Josie Gibson could be heading into the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! jungle this winter, according to sources at the ITV show. The This Morning presenter, who has been praised while hosting the show recently, may be bringing a slice of Bristol to the camp following Clifton resident Carol Vorderman's stint in the first ever series of I'm A Celebrity... South Africa.
Mum-of-one Josie, who is from Yate and lives in Bristol with her son, Reggie James, is reportedly in "advanced talks" to appear on the popular Australia-filmed reality show, with a big fee allegedly being waved in front of her nose. Josie is said to be hoping to further her TV career, having initially found fame in the Big Brother House back in 2010.
Reports suggest that Josie could make £100,000 from her rumoured jungle stay, with the series still several months away from its usual November air date. It is thought that Josie has the potential to thrive in the jungle, having taken on plenty of challenges and facing her fears during her daytime TV segments, including rollercoaster rides and Via Ferrata, which is similar to Go Ape!, but up the side of a mountain.
