Here’s how much every contestant in I’m A Celeb is expected to earn

The new season of the reality show starts tonight.

The 25th season of the show kicks off this evening with celebrities like Aitch, Martin Kemp, and Alex Scott heading down under.

While each contestant will receive a decent pay packet, it’s said to only come into effect if they manage to stick out jungle life for a certain amount of time.

It's been widely reported that campmates must stay in the jungle for a minimum of 72 hours to get their full fee.

The rule is in place to prevent stars from exiting the show quickly with a wad of cash if they can’t hack it.

The 'secret' production rule was exposed by the GC (Gemma Collins) after she exited the show after just three days in 2014, as it’s said she was forcing herself to last.

An insider told The Sun the rumoured amount for each contestant in this year's line-up, and here's what they had to say:

Kelly Brook

While the model previously said she would ‘never’ do I’m a Celeb, it seems a sum of around £80,000 changed her mind.

Eddie Kadi

The comedian is reportedly the lowest paid contestant this year, with The Sun’s ‘insider’ saying he’ll be making a decent £75,000.

“Eddie isn’t as big a name as some of his camp mates, so he didn’t command as high a fee, but after his time in the jungle, his worth is set to shoot up as he’ll likely go far in there,” the source added.

Shona McGarty

The ex-EastEnders actress is set to bank £95,000 for her jungle stint.

She played Whitney Dean for 16 years before going on to appear in the West End play 2:22 A Ghost Story.

Ruby Max

The American-British actor is thought to also be making around £95,000 despite being tipped to be a fan-favourite.

Martin Kemp

The Spandau Ballet star is also said to be making around £95,000.

This is said to be over double the amount his son, Roman Kemp, made during his I’m a Celeb appearance in 2019.

Lisa Riley

 The Emmerdale star is also part of the £95,000 club.

She has played Mandy Dingle on the soap since 1995 and has apparently wanted to actually go in the jungle for a long time.

Angry Ginge

Hitting the six-figures, the social media star is said to be making around £100,000 while in the jungle.

The source said he’s got enough to ‘make him an attractive prospect to ITV’ to get those younger viewers watching.

Alex Scott

The Arsenal legend is thought to be getting over £100,000, however, the insider said her fee is a ‘closely-guarded secret’.

“But it’s an impressive amount as Alex is a massive name, very respected in her field and ITV were willing to shell out the big bucks for her,” the source explained.

Jack Osbourne

The reality TV legend is one of this season's highest paid stars, thought to be receiving a massive £200,000.

The source explained: “Jack is fresh off the back of his dad Ozzy’s death, so people will tune in so they can get his take on his loss and how the rest of the family is coping."

Aitch

The chart-topper is rumoured to be this year’s top earner, set for a whopping £250,000 cheque.

“Aitch is a very savvy negotiator and very wealthy in his own right already, but I know he is looking to become more mainstream as he gets older, and this will be a good vehicle for him," said the source.

While the rapper is set to bring in viewers, particularly in the younger age bracket, it is worth highlighting that his payment figure differs massively from previous years, with Coleen Rooney said to have earned £1.5 million last year, and Caitlin Jenner £500,000 in 2019.

Season 25 of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! airs on ITV at 9pm tonight.
