Keeling is a 25-year-old internet personality, social media influencer and presenter. Keeling first came to public attention when she started posting her videos to TikTok in 2020, whilst completing her degree, during the Covid 19 pandemic. She is known as GK Barry on the platform and was known for posting her funny and relatable videos. She then launched her famously unfiltered podcast, called Saving Grace, in April 2022 which became an instant hit with listeners.
Harry Clark
Clark, aged 23, triumphed on the second series of BBC’s ‘The Traitors earlier this year. Clark, who was a Traitor, won £95,150 in the thrilling ‘whodonit’ reality show after co-star Mollie Pearce mistakenly thought he was Faithful. He told Lorraine Kelly that he would “love” to go in to the jungle.
Olivia Attwood-Dack
As fans of ‘I’m a Celeb’ will know, 33-year-old reality star Olivia Attwood-Dack was part of the cast in the 2022 series but she was forced to quit due to medical reasons. The former Love Islander later hinted she could return for the 2023 series, revealing she'd had chats with bosses on “Loose Women”. She wasn’t a campmate last year, so it could be that she returns this year.
Alan Halsall
It is thought that ‘Coronation Street’ actor Halsall, aged 41, who has played Tyrone Dobbs since 1998, he was due to appear in 2023, before he suffered an injury which resulted in him needing major surgery. It's now being reported that bosses are hopinh to sign him up for this year’s show.

Former “This Morning” host Phillip Schofield has kept out of the spotlight since leaving the ITV daytime show in May 2023 amid a scandal in which it was revealed that he had a relationship with a younger male colleague. In May this year, however, the 62-year-old was spotted out with Dec Donnelly, which led to speculation that Schofield could be planning a TV comeback on the show, which Donnelly hosts alongside Ant McPartlin.
Alex Beresford
“Good Morning Britain” weather presenter Alex Beresford, age 43, has recently told the Mirror that he’d like to have a go on the show. He said: "Out of all the shows I would love to do, I would love to do the jungle." He’s recently been on our screens on BBC One's “Celebrity Race Across The World”.
Danny Dyer
Former Eastenders actor Danny Dyer, age 46, has recently addressed the rumours that his character Mick Carter could come back from the dead, but fans have long said that they’d love to see him as an “I’m a Celeb” contestant.
Sam Aston
Aston is another longtime Corrie actor who is a prime candidate for this year’s show. The 31-year-old star, who has planned Chesney Brown since 2003, spoke about it to OK! Magazine in 2021. He said: "I've always said no to all of those shows, but then recently for some reason I've been more open to the idea. Jennie McAlpine and Andy Whyment did the jungle and both of them said it's the experience of a lifetime. If I was offered it I would be open to the idea and open to the extra pennies!"

Mellor, age 48, finished fifth place in “Strictly Come Dancing” in 2022, and he’s apparently admitted to his friend and former co-star Ralf Little he'd quite like to appear on “I'm A Celeb”.
Denise Van Outen
Van Outen, who celebrated her milestone 50th birthday earlier this year has taken part in many reality TV shows, including “Googlebox” and “Strictly Come Dancing”, and though she has previously said she turned down the offer to add “I’m a Celeb” to the list in 2021, some people seem to think it’ll only be a matter of time before she does take part.
The Vivienne
RuPaul's Drag Race UK winner The Vivienne, aged 32, has also been speaking to Lorraine recently about her thoughts on the show. While admitting she’d never really considered if she’d like to take part when the TV host asked for her opinion, she did call it an “amazing” opportunity”.
Richard Arnold
Good Morning Britain's entertainment presenter Arnold, age 54, is used to travelling to Australia for the show every year as he usually chats to each of the celebs as they are evicted from the jungle and then, of course, the eventual winner. But, this year he could be in the running for the jungle crown himself.
