Where are Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard? I’m A Celebrity fans question ‘missing’ stars

I’m A Celebrity fans are wondering what has happened to Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard and why they’re not on the show, after it had been announced they would be on the line-up

Harry Redknapp and Jimmy Bullard’s I’m A Celebrity debut, or lack of, has sparked questions on social media.

So where are the former campmates, and why have they not entered the South Africa camp? Stars including Gemma Collins, Beverley Callard and Craig Charles are already on the show.

That said, we already had late arrivals with Gemma and Craig joining the likes of Ashley Roberts, David Haye and Sinitta. But fans are now asking what’s happened to Jimmy and Harry after the news they too would be on the series.

Taking to social media, one fan said: “Where is Harry and Jimmy Bullard?” Another asked: “So no Harry?” as a third said: “Now we just need Harry!”

Some viewers were quick to comment that they’d heard the pair would be late arrivals. It seems the arrival of both stars could be very soon if a TV guide is anything to go by.

While hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly have yet to address it, Radio Times’ TV guide states that there are two new arrivals entering during Monday’s show. While it doesn’t name the newcomers, it seems only Harry and Jimmy are missing from the current line-up.

Viewers had been confused, as both Harry and Jimmy were named by the show as stars on the line-up on their social media accounts. So when they did not appear with the others, they questioned what had happened.

But rest assured, Harry and Jimmy are on the show and will join very soon, likely Monday if that TV guide is anything to go by. It’s been hinted by Ant and Dec that the arrivals of both stars will be teased at the end of Friday’s show.

Unlike the normal series, I’m A Celebrity South Africa will not air across the weekend. So it seems the arrival of Harry and Jimmy will be teased on Friday, and air on Monday.

Ant had said: “We’ve got two more late entries coming at the end of this week. Then, from week two, it just goes off again to another gear. It’s just got everything.”

The series was filmed last September in South Africa, so most of the series is pre-recorded. There will be a live episode for the final though later this month, taking place in London.

Gemma Collins fumes ‘someone call my agent’ as she regrets I’m A Celebrity return

I’m A Celebrity’s returning campmate Gemma Collins confessed to co-stars she ‘regrets’ her comeback, calling the camp ‘hell’ and ‘rancid’ as she feared she’d need surgery

Gemma Collins certainly brought the entertainment on I’m A Celebrity after her big return.

But Gemma wasn’t seeing the funny side, demanding someone “call her agent” as she slammed the “rancid” camp. She fumed the conditions “were not right”, calling it “hell”.

She hadn’t even been in camp for a day, but life in the basic camp took its toll as she confessed she regretted her return. Gemma left her series after 72 hours in 2014, and now she’s ready to redeem herself.

But just a day in, Gemma was struggling. Seeing the bed situation, the toilet and the shower, Gemma did not hold back. She said to Adam Thomas: “Do you think this is acceptable? This ain’t right. I ain’t showering.

“This is so bad. Someone call my agent if they’re listening because this is not acceptable.” As Adam asked if she regretted coming back, she simply replied: “Yeah.”

Later the complaints continued, as she said: “What have I done in my life to deserve this? It is just rancid. The beds… I’m gonna need back surgery after one night sleep.

“It is just hell, basically. That’s not right.” She then added after her first sleep in camp: “I feel like I’m in a torture camp. I’m in agony, this is so bad but I’ve done it.”

It comes after fans complained about the ending to Tuesday’s episode, calling for the pre-recorded format to be axed entirely. Just as Gemma and Craig Charles battled it out during their first trial in the spin-off series, the episode featured a cliffhanger twist that left fans fuming.

Gemma and Craig had just decided how much they were going to eat in the eating trial, battling it out for points for their team. It all came down to the final showdown, but as hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly kicked it off, the show ended.

Featuring a cliffhanger and ending the episode before the trial had finished did not go down well with ITV viewers. As many slammed the decision and bosses, one viewer even called for the format of the spin-off series to be axed entirely.

With it being a pre-recorded series, filmed late last year, viewers have less involvement and it’s all a little different to the main series. Taking to social media to call out ITV for ending the episode too early, one fan said: “What a cruel way to end that.”

Another said: “No no no, it didn’t just end like that. Who do I’m celeb think they are. Love island?” A third post read: “WHAT THE F**K. Axe this pre-recorded format immediately WHAT DO YOU MEAN ending the episode on a cliffhanger in the MIDDLE OF A TRIAL?!”

A further post said: “YOU CANT JUST END IT LIKE THAT WHAT THE HELL.” One fan wrote: “NOOOOOOOO WHY END THERE,” as another said: “A cliffhanger. You’re ending it on a cliffhanger.”

Sinitta ‘to quit’ I’m A Celebrity trial as fans ‘rumble’ result after cliffhanger

I’m A Celebrity South Africa viewers are convinced the unnecessary cliffhanger on Tuesday night may have cut off the moment where Sinitta will quit her Bushtucker Trial

Fans of I’m A Celebrity South Africa think they already know how Wednesday’s episode will begin.

After yet another cliffhanger during a trial, the episode on Tuesday ended with Sinitta screaming in terror. Both she and Seann Walsh were tackling the latest trial, with perspex helmets placed over their heads.

They were at the mercy of their campmates who had to correctly guess the answer to a number of questions. Sinitta and Seann each represented a team and the loser would have snakes added to their headwear.

Sinitta screamed for the entire trial, disliking snakes. Each time the team she belonged to got the answer wrong, she let out a wail as she realised another snake would be added.

It reached a point at the end of the episode where Sinitta faced yet another snake being put into the helmet, and her high-pitch squealing was all fans could hear. Suddenly there was a cliffhanger before we could see the end result.

But fans think they already know how it ends, and what happens next once the episode on Wednesday picks back up from Tuesday’s cliffhanger. Fans are convinced there was a cliffhanger as right after that moment, Sinitta might quit the trial.

Taking to social media one fan said: “Sinitta is going to crack!” adding: “I reckon one more snake and Sinitta will freak out!” Another said: “I’m surprised Sinita didn’t wave the white flag Sean was very calm in comparison.”

A third fan said: “I definitely don’t think she’s going to survive until the very end of the trial!” A further comment read: “Felt like poor Sinitta’s screams were going to go on forever, not really sure what the point was in that trial.

“I reckon after yet another annoying cliffhanger, the next episode will start with her shouting the famous words I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here and ending the trial.” A final post read: “Yeah there’s no way she’s making it to the end of that challenge. They just need to put one more snake in there and she’s gone.”

It comes after fans complained about the ending to Tuesday’s episode, calling for the pre-recorded format to be axed entirely. Just as Gemma Collins and Craig Charles battled it out during their first trial in the spin-off series, the episode featured a cliffhanger twist that left fans fuming.

I’m A Celebrity finalists ‘confirmed’ days in – and it’s not Gemma or Scarlett

I’m A Celebrity South Africa viewers think they already know the final three for the 2026 spin-off weeks before it airs after scenes during Tuesday’s episode of the ITV series

Viewers tuning into I’m A Celebrity South Africa think they already know which three campmates will be this year’s finalists.

Proceedings kicked off on Monday night on ITV1, as hosts Ant and Dec greeted the brand new cast of the spin-off series. On Tuesday, the second episode saw three campmates in particular proving popular.

As Seann Walsh, Adam Thomas and Beverley Callard got on with things in the basic camp, they were in hysterics over more than one discussion. The hilarious scenes left fans amused, loving the trio “they didn’t know they needed”.

Fans quickly predicted the three stars would go all the way to the final together, and one of them will win the whole series. Despite both Gemma Collins and Scarlett Moffatt being predicted winners, many fans now think Seann, Adam and Bev will be the final three.

One fan said: “Adam and Beverley running the game and it’s only the first day! Oh I need them in the final two!” Another fan said: “Beverley Callard, Adam Thomas & Seann Walsh – the trio I never knew I needed in my life.”

A third fan said: “Bev, Adam and Seann are TV gold. I don’t care about anyone else on this series as long I have these three.” A fourth said: “Just show us Sean, Bev and Adam for 3 weeks because they are GOLD.”

It comes as viewers predicted that one campmate will quit very soon. Gemma Collins made a brief debut on Monday before officially taking part on Tuesday, but the last time she did the series, she left after just 72 hours.

Now, fans are predicting yet another early exit very soon on the series as it continues. Gemma is tipped “not to last” by viewers, while many are excited to see her take part.

A fan said: “Let’s take bets on how long Gemma Collins will last!! I’ll be surprised if she makes it till the end of tomorrow nights episode.” Another agreed: “First boot hopefully, maybe 3 days again.”

A third viewer said: “I do think she may quit again, but maybe after a few days this time.” Others were just thrilled to see a glimpse of her appearance after having to wait the entire first episode, which she did not feature in much at all.

One fan said: “We watched an hour and a half to see 3 seconds of Gemma,” as another wrote: “I’m only here for Gemma and Scarlett.” A further post said: “Gemma Collins is going to save this series!”

Gemma Collins fears being hospitalised after grimmest I’m A Celebrity eating trial

Gemma Collins and Craig Charles entered the I’m A Celeb All Stars show in dramatic fashion with one of the worst trials ever seen on ITV

Camp late entries Craig Charles and Gemma Collins took part in an epic eating trial called Gut Instincts that pushed them both to the limit. At one stage Craig was sick and during another course Gemma claimed she had to quit that course as she was “going to be hospitalised” if she finished the food.

Before the I’m A Celeb games began, 45-year-old Gemma pleaded with the group: “Just give me a chance guys, please. I’ve got a different mindset this time, don’t write me off.”

Hosts Ant and Dec told Craig and Gemma that their first task will be an eating trial, after which they will split to join separate camps. The main Camp selected Craig to join them, assigning Gemma to Savannah Scrub.

During the trial, Craig and Gemma had to privately decide how many servings of dishes to eat. The player who commits to the highest number of servings then had to eat them to win points, but if they failed their rival could try to eat their food to steal the points.

Dishes included Fish Eye Pie, Terror-rine with blended chicken intestine and Brain Freeze – which was made of Springbok brains. This final one caused Gemma a lot of problems.

Shocked by the sight of one of the dishes, Craig said: “Have you ramped this up because it doesn’t look that bad on the telly?” Dec replied: “This is the Legends.”

The pair made their way through the lengthy menu, and after six of the seven courses, Craig has 12 points and Gemma 10.

The trial will finish tonight(Wednesday) in a dramatic climax that left the campmates in disbelief, as both contestants vowed to consume 30 shots each of Bloody Moory Shots – blended bull’s heart and bull’s blood.

Gemma said: “I’m gonna bang the whole tray. I’m doing my best.”

Once they both decided to go for the maximum, Ant and Dec said it would be race to see who finishes them first and wins meals for their camp. But if either is sick they will forfeit the round.

Scarlett Moffat said: “This is amazing, this is unbelievable.”

I’m A Celebrity viewers say ‘axe it immediately’ as they fume over ‘cruel’ twist

Some I’m A Celebrity South Africa viewers were so unimpressed with the latest episode twist that they slammed bosses, and one even called for the format to be axed

It’s safe to say I’m A Celebrity South Africa viewers were not impressed with the ending of Tuesday’s episode.

Just as Gemma Collins and Craig Charles battled it out during their first trial in the spin-off series, the episode featured a cliffhanger twist that left fans fuming. Gemma and Craig had just decided how much they were going to eat in the eating trial, battling it out for points for their team.

It all came down to the final showdown, but as hosts Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly kicked it off, the show ended. Featuring a cliffhanger and ending the episode before the trial had finished did not go down well with ITV viewers.

As many slammed the decision and bosses, one viewer even called for the format of the spin-off series to be axed entirely. With it being a pre-recorded series, filmed late last year, viewers have less involvement and it’s all a little different to the main series.

It comes as fans predicted a feud could be headed for three campmates on the show. After Beverley Callard brought up her launch episode drama with David Haye, her co-stars were stunned by his betrayal.

Back in the main camp, another campmate appeared to call David out after he moaned about their dinner, despite it being better than the rations the other camp were getting. David who feared he would go hungry.

Seeing the portion size, especially once split between the five campmates, he told stars including Sinitta that it wasn’t enough food. When it came to eating it though, he couldn’t finish his bowl. Sinitta pointed out that there was more food left over if he was still hungry, but he declined.

Speaking in the Bush Telegraph, Sinitta pointed out how he’d claimed the food wasn’t enough, yet he didn’t even eat what was in the food tin. Viewers were amused at Sinitta calling him out, and predicted both she and Beverley would end up clashing with David in a camp feud.

One fan said: “Sinitta and Beverly vs David Haye feud incoming.” Another fan theorised: “Haye I can see causing rows,” as a third said: “Obsessed with them all hating David.”

Sinitta spills on ‘dreamy’ Brad Pitt romance in I’m A Celebrity camp

The I’m A Celebrity All Stars have only been in camp a day but Sinitta is already opening up about her famous exes – including Hollywood superstar Brad Pitt

Sinitta has been regaling her I’m A Celebrity campmates with tales of her Brad Pitt romance. The former singer is one of the stars competing in the latest All Stars series in South Africa.

During Monday night’s launch, viewers saw the first set of celebs join the show with latecomers Craig Charles and Gemma Collins set to follow this evening.

A preview for tonight’s episode, sees Sinitta talking about her famous exes. In Main Camp, conversation turns to Sinitta’s former flame Brad Pitt. “Did you, like, kiss and that?” Scarlett asks cheekily while the group all listen giddily.

Reflecting on the relationship in the Bush Telegraph, Sinitta confesses: “Even I do think, wow, it was nice while it lasted.”

When Scarlett asks if the memories still exist in her head, Sinitta confirms: “All I have to do is close my eyes and there he is.”

“I’d be napping all the time,” jokes Scarlett.

Sinitta tells her co-stars she dated the Fight Club actor ‘years ago’ before he was ‘famous’ and ahead of the release of Thelma & Louise in 1991. Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts tells her that was ‘prime’ Brad Pitt as they congratulate her on the experience.

Sinitta has previously revealed she dated Brad for two years in the 80s before he became a major Hollywood star. She has described him as “fun,” “sweet,” and having “the most amazing body.”

Her first high-profile romance was with singer David Essex, when she was 16 and he was 37.

Sinitta said she was initially not interested in Brad, who she thought was a ‘nobody.’

“He was in Dallas at the time and I was more of a Dynasty fan,” she said. After asking for his number, Sinitta said they went on a first date and ‘clicked immediately.’

“We were both quiet people, Christian, normal and healthy people underneath our crazy, public lifestyles and, at that point, he wasn’t really, really famous. He was just the hottest boy – drop dead gorgeous.

“Everywhere we went, all the gay guys were after him, all the girls were after him. Everybody just loved him because he was stunning.”

Declan Donnelly left stunned by intruder at his I’m A Celebrity South Africa lodge

In recent months Ant & Dec have spoken more about their televisual adventures both in front of the cameras and behind them as I’m A Celebrity South Africa kicks off

Declan Donnelly, one half of the Ant & Dec presenting duo, has said they were stunned by an intruder at their lodge on I’m A Celebrity South Africa.

The pair are out in the region presenting the latest series of the ITV programme, which features 12 celebrities, including Gemma Collins, Sinitta, Seann Walsh and Sir Mo Farah, competing for victory.

Anthony McPartlin, 50, said to Declan on their podcast Hanging Out with Ant & Dec: “Didn’t you have a bush baby in your room?” The bush babies Anthony was asking about are a type of nocturnal primate.

In response, Declan, 50, said: “In my lodge was a thatched roof, and I came back from work and my fruit bowl — there was an orange on the side — and it had been half peeled, and there was wee on the worktop.

“Somebody came round — one of the guys who come to pick us up. I said, ‘Have you seen this? Looks like wee on the side and my fruit’s had a go at.’

“He went, ‘Oh, you’ve got bush babies. They live in the thatched roof and they come down and they come at your fruit, have a wee and then they go again.’”

This isn’t the only time Ant & Dec have spoken about their lives behind the television screens, with their podcast seeing the pair speak a little more about the famous people they’ve talked to and the hilarious incidents along the way.

Notably, the pair spoke earlier this year about what it was like when they met King Charles when he was the Prince of Wales in the early 2000s, and how Declan got distracted whilst meeting the then heir to the throne.

The interview, to mark the 25th anniversary of the Prince’s Trust — now the King’s Trust — with the future monarch took place at Highgrove House. Declan recalled how Charles said that he wanted to chat with Ant & Dec off camera before the interview began so they could get to know each other.

As a result, he invited them in for tea. However, Declan said he got a bit distracted by not knowing who was going to pour the tea.

He said: “So, we went in, sat in this room, and he came in and shook our hands and we sat down and they brought in this massive tray with a big teapot, teacups on it, biscuits and stuff, and we sat there and he’s talking to us.

“I’m sitting there going, ‘Who’s going to pour the tea? He’s not going to do it. Do we do it? Are we supposed to do this? Should one of us just dive in?’ I was really distracted.

“‘Has this been left for us to do because he’s not going to do it? So have we got to do this?’ I was really distracted through the whole thing. I kind of wasn’t listening to what he was saying because I was too worried.”

Declan’s comments came ahead of the pair’s travels to South Africa to film the I’m A Celebrity spin-off, which returns to screens at 9pm tonight on ITV.

ITV viewers issue same complaint minutes into new reality show Celebrity Sabotage

ITV viewers were left saying the same thing as a new reality show debuted on Saturday night.

ITV viewers were not impressed as new reality show, Celebrity Sabotage, premiered.

The new series sees Joel Dommett, Judi Love, Sam Thompson and GK Barry sabotage ordinary people who think they are taking part in various reality shows, with the aim of winning them money.

In each episode, a fresh set of unsuspecting contestants will arrive, believing they’re participating in a brand-new ITV show. But what they don’t know is that hidden away in their very own high-tech Mission HQ are celebrity saboteurs, who are secretly watching the contestants’ every move and are being set their own sabotage missions.

Hosting the fake shows are a string of stars, including Emma and Matt Willis, Sara Davies and Clare Balding, while celebrities will also join Joel, Judi, Sam and GK to help with the sabotaging.

The first episode aired on Saturday (March 21), with a group of business enthusiasts embarking on a set of challenges under the watchful eye of entrepreneur and Dragons’ Den star Sara Davies.

The celebrity saboteurs were joined by comedian Jo Brand as they set about disrupting wedding video filming, deleting the contestant’s filmed footage, and sabotaging a wellness away-day face mask activity by using lashings of green food colouring.

After watching the first episode, several ITV viewers shared their complaints about the show’s premise.

“#CelebritySabotage This is as much fun as having a toothache, @ITV churns out some rubbish & this one is right up there. It’s a waste of our time, it makes you look forward to seeing the adverts! I’m going to sit outside & watch the car electric battery top up, a lot more fun!” one person wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

Another added: “How do programmes like these ever get commissioned. Utter rubbish,” while a third said: “What a s*** show.”

A fourth fan echoed the sentiment, saying: “This is a kids TV show that got mixed up in the schedule surely. Utterly dreadful hate watch,” with another similarly sharing: “This is appallingly bad even for ITV. How long before it’s shunted to 4.30 Sunday afternoon?”

Meanwhile, other viewers enjoyed the silliness of the show, with one person writing: “Honestly I knew I was going to like #CelebritySabotage, it’s a great show with a great cast and I really like how the fake shows are rip offs of others. Definitely will be watching next week.”

Another added: “I know it’s all very childish but I absolutely love it. This is what Saturday night telly should be,” while a third said: “This is incredible. I could listen to @1Judilove laugh all day long, absolutely howling.”

Someone else commented: “Cackled with laughter for this whole show. What a vibe.”

After two days of sabotaging, the contestants eventually found out about the celebrities’ antics, before learning that they’d won a shared prize of £29,000.

Celebrity Sabotage is available to stream on ITVX

Taylor Swift doubles her fortune to $2billion as full list of 22 celebrity billionaires is revealed

THE list of the richest celebs in the world has been revealed — and it’s good news for Taylor Swift.

The US superstar’s net worth has soared since she was named a billionaire in 2023, and she is now worth twice that.

She has risen from No9 last year to No7 in ­Forbes magazine’s annual rundown, which revealed there are now 22 celebrity billionaires — up from 18 last year.

Fellow singer Beyonce, tennis ace Roger Federer, rapper Dr Dre and filmmaker James Cameron are the new additions who have crossed the $1billion threshold.

Taylor, 36, boosted her earnings massively with profits from her record-breaking Eras Tour and the value of her music catalogue, all of ­which she now owns, having bought back the rights to her first six albums last year.

She is said to have amassed $1billion from royalties and touring, while her catalogue of hits has been valued at $900million.

The ultimate celeb perfume rich list – from Beyoncé’s £327m to Ri-Ri’s riches

The Eras 149 gigs across 21 countries from March 2023 to December 2024, made it the highest-grossing tour of all time at $2.077billion, with 10MILLION attendees.

Thanks to the money-spinning shows, she was able to buy the rights to her first six albums.

In 2019 Taylor’s former label, Big Machine, had sold the masters to talent manager Scooter Braun, prompting Taylor to vow to re-record them.

Braun sold them on to LA investment fund ­Shamrock Holdings in 2020.

But last May she announced she finally controls all her music.

Taylor said last year: “That’s how I spent that Eras Tour money. My fans are why I was able to get my music back.”

The rights to the records had been sold for more than $300million, although it is not known how much she spent to reclaim them.

But she is believed to have made an eight-figure sum in profits from the “Taylor’s Version” remakes of Fearless, Red, Speak Now, and 1989 — which all topped the charts.

She also owns $100million of real estate, including pads in New York, Beverly Hills, Rhode Island and Nashville.

The news coincides with new figures from the British Phonographic Industry, which reveal CD sales in the UK returned to growth in 2025, up 3.1 per cent, largely thanks to 226,000 copies of Taylor’s latest album The Life Of A Showgirl being sold here.

She also contributed to the 19.9 per cent year-on-year rise in vinyl purchases, thanks to 147,000 sales of the record on the format.

It meant The Life Of A Showgirl sold the most vinyl of any new album in a calendar year this century. Her 2023 collection Lover (Live From Paris), which was reissued last year, was also the fourth biggest vinyl of 2025.

Taylor has now scored six No1 singles and 14 No1 albums, ­beating Madonna’s record of 12 chart toppers for a female artist.

Taylor’s huge net worth dwarfs that of her American football star fiancé Travis Kelce, 36, whose riches total $90million.

The two are expected to marry this summer in a glittering, star-studded ceremony in the US.

Yesterday Travis hinted Taylor has started working on new music for a potential 13th studio album.     

He said: “It’s amazing to see her keep going to the table, keep finding new things to write about, keep finding new ­mel­odies and things like that.

“On top of that, still seeing her have that love and joy in what she does.

“Of course that’s motivating. That’s motivating for anybody to see, let alone in my fiancée, and knowing that I’m going through something as I try to figure out what the future holds for me.

“Something like that motivates me.”
