Paris Fury confirms she's turned down 2023 I'm A Celeb stint
Bosses called her five days after she'd given birth
Following the success of recent Netflix show At Home With The Furys, which featured heavyweight champion boxer Tyson Fury, his wife Paris, and the couple's seven children, it seems 33-year-old Paris is in high-demand.
As well as fans begging for a second series of the hit show, Paris has now revealed she was recently offered a place on the 2023 I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here line-up, despite just giving birth to her seventh child weeks ago.
Appearing on Thursday's (28th September) episode of Lorraine, Paris revealed ITV bosses called her just five days after she'd given birth to her new baby boy.
She told host Lorraine Kelly: "I actually got a call recently, just a couple of days ago.
"And they were like 'I know she's just had the baby' - he was about five days old - 'But would you consider coming to the jungle next in the next few weeks?' It's like 'no, no, no, no.'"
She added: "So these things are lovely opportunities. And I think that would be great to do if you have the time at that moment. But for me, I'm concentrating on the family. I never chose to be in the limelight. Tyson's career brought us all here. And I always sort of rolled with it and went with it and now I'm here."
Mum-of-seven Paris went on to speak about the success of their Netflix show, saying: "I like people to know me as me.
"And so, but my main priority has always been the kids and my family life. So to go away for weeks on end, I don't think would suit me. I don't think I would leave the family for so long. So it's not something I'm really like chasing down, but you never say never."
Check out all of the rumoured names for I'm A Celeb 2023:
Patsy Palmer
Following her appearance on Celebrity Big Brother, bookies had odds of 2/1 for EastEnders actress Patsy Palmer to appear on this year's show. As reality TV fans will know, she's no stranger to TV, having appeared on the likes of The Masked Singer and Dancing On Ice.
Nick Ferrari
Reports suggested bosses were determined to get TV and Radio host Nick Ferrari on this year's line-up!
Jools Oliver
When hosts Ant and Dec invited TV chef Jamie Oliver to appear on the show, he quickly declined, saying: "Thanks for the offer boys, I would love to come on I'm A Celeb. "I think it's an amazing show, but honestly, you couldn't give me enough olive oil in the world to make me eat a witchetty grub or a kangaroo's a--e, no way."
However, he did nominate his wife Jools, adding: "But what I can give you is my wife Jools, she would love to be on the show. Go on Jools."
Ally McCoist
Scottish football legend Ally McCoist was reportedly in 'advanced talks' with bosses to appear on the 2024 series, but he didn't appear! The pundit has turned down the show twice in the past, and it looks like he's done the same again.
Jeremy Clarkson
Thanks to the success of Clarkson's Farm, 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
Bookies were tipping Tommy Fury to sign up for the 2024 series, but after landing a rematch with KSI, Tommy turned down the show. Now he's back with Molly-Mae, many thought he'd feature in the 2025 line-up.
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 and he didn't appear!
Richard Gadd
After shooting to intense fame in 2024 following the release of Netflix's Baby Reindeer, Scottish actor and comedian Richard Gadd was reportedly being lined-up by bosses.
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.
Although she's in demand right now and very busy with radio and TV jobs, we have to admit we'd love to see Liv back in the jungle at some point!
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 she's not going to appear in 2025.

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
Although they've not yet revealed his name, Paris and Tyson welcomed their seventh child into the world earlier this month, a healthy baby boy.
The happy couple revealed their news to OK! Magazine, confirming he was born on Monday 18th September at 2:29am, weighing 6lb 13oz.
