I'm A Celeb LIVE: Ant and Dec left 'furious' by 2025 star as tense feud exposed

I'm A Celebrity is only days away from returning for the 2025 series. With the official line-up finally confirmed, the stars are still making their way to Australia as they get ready to say goodbye to their luxuries.

Emmerdale's Lisa Riley, Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp, Jack Osbourne, comedian Ruby Wax, Kelly Brook, rapper Aitch, social media star Angry Ginge, EastEnders star Shona McGarty, comedian Eddie Kadi, and BBC star Alex Scott are set to appear in the jungle.

However, it was reported that one star, Nick Ferrari, pulled out of the show at last minute. The veteran broadcaster, 66, reportedly sat down with ITV but it has been claimed LBC bosses intervened to stop him from jetting Down Under. According to reports the radio station offered to match any fee Nick had been offered to appear on I'm A Celeb in a bid to keep him on the airwaves.

A source revealed: "[Radio bosses] pledged to match any fee he was set to receive as they consider him such a vital and well-loved part of the LBC schedule.

"Ultimately, Global was able to flex its financial muscles and managed to keep their man. If he had signed up, he would have been off air for up to six weeks which they were keen not to happen."

"Nick is really well liked by those working on LBC and everyone thinks he has played a blinder by getting a payrise out of it," they added to The Sun.
