Last updated 6th Sep 2024
With the return of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! just months away, rumours are heating up about which celebs will head over to the Australian jungle, and one name in particular has been added to the rumour mill in recent days.
Following his shock split from fiancée Molly-Mae Hague, after five years together, Love Island 2019 star Tommy Fury is being tipped to sign-up for the popular show, with his odds now at 4/1.
Ladbrokes said: "Reality TV chiefs will surely be queuing up to snap up Molly-Mae or Tommy following their shock split, and the odds suggest the latter could well be jungle-bound later this year."
Check out the rumoured names for this year's I'm A Celeb below:
Maura Higgins
With the news that Tommy has now pulled out of the show, rumours are rife that his fellow Love Island star Maura Higgins will replace him! Although Maura wasn't included in the cast announcement, reports are suggesting she could be a late arrival.
Reverend Richard Coles
He's no stranger to reality TV having appeared on Strictly Come Dancing back in 2017, but now it sounds like Reverend Richard Coles could be about to swap his dancing shoes for the jungle. According to reports, Richard has signed up for this year's series and will enter as a late arrival.
Ally McCoist
Scottish football legend Ally McCoist was reportedly in 'advanced talks' with bosses to appear on the 2024 series. The pundit has turned down the show twice in the past, and it looks like he's done the same again!
Tom Daley
After winning his fifth Olympic medal during the Paris 2024 Olympics, diver Tom Daley announced his retirement from the sport after the games, and bosses were reportedly keen to sign him up for I'm A Celeb!
Jeremy Clarkson
Following the last ever series of The Grand Tour, rumours were rife that Jeremy Clarkson is in demand with reality TV shows, with I'm A Celeb reportedly top of the list!
Tommy Fury
Following his shock split from Love Island fiancée Molly-Mae Hague in August, bookies were tipping Tommy Fury to sign up for the 2024 series! Ladbrokes said: "Reality TV chiefs will surely be queuing up to snap up Molly-Mae or Tommy following their shock split, and the odds suggest the latter could well be jungle-bound later this year."
However, just weeks before the start date, reports are rife that Tommy has pulled out of the show after getting a better offer for a rematch against KSI.
Mick McCarthy
After departing his managerial position at Blackpool FC last year, Mick McCarthy was being tipped to head into the jungle!
Giovanni Pernice
Following his removal from Strictly Come Dancing, ITV/STV bosses were reportedly keen to sign up Giovanni Pernice for the 2024 series, with Mail Online suggesting they are ready to splash out £100,000 to sign him. However, Giovanni then signed up for the Italian version of Strictly.
Richard Gadd
After shooting to intense fame earlier this year following the release of Netflix's Baby Reindeer, Scottish actor and comedian Richard Gadd was reportedly being lined-up by bosses for the 2024 series of I'm A Celeb.
Olivia Attwood
As fans will know, reality star Olivia Attwood was forced to quit the 2022 series due to medical reasons, leaving her gutted. Olivia later hinted she could return for the 2023 series, admitting she'd had chats with bosses during an appearance on Loose Women.
However, it looks like she won't return this year.
Alex Beresford
Good Morning Britain weather reporter Alex Beresford recently expressed interest in appearing on I'm A Celeb. He told the Mirror: "Out of all the shows I would love to do, I would love to do the jungle."
Alex recently appeared on BBC One's Celebrity Race Across The World.
Danny Dyer
Since Danny Dyer left his iconic role as Queen Vic landlord Mick Carter on EastEnders last year, he's been heavily rumoured for I'm A Celeb.
Of course, his family are no strangers to reality TV, with Danny's daughter Dani winning Love Island back in 2018.
Denise van Outen
The lovely Denise van Outen is no stranger to reality shows, having appeared on the likes of Strictly Come Dancing and Celebrity Gogglebox in recent years.
Denise has previously admitted she turned down the offer in 2021, but it looks like 2024 won't be her year either.

She said: "Do you know what, I've never thought about it but what an absolutely amazing opportunity that would be."
Phil Taylor
Ever since he admitted he'd 'love' to appear on the show a number of years ago, darts legend Phil Taylor has been heavily rumoured every year.
Will Mellor
Following his stint on Strictly Come Dancing in 2022, it seems actor Will Mellor has the reality TV bug, as he's admitted to his friend and former co-star Ralf Little he'd fancy appearing on I'm A Celeb. Could 2024 be his year?
Harry Clark
The Traitors series two winner Harry Clark was reportedly being lined-up for the 2024 series. At the beginning of July, Harry appeared on Lorraine where he confessed he'd love to take part! Will we see him in the jungle?
None of the above names have been confirmed by ITV/STV bosses.
Just weeks after their five-year anniversary, Tommy and Molly-Mae shocked the world of showbiz in August, by announcing their romance is over.
The couple, who share one-year-old daughter Bambi together, both shared separate statements online, with 25-year-old Molly hinting it was her who chose to end the relationship.
Molly-Mae wrote: 'Never in a million years did I think I'd ever have to write this. After five years of being together I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way.
'I am extremely upset to announce that mine and Tommy's relationship has come to an end.
'I will forever be grateful for the most important thing to me now and always, my beautiful daughter. Without us there would be no her, she will always my priority.
'I want to thank you all for the love you have shown us over the last five years. You have all been a part of our journey and I feel it's right to share this with you all.
'Whilst I attempt to navigate the coming days and weeks please kindly respect my privacy over this difficult time, I'll be back when it feels right'. (sic)
Not long after, professional boxer Tommy told his followers: 'I am heartbroken to share that Molly & I have decided to end our relationship.
'The past 5 years have led to us having our beautiful baby girl, Bambi & I will be forever thankful to Molly for making me a dad. Bambi is our priority.
'Please respect our privacy, and our families privacy, as we navigate our way through this difficult time'. (sic)
In the days to follow, accusations that Tommy had 'cheated' on Molly-Mae came to light, but he was quick to deny the claims in a statement via his rep.
The statement read: "Tommy is horrified by the false allegations of cheating being circulated by the media and he’s consulting his lawyers."
I'm A Celeb is due to return to ITV/STV later this year, with the official line-up expected to be unveiled days before.
