The Saturday’s star Frankie Bridge has signed up to appear in the upcoming series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, according to reports.
The 32-year-old singer joins the likes of Richard Madeley and Adam Woodyatt and is said to be following in the footsteps of her husband Wayne, who finished in fifth place on the show in 2016 behind winner Scarlett Moffatt.
‘Wayne really enjoyed his time in the Australian jungle, and Frankie is looking forward to giving the show a go too,’ an insider claimed. ‘She is pretty excited.
‘She is nervous about leaving Wayne and the boys for such a long time, but she is determined to give the challenge her all and really throw herself in.’
The source added to The Sun: ‘Though with the show in Wales this year, Wayne unfortunately won’t be much help for tips.’
An ITV spokesman said they don’t comment on speculation.

Frankie’s rumoured appearance comes after I’m A Celebrity presenters Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnely teased who is on the bill in a video shared on social media.
The Geordie duo sat at a table as a show executive presented them with headshots of the confirmed cast and burst into a selection of oohs and aahs.

The first revealed contestant excited both of the presenters, with the pair clapping before Dec laughed and Ant pumped his fists with a ‘Yes! We love it’ and Dec followed up with ‘very, very good’.
Good Morning Britain presenter Richard Madeley is one of the stars said to be lined up, with reports he’s agreed to a deal worth £200,000.
