Author: Emma DoddsPublished 21st Nov 2019

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! fans had an absolute treat last night as we found out that there are two late arrivals joining the show on tonight's episode (21st Nov)! Cliff Parisi and Andrew Whyment were announced as the two late arrivals into the show, and fans have gone absolutely wild on the Internet.

Cliff is possibly best known as Minty Richardson on EastEnders or as Fred Buckle in Call The Midwife, and Andy has been starring as Kirk Sutherland on Coronation Street since 2000, and also had a role in The Royle Family.

Presenters Ant & Dec announced their arrivals at the very end of last night's episode, showing the current 10 campmates' reactions to the news that there will be two jungle newbies joining them in main camp.

Scroll through to see which celebrities are in I'm A Celeb this year...

Ian Wright

Former footballer and Match of the Day pundit Ian Wright is heading into the jungle. Ian Wright is rumoured to be earning the second-highest wage of £400,000 while in the jungle.
But during an appearance at the Royal Concert hall in Nottingham last week, Harry Redknapp, last year's King of the Jungle, revealed Wright would be earning one million as someone tweeted: "Just got home from seeing @Redknapp in Nottingham. Interestingly, he let slip that Ian Wright has been paid £1m to appear on this year's #ImaCeleb."

Nadine Coyle

Girls Aloud singer Nadine Coyle will be facing her fears on the show. What Nadine will be earning has been kept quiet for now, however, the average amount that stars of I'm A Celebrity earn is between £10,000 and £80,000.

Myles Stephenson

He won The X Factor with his band Rak-Su, but can Gabby Allen's ex-boyfriend win I'm A Celebrity?

Kate Garraway

She's used to putting up with Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain, so the jungle should be a doddle for TV presenter Kate Garraway. Kate's co-presenter Ben Shepard teased Kate on Good Morning Britain: "I can't wait for you to go away for a month," and Kate responded: "I can neither confirm nor deny."

James Haskell

He's used to being the hard man on a rugby pitch, so how will James Haskell cope in a jungle full of creepy crawlies? Although we can't confirm what James Haskell will be pulling in, last year's contestant John Barrowman received £200,000.

Caitlyn Jenner

Reportedly the highest paid star to ever grace the jungle, Kylie and Kendall Jenner's dad Caitlyn is set to reveal some major Kardashian gossip.

Jacqueline Jossa

Former EastEnders star Jacqueline Jossa will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of past soap stars on the show. Bosses are reportedly hoping she dishes the dirt on her on'/off marriage to reality star Dan Osborne.

Adele Roberts

Big Brother 3 star Adele Roberts is going back to her reality TV roots for the 2019 series.

Roman Kemp

Roman is a TV personality and son of former EastEnders actor Martin Kemp. He's set to bring some eye candy to the jungle. Roman has wanted to go into the jungle for quite some time as he told Digital Spy in 2017: "The only reality show I would do is I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! purely because I would get a holiday and get to see Ant & Dec every day!"

Andrew Maxwell

Irish comedian Andrew is set to bring the laughs to the jungle and we actually can't wait. There has been no details referring to what Andrew could be earning, yet latecomer Noel Edmunds earned £600,000, the highest amount that has been paid to any celebrity on the show.

Andrew Whyment

Coronation Street star Andy Whyment AKA Kirk Sutherland is a late arrival into the jungle!

Cliff Parisi

Former EastEnders star and current Call The Midwife actor Cliff Parisi is a late arrival alongside Andy Whyment!

Fans took to Twitter at the news of Cliff and Andy's impending arrivals. One wrote, 'Can't believe Kirk from Coronation Street is going into I'm A Celeb what a man', and another joked, 'All’s am saying I’m a celeb is worth the watch now Kirk an minty going into it 🤣🤣'.

Another commented, 'That's made my night Kirk from Corrie going into I’m a celeb go onnnnn 🤣', as one other tweeted, 'Haven’t started watching I’m a Celeb yet but Minty and Kirk being the extra arrivals is the best thing to ever happen to the show.'

Of going into the jungle, Cliff said, "When you have a crucial time in your life, you always have a cup of tea. To go without tea, no telly and not much food will be tough. It's going to be hard being away from my creature comforts."

Andy added, "We're all going to be outside our comfort zones but I hope I can entertain everyone. I am not sure what I will be like on lack of food and sleep though as I love them both!"
