her relationship with Wayne Rooney and appeared to address his “difficult” cheating scandals in the past.
Among this year’s contestants are Coronation Street actor Alan Halsall and Strictly Come Dancing pro Oti Mabuse. Others include McFly singer Danny Jones, Barry McGuigan and Rooney, who is the show’s highest-paid star in its history.
New episodes of I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! air on ITV1 and ITVX every night at 9pm.

Dean is hoping for just one star... What’s the saying again? Aim low to avoid disappointment.
Third Bushtucker Trial in three days!
Can you believe it? Dean can’t catch a break... hopefully he fares better tonight than he did yesterday (zero stars...)
Lethal lab...
I hope that off-limits tea has given Dean some much-needed confidence going into the dreaded “Lethal Lab” challenge...
“I really want to smash this trial today... because I have to,” says the radio presenter.
Naugh-tea!
Dean has snuck some in-demand contraband into the camp... tea bags!
Oof!
Looks like the weather isn’t too sunny in Australia – it may as well be England!
'This does not look good!’
Maura seems not to impressed with her new digs...
Two new stars set to enter the I’m a Celeb jungle
To shake up the 2024 season even more, two late arrivals will enter the jungle on tonight’s episode of I’m a Celeb.
After lots of rumours and speculation, Love Island star Maura Higgins was confirmed as a late entry on last night’s episode.
Writer and broadcaster Reverend Richard Coles will also join the line up. “I have no clue what time it is, I don’t know where I am,” Higgins said upon arriving in Australia.
“In fact, I’ve done the opposite of preparing myself [for the jungle]. I’ve tried not to think about it, because when I think about it, I get so much anxiety.”
