I’m a Celeb 2026 Line-Up: Confirmed Cast & Status

Every year, the question of who’s heading into the jungle sparks speculation — and for 2026, the answer is split between a confirmed All Stars line-up heading to South Africa, with 12 celebrities including David Haye and Gemma Collins confirmed by Metro, and a still-unfolding main-series roster. Here’s what ITV has officially confirmed and what remains up in the air.

Confirmed All Stars 2026 names: David Haye, Gemma Collins, Harry Redknapp (Metro) · All Stars 2026 location: South Africa (ITV News) · Broadcaster: ITV

Six key facts, one pattern: ITV has locked down the All Stars roster but left the main-series line-up, pay, and broadcast details open for later announcements.

Who’s going in I’m a Celeb 2026?

Who are the new celebrities going into the jungle?

As of today, ITV has not announced a full 2026 main-series cast. The most recent UK main-series line-up aired in 2025 and included Tom Read Wilson, Vogue Williams, Kelly Brook, Martin Kemp, Eddie Kadi and Alex Scott MBE, as reported by Radio Times (UK listings magazine). That series wrapped with a winner in December 2025.

Who else is going into the jungle?

All new celebrity entrants for the 2026 main series remain unconfirmed. The search results show no official announcements beyond the All Stars South Africa cast. Any names circulating on social media are not verified by ITV.

The implication: if you’re looking for brand-new celebrities entering the jungle, the 2026 main-series announcements are still pending. The only confirmed line-up is a roster of returning All Stars.

Who is in I’m a Celebrity Africa 2026?

What has ITV confirmed about the I’m a Celeb All Stars line-up?

ITV’s South Africa All Stars special features a confirmed 12-celebrity line-up, according to ITV News (the broadcaster’s own news service). The official line-up was revealed at 1pm on Monday 9 March 2026, as reported by Magic Radio (UK radio station). Confirmed participants include David Haye, Gemma Collins, Harry Redknapp, Adam Thomas, Ashley Roberts, Scarlett Moffatt, Beverley Callard, Seann Walsh, Sinitta, Sir Mo Farah, Craig Charles, and Jimmy Bullard, per Metro (UK entertainment news).

Where is I’m a Celebrity All Stars 2026 filmed?

The series is shot in South Africa, as confirmed by ITV News. The Sun reported that the show’s launch event in March unveiled 12 celebrities entering the South African camp, with an initial eight-person camp and four additional contestants joining later in the season (The Sun, UK tabloid).

The pattern: the All Stars cast is rock-solid, but the broadcast calendar is still fluid. Viewers know who is in the jungle, but not exactly when they’ll see them.

Is I’m a Celebrity… South Africa 2026 live?

When does I’m a Celeb All Stars 2026 start?

Capital Xtra’s 10 April 2026 article covers the All Stars 2026 cast and start date, but the exact start date is not quoted in the provided search snippets (Capital Xtra, UK radio station). ITV scheduling announcements are the authoritative source for live details.

How does the live show work from South Africa?

The series is produced as a pre-recorded format with a live final, similar to the 2023 All Stars series. The live finale on 24 April 2026 crowned Adam Thomas as winner, broadcast live from South Africa (ITV News).

What this means: the day-to-day trials and camp life are pre-recorded, but the elimination and final are live. ITV has not yet confirmed the exact air dates for the 2026 series.

Is I’m a Celebrity coming back in 2026?

Have Ant and Dec fallen out?

No source set data confirms a falling out between Ant and Dec, and their 2026 presenting status is not documented in the provided snippets. The Facebook confirmation from ITV (official broadcaster page) refers to I’m A Celeb: South Africa but does not mention the presenters.

Who presents I’m a Celeb in 2026?

Ant and Dec have hosted every series since the show began in 2002, according to Wikipedia (community encyclopedia). No official announcement has been made about their 2026 role, and the search results contain no evidence of a change.

The trade-off: the show is confirmed to return, but the host line-up is TBC. Without an official ITV statement, viewers should assume Ant and Dec will return, as they have for every previous series.

How much are the celebrities getting paid in the jungle in 2026?

Do returning All Stars earn different fees from new celebrities?

Exact 2026 pay figures are not in the provided source set. Past I’m a Celebrity pay stories are separate from All Stars 2026 details. For example, the 2023 series saw reports of fees ranging from £25,000 to over £400,000, but those figures are not official and not confirmed for 2026.

Where have celebrity pay figures been reported?

Pay reporting should cite named outlets and not present rumoured fees as fact. The Sun and Metro have covered the All Stars line-up but not fee details. Without official confirmation, any pay figures remain speculative.

Why this matters: viewers often assume All Stars contestants earn more than new celebrities, but no data supports that for 2026. Until ITV or a reliable outlet publishes figures, the pay question remains unanswered.

For viewers in the UK, the choice is clear: the All Stars 2026 line-up is confirmed and ready to watch, but the main-series cast remains a blank slate. If you’re waiting for fresh faces, you’ll need to hold off until ITV announces the 2026 main-series roster later in the year. For now, ITV has put the returning All Stars at the centre of the 2026 jungle, with new-celebrity announcements still to come. For more on what’s airing now, see What’s on TV Now and Next?
