Last updated 7th Jan 2019
She originally found fame on The X Factor when she finished runner-up to Ben Haenow in 2014, but it was Fleur East's recent stint in the I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here jungle which really showed off her hilarious personality.
After striking up an amazing friendship with King of the Jungle Harry Redknapp, Fleur has now landed herself a role on popular daytime show This Morning!
According to reports, Fleur will host a health and fitness segment called 'Inch Loss Island' on the show and what's more... it will be live from Antigua!
An insider for The Mirror said, "She’s Fleur a perfect fit for This Morning. She’s fun, instantly likable and a fitness fanatic. They will take on a number of challenges including kayaking across Mamora Bay, a zip line challenge, float fit and aqua aerobics, sunset yoga and spa treatments.”

The news comes just days after revealed herself and Harry Redknapp have become "like family" since leaving the jungle.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk, she said, "We’ve come from similar backgrounds growing up in the east end, humble beginnings and then we’ve faced dreams that have been so big and so outside of where we’ve come from. We had that in common and we spoke a lot about remaining humble and always remembering where you’ve come from.
Fleur added that she had received some lovely comments about being a role model for young children. She said, "It’s nice that I’ve got that far because there are parents that come up to me and say, 'My kids have the same hair as you and they’ve always wanted to straighten it' or 'Seeing you in the jungle with your hair and you embraced it, now my kid wants to wear her hair natural', it’s amazing and really cool to have that and be an inspiration in those ways.
"For me, it’s not a conscious thing necessarily but I think it’s really positive because I can have the conversation and hope to change that view and those stereotypes."
Meanwhile, after releasing hits like 'Sax' and 'More and More' in the past, Fleur dropped her brand new comeback single 'Favourite Thing' last week.
