I’m A Celebrity 2026: Christopher Dean rumoured for line-up
Reports claim Christopher had previously ruled out taking part in I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here?. However, since retiring, he is said to be looking at the show differently.
A source told The Sun: “When bosses came knocking this year, he saw it in a different light. He’s recently retired and is looking for a new challenge.
“I’m A Celebrity is certainly that, so he has met with producers a few times already to talk through being a campmate for this year’s standard Australian series.”
According to the report, ITV bosses are keeping their fingers crossed that Christopher agrees to sign up.
