Kelly Brook’s I’m A Celebrity pay revealed – and how she compares to campmates

Kelly Brook is rumoured to be one of the highest paid celebs on this year’s series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! – here’s what the cast of 2025 could be set to earn

Kelly Brooks’ pay cheque for appearing on I’m A Celebrity is out of the bag – and it’s an eye watering sum.

The 45-year-old is rumoured to be one of the highest paid celebs on this year’s series, which kicks off on Sunday November 16. According to reports, the model turned TV presenter and actress could stand to pocket as much as £300,000 for her turn on the ITV show.

She is already said to be worth £7.5 million from her career as a model, which began when she was 16, and led to her becoming a lads’ mag favourite in the Noughties. In 2005, she was crowned the ‘world’s sexiest woman’ by FHM.

Huge ad campaigns, an appearance in a Pulp music video, and presenting stints on shows like The Big Breakfast, TFI Friday and Celebrity Love Island followed. Kelly, who trained at the prestigious Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts, has also starred in the West End, as well as film and TV in the likes of The Italian Job, Smallville, Midsomer Murders, Celebrity Juice and Keith Lemon: The Movie.

These days she’s better known for presenting the drive time show on Heart Radio and being a Loose Women panellist. But she’s no stranger to a reality show having appeared on Strictly Come Dancing, The Great Stand Up To Cancer Great British Bake Off, The Masked Dancer and Celebrity Race Around The World with her Italian model and actor husband Jeremy Parisi, 40.

This weekend, Kelly – who says she’s ‘currently on a nature retreat’ on her Instagram page – will join nine other famous faces heading into the jungle. Then, as is I’m A Celeb tradition, two latecomers will arrive in camp a few days later. Though this is yet to be officially confirmed it’s said they are Irish broadcaster Vogue Williams, 40, and Celebs Go Dating legend Tom Read Wilson, 39.

Also heading Down Under are comedians Ruby Wax, 72, and Eddie Kadi, 42, Emmerdale icon Lisa Riley, 49, Spandau Ballet legend Martin Kemp, 64, Sports presenter Alex Scott, 41, EastEnders star Shona McGarty, 34, Manchester rapper Aitch, 25, and football content creator Angryginge, 24.

But the biggest name on this year’s line-up is thought to be Jack Osbourne, son of the late Black Sabbath star Ozzy Osbourne, who could be set to pocket upwards of £500,000 for his stint on the ITV show, according to Finance Monthly.

Giving their verdict on who will earn top bucks on I’m A Celeb this year, the publication said: “Household names like Jack Osbourne, son of rock legend Ozzy, are tipped to command upwards of £500,000, leveraging his reality TV pedigree and recent career resurgence for maximum draw.

“Kelly Brook, the model-turned-presenter, could pocket around £300,000, her glamorous profile ensuring tabloid frenzy from day one. Sports stars such as Alex Scott, fresh off football punditry stints, typically land £200,000 to £400,000 deals, blending athletic appeal with broad audience pull.”

It added: “Mid-tier entrants like Vogue Williams and Martin Kemp hover in the £150,000 to £250,000 bracket, offering reliable entertainment without breaking the bank. Emerging faces, including Emmerdale’s Shona McGarty and podcaster Tom Read Wilson, likely settle for £100,000 to £150,000, viewing the exposure as a gateway to bigger gigs.” The Mirror has contacted ITV for comment on this story.

And it seems Kelly has definitely had a change of heart since 2018 – when she vowed never to do the show. Back then she said: “I can just think of a million things I’d rather do” as she “didn’t want to eat eyeballs or sheep testicles and all the things they have to eat on there”.

She said she’d rather “go and work in my local pub” if she needed the cash, adding: “Even if I had a huge tax bill and I had to pay it really urgently, I still wouldn’t do it. It’s kind of like the beginning of the end in my opinion.”

But I’m A Celeb bosses must have done something right as a source told The Sun on Sunday: “Show bosses have been after Kelly as a campmate for years and think she could possibly be their sexiest contestant ever.”

Gordon Ramsay ‘had to come clean’ after cancer scare risked criticism from fans

Gordon Ramsay, 59, has faced a number of health scares in recent years, including a cycling accident and a cancer scare, which left him fearing ‘accusations’

Undoubtedly one of the world’s most accomplished chefs, Gordon Ramsay currently boasts eight prestigious Michelin stars and oversees a billion-pound media empire.

Beyond his 94 eateries, he maintains the same level of determination in his personal life, taking part in swimming, cycling and running as part of punishing Half Ironman competitions. While the 59-year-old’s rigorous physical training routine and outdoor pursuits have benefited his fitness considerably, they have also resulted in several serious health concerns.

He was left “really shaken” following a cycling incident in June that resulted in significant bruising. He disclosed that while he didn’t “break any bones or suffer any major injuries,” he was “a bit bruised up, looking like a purple potato.”

“I’m in pain. It’s been a brutal week. And I’m sort of getting through it,” Gordon explained.

Following the incident, he issued advice regarding cycle helmets: “I don’t care how short the journey is,” he stated. Cyclists must always wear a helmet, and it is particularly crucial for youngsters—”they’ve got to wear a helmet.”

This summer, Gordon encountered an even more serious health concern when he had an operation for cancer and felt compelled to share his experience online to stop speculation that he’d had cosmetic work like Simon Cowell.

In August, medical professionals removed a basal cell carcinoma, a form of skin cancer, from behind Gordon’s ear. “It was a scare,” he told The Sunday Times, but it was “dealt with immediately.”

Gordon candidly admitted there was no hiding the procedure: “That f***ing plaster was the size of a book cover, so I had to come clean.”

The Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares and Hell’s Kitchen presenter explained he was concerned people might think he’d undergone a facelift if he didn’t disclose the genuine reason behind his operation.

Gordon shared two photographs on his Instagram profile: one displaying a large plaster positioned below his ear, and another showing the actual surgical cut.

He posted: “Grateful and so appreciative for the incredible team at The Skin Associates and their fast, reactive work on removing this basal cell carcinoma. Thank you! Please don’t forget your sunscreen this weekend,” he added. “I promise you it’s not a facelift! I would need a refund…”

Non-melanoma skin cancer is frequently straightforward to treat, according to NHS guidance. Official advice states: “It’s possible to reduce your risk of skin cancer by being careful in the sun—for example, by using sunscreen and reapplying it regularly.”

The disease typically develops gradually, though without treatment it may extend into nearby skin, muscle, and occasionally bone tissue.

Signs and symptoms to watch for

BCC can appear in various forms, including:

  • Shiny or waxy bumps: tiny, glossy lumps appearing pink, red, or white.
  • Scar-like flat areas: patches of pale, firm skin resembling scarring.
  • Persistent non-healing sores: wounds that repeatedly bleed, ooze, or form crusts.
  • Red, irritated patches: rough or scaly areas that may be itchy or tender.

Unlike melanoma, BCC rarely spreads to lymph nodes or distant organs, but early treatment is crucial to prevent local tissue damage. The prognosis is rarely life-threatening, though those who have been diagnosed are more likely to develop BCC again.

Risk factors.

Sun exposure is the leading cause of BCC, particularly cumulative exposure over a lifetime. Additional risk factors include:

  • Fair or sensitive skin that burns easily
  • History of sunburns, especially in childhood
  • Frequent use of tanning beds
  • Weakened immune system
  • Family or personal history of skin cancer

Prevention and treatment.

Preventing BCC involves protecting the skin from UV radiation:

  • Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with high SPF daily
  • Wear protective clothing, hats, and sunglasses
  • Seek shade during peak sunlight hours (remember, it can be sunny on cold days too)
  • Avoid tanning beds

Princess Andre looks even more like mum Katie Price after undergoing major change

Princess Andre has shared an update on her new look with her fans, and they are shocked by how much she looks like her model mum Katie Price after this one change

Princess Andre has stunned fans after unveiling a striking new look — and it’s got everyone saying that she’s the double of her famous mum, Katie Price.

The 18-year-old model and influencer showed off her freshly spray-dyed brunette hair in a TikTok video on Wednesday, while posing to Haven’s hit I Run.

Princess was wearing a cropped leopard print tank top and grey joggers as she showed off her darker locks. “I now wanna be brunette,” she captioned the post.

Fans flooded the comments comparing her to Katie, 47, who has been a brunette for a long time and looked very similar to how Princess does now when she was a teen herself.

One person wrote: “Look just like your beautiful mamma.” Another chimed in: “Katie in her young years wowwwwww!” A third gasped: “You are your mother’s double now!”

The makeover comes after an exciting few months for the Princess Diaries star, whose hit ITV reality show documented her journey into adulthood.

The first series followed Princess as she learned to drive, signed her first brand partnership, and made her catwalk debut at the Ibiza Fashion Festival.

While her dad Peter Andre, step-mum Emily and brother Junior were heavily featured in the show, Katie was notably absent after being “banned” from filming.

Despite not appearing on The Princess Diaries, Katie has publicly supported her daughter’s blossoming career, describing her as both her “best friend” and “the most amazing daughter”.

She recently said on The Katie Price Show podcast: “There is absolutely no rift between me and Princess. We get on like best friends, mother and daughter. Our personal life together is amazing.”

Katie also revealed that Princess had sent her a touching message about motherhood, which she shared with her followers on Instagram.

The message read: “I hope my mom never goes to bed thinking she failed as a mother, because I could write her a whole book about how amazing she’s been. I love you, mom.” Katie captioned the post: “Thank you gorgeous daughter @princess_andre.”

As The Princess Diaries prepares for its second series, producers have reportedly decided to focus solely on Princess rather than her parents. Both Pete and Emily are taking a step back.

A source told MailOnline: “Everyone just wants the best for Princess, and the show is her series after all. Now she’s 18, she can stand on her own two feet.”

Meanwhile, Princess continues to make her own mark on the entertainment world. While at the ITV Palooza event alongside her brother Junior, she revealed she’d love to follow in her parents’ footsteps and appear on I’m A Celebrity — the very show where Pete and Katie met two decades ago.

“Mum and dad met on the show and then had us,” she said. “I’d love to do it, even though I’d be petrified for my life.” Junior quickly cautioned: “Maybe let’s not mention what we’re scared of.”

Lewis Burton’s heartbreaking vow to Caroline Flack in first message after she died

Lewis Burton doesn’t appear in the new Caroline Flack: Search for the Truth documentary – but it’s believed he will speak out to give his side of the story soon

Lewis Burton made a heartbreaking promise to Caroline Flack in his first public message following her tragic death.

The former tennis star told Caroline he would ‘get all the answers’ for her. Love Island host Caroline passed away on 15 February 2020 at the age of just 40 after taking her own life.

Posting on Instagram a day after the news broke, a heartbroken Lewis – who had been dating Caroline for seven months at the time she died – shared a photo of them on holiday with her arms wrapped around him and wrote: “My heart is broken, we had something so special.”

He continued: “I am so lost for words. I am in so much pain. I miss you so much. I know you felt safe with me. You always said I don’t think about anything else when I am with you. And I was not allowed to be there this time. I kept asking and asking.

“I will be your voice baby. I promise I will ask all the questions you wanted and I will get all the answers. Nothing will bring you back but I will try make you proud everyday.” He ended the post by with a broken heart emoji and the words: “I love you with all my heart.”

The ex-professional tennis player was 27 when he began dating Caroline back in July 2019. Now 33, he is engaged to Lottie Tomlinson, the 27-year-old sister of One Direction star Louis Tomlinson. The couple are also parents to two children, a three-year-old son named Lucky who was born in August 2022 and 11-month-old daughter Flossie, who was born in January 2025.

As a new documentary about Caroline’s death and the court case leading up to it was aired on Disney+, Lewis has found his former relationship thrust back into the spotlight. He does not appear in the documentary, although the director and producer said Lewis was approached several times but declined to be interviewed.

Five years on from her suicide, Caroline’s heartbroken mother Christine Flack is seeking answers about her daughter’s death, which she believes could have been avoided.

It details the night of December 12, 2019, when Caroline and Lewis had been out drinking separately. They came back to her North London flat and went to bed. But an argument broke out when Caroline found texts from another woman on Lewis’ phone as he slept.

Caroline’s lawyer Paul Morris said Caroline tried to wake Lewis up by hitting him with his phone after her “worst fears” were confirmed. After noticing his head was bleeding, Lewis threatened to call police, which he later did. When they arrived Caroline had cut her own wrists and needed hospital treatment.

She was arrested and held in a cell but told she would only be given a caution. However, her mum Christine discovered a detective then appealed to the Crown Prosecution Service to push ahead with charges against Caroline, known as Carrie to her close friends and family.

It was the knowledge she would be charged with assault by beating – and being publicly branded a domestic abuser – that set Caroline, who already struggled with her mental health privately, off on a downwards spiral that ultimately ended in her tragic suicide when she learned the case would go to trial.

Now it’s believed Lewis will say something about his ex-girlfriend as he vowed to “clarify the situation” after the new documentary was released. In a statement on Instagram, Lewis said: “Out of respect, I’ve chosen to remain silent. However, the false accusations and online abuse directed toward me and my family has gone too far. I had hoped it would never come to this, but now I have no choice but to clarify the situation and share the truth.” Though he is yet to give more detail on his version of events.

Katie Price takes another swipe at Peter Andre in furious parenting rant

Katie Price launched into a rant against those trying to dictate her children’s lives while failing to give her a say and taking away her ‘right’ as a mother

Katie Price appears to have taken yet another swipe at Peter Andre in her latest podcast. The former glamour model, 47, was speaking to her sister Sophie on their The Katie Price Show podcast when she went on a rant.

Despite not specifically naming her ex, who she met in the I’m A Celebrity jungle, her comments could indicate further fallout between the pair. They have had a number of high-profile fallouts, specifically when it comes to their kids, Junior and Princess.

Katie told her sister: “When you’ve got a child, right. I don’t know the right word, but say like with your kids. If you had someone dictating what your kids do and they won’t give you a say, it’s like taking your mother’s instinct. Your mother’s right.

“It does hurt my feelings because I am their mother and I will also be their mother, regardless. People who make money off them will come and go, yet your mother will be there forever.”

Sister Sophie then jumped in and smirked as she asked: “Has mum actually said that to you before?” She then laughed as she let Katie respond.

The mum-of-five then said: “No, but it’s true.” Sophie agreed and echoed the sentiment.

The words come as Princess Andre’s The Princess Diaries was confirmed as being commissioned for a second series. The first offering saw Katie hit out at producers and Peter for not letting her be a part of it.

She slammed the decision to cut her from production despite her offering her support. Instead, Katie only had a brief phone cameo on the series, while singer Peter and new wife Emily were prominent throughout.

However, the couple have since reportedly pulled out of filming the second series of the reality TV show. Cameras follow the 18-year-old’s own rise to fame, from a fashion and beauty influencer to young businesswoman determined to make her own money away from her parent’s fame.

And it’s thought the latest series will see dad Peter, 52, and stepmum Emily, 36, step back from filming at their house in Surrey.

A source recently told MailOnline: “Pete and Emily will not feature in The Princess Diaries seasons two and three. It was discussed between him and Princess, and they decided as a family that it’s better for the show to focus on Princess alone, rather than her family life.

“Katie was obviously very hurt over not being asked to film alongside Princess for season one, and she caused a lot of drama and upset behind the scenes.No one wants Princess to feel caught between her two parents, so Pete has taken a massive step back, which he hopes will resolve many of the issues.

“Everyone just wants the best for Princess, and the show is her series after all, now she’s 18, she can stand on her own two feet.”

Speaking out on her ‘ban’ at the time, Katie claimed she was “not allowed” to be on the show because of Princess’ management team. The organisation also represents Peter.

Ranvir Singh has a seriously enviable style, always showing up in a chic and polished look. And her recent appearance on Good Morning Britain is no exception.

One shopper wrote, “I bought petite 14 and it fits like a glove. Love it.” While a second added, “Stylish and can be worn anywhere. Good fit, the petite size is a bonus….no need to shorten the legs!”.

A third commented, “Well made with great front zip, belt and pockets . Got the green one last year and decided to get the red this year. Fab colour, really on trend. Very flattering fit.”

However, one shopper critiqued the jumpsuit for being “too thick and bulky”.

Ranvir isn’t the only daytime TV presenter whose style has been receiving a lot of love. Just last week, Susanna Reid was praised as the “lady in red” on Good Morning Britain in the chic Scarlet Red Crepe Belted Trim Collared Midi Dress from Love & Roses at Next.
