I’m A Celebrity… Get me Out of Here! has reportedly snapped up Strictly snogger Seann Walsh.

The comedian became the most talked about man in Britain when he was pictured kissing his married Strictly partner Katya Jones in 2018 while his fiancé Rebecca Humphries waited for him at home on her birthday.

After being at the centre of Strictly’s biggest ever storm, Walsh is now expected to be heading to the jungle where ITV bosses are said to be salivating that he might spill more on that infamous smooch outside a London pub.

‘Seann is an incredible signing for I’m A Celebrity and it’s a real coup for ITV,’ an insider told The Sun.

‘His snog with Katya is the biggest scandal to have ever hit Strictly. People still talk about it.

‘Seann has joked about his snog with Katya in his comedy sketches but he’s never spoken in detail about their relationship.

‘Life in the jungle is boring and those long hours around the campfire would be the perfect time for Seann to get talking.’

After a photo of Walsh and Jones’ kiss was leaked, he split from Humphries who claimed he had called her ‘psycho/nuts/mental’ for suspecting the pair were more than just Strictly partners.
