I'm A Celebrity OFFICIAL line-up confirmed

After what feels like years of rumours, bosses at ITV have FINALLY confirmed the celebrities taking part in this year's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, and it's a great bunch!

Despite the likes of Harry Redknapp, Nick Knowles and Sair Khan being spotted arriving at Brisbane Airport yesterday (Monday 12th November), it has now OFFICIALLY been announced by ITV, and there are some surprises.

The announcement comes just a day after presenters Holly Willoughby and Dec Donnelly vamped up the excitement levels by sharing the first official shot of them together.

Taking to Instagram, Dec wrote, 'Ant’s looking well don’t you think!? I’m joking of course, Holly and I are looking forward to welcoming you to Australia next Sunday night. D 🇦🇺 🌴🐍🌴🕷🌴🐜'. sic

Holly, who was announced as the stand-in presenter when Ant McPartlin revealed he was taking a year off, has expressed her excitement for the show, adding, 'And so it begins... @imacelebrity 🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷🕷'. sic

Ahead of the launch show, Dec has opened up about the heartbreaking reason he chose Holly to co-host the show alongside him.

He said, "As always I’m incredibly excited to be heading to Aus for I’m A Celebrity.

"It is obviously tinged with sadness that Ant won’t be coming this year, I’m going to really miss him, but it’s only for one series and he’ll be back stronger next year. I didn’t want to host this series with another guy so Holly was top of my list."

The new series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here begins on ITV at 9pm on Sunday 18th November.

WE CAN'T WAIT! 🕷️🐜
