Viewers have been asking where they are since the spin-off series kicked off last week and now they're finally going to see Joe Swash and Dean Gaffney making their grand entrance into camp in I'm A Celebrity... South Africa. The arrival of the two former EastEnders stars, who competed on the ITV reality show in 2008 and 2006 respectively, was announced in the closing moments of Monday’s episode (May 1).
Actor and presenter Joe, 41, was crowned the winner of the eighth series of the regular show, and credits the experience for introducing him to his wife Stacey Solomon. "I’m A Celebrity holds a big place in my heart," he said before heading to the new setting of Kruger National Park, instead of the Australian jungle, in South Africa.
"I won it and I was lucky enough to go on to present the spin-off series on ITV2 for 10 years. I met Stacey whilst I was out in Australia and me and Stacey have now married and we have had kids. Doing the all-stars series is closure. It finishes off the circle."
