I’m A Celeb finally announces two latecomers who will enter jungle soon

I’m A Celeb finally announces two latecomers who will enter jungle soon

ITV viewers have finally been introduced to this season's final two campmates

Ever since the official line-up of this year's edition of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! line-up was released, fans have been asking the exact same question: Where are this year's latecomers?

Now, it's clear that ITV viewers have been absolutely loving the series so far.

This season features the likes of 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.

Radio DJ Melvin Odoom, Coronation Street star Alan Halsall, and internet sensation GK Barry have also joined the mix.

However, despite the excitement over the 10 campmates we've seen Down Under so far, I'm A Celeb fans have been extremely keen on finally meeting this year's two latecomers.

Now, any seasoned fan of the hit reality TV show will know that it starts off with 10 contestants - the ones we've met in the camp already - before the final two contestants join the rest of the stars as latecomers.

Well, the wait is now over as Love Island icon, Maura Higgins, and former BBC radio host, Reverend Richard Coles, are finally joining the gang!

At the end of tonight's episode (20 Nov), the pair were introduced.

Maura has previously spoken out about her upcoming appearance on the show, telling The Mirror how she’d jetted to Australia after a blow-out in Las Vegas.

"I have no clue what time it is, I don't know where I am," she joked.

"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."

She added: "I just don't want to let people down, because everyone's been DMing me, saying 'Oh my God, I hope you're doing the show'.

"I don't want to back out of the trials and be the biggest wimp in the camp."

As for what we can expect from her I’m A Celeb stint, she says she’s 'matured' a lot since her Love Island days, but still has a 'potty mouth'.

"I'm still the same kind of girl but I'm not going to go in and annihilate anyone," Maura said.

"However, if someone gets on my nerves, I'm not really one to hold it in. I do speak my mind. If someone patronised me, I get really irritated. Like, that's one thing that really drives me mad."

Last year's late arrivals were Italian jockey Frankie Dettori, and former professional boxer Tony Bellew, while 2022 saw Tory politician Matt Hancock, and comedian Seann Walsh as the final two additions to the line-up.
