I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! is finally back on our screens once again after what's felt like an absolute eternity of waiting.

Earlier this week, ITV dropped the official starting line-up, featuring the likes Coleen Rooney, McFly singer Danny Jones, Strictly Come Dancing legend Oti Mabuse, Loose Women star Jane Moore, Radio 1's Dean McCullough, N-Dubz legend Tulisa and boxing promoter Barry McGuigan.

The likes of Radio DJ Melvin Odoom, Coronation Street star Alan Halsall, and internet sensation GK Barry will also be joining the the gang Down Under.

I'm A Celeb fans were also quick to point out that in the rumoured line-up which came to light some weeks back, Love Island icon Maura Higgins was named as another star who would be joining the mix.

Additionally, the first line-up also saw former BBC radio host, Reverend Richard Coles, announced as one of the celebs set to take on the challenge this year and he was also missing from yesterday's cast photo.

We're hoping those final two will be this year's 'late comers' meeting the 10 already-announced stars in the jungle.

ITV viewers are also super keen on finding out just how much cash each of the celebs will take home for their stint on the show and many aren't aware on a little-known rule which could see some of the campmates leaving empty-handed.

Now, any seasoned viewers will know by now that any celeb given the title of Queen or King of the Jungle will receive a crown, staff and the chance to sit on the iconic I'm A Celeb throne.

However, it's not as common knowledge that whoever does take home the victory won't actually be going home with a cushy cash prize.

The reason for the decision is because ITV has decided the contestants will only receive a flat fee for appearing on the show.

According to Metro, the only condition for receiving such a fee is that campmates must remain in the jungle for at least 72 hours.

This means that, whether a celebrity wins or not, they won't be taking home a lump sum cash prize, but will instead leave the jungle with a pre-agreed set fee under the condition of making it through the first three days.

And if they don't spend at least three days in the jungle, they leave with nothing.

While the celebs are paid a flat fee to appear on I'm A Celeb, the amount reportedly varies from contestant to contestant with the number going up depending on how famous the star in question is.

Coleen is rumoured to have received the highest fee ever to take part having been hailed the 'biggest deal in I’m A Celebrity history'.

She will reportedly rake in a staggering £5,000,000 for her stint on the show, per Metro, which is millions more than the still-mammoth £1.5 million Nigel Farage got last year.

Tyla has previously reached out to ITV for comment.
