Excitement is building as the latest season of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! gears up for its explosive launch next week. With Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly back at the helm, a fresh batch of 12 celebrities is poised to dive into the Australian jungle for a whirlwind of trials, drama, and survival antics. But one fan-favorite face has just dropped a bombshell hint that he’s ready to join the fray—straight from Down Under!
Clarkson’s Farm breakout star Kaleb Cooper, who recently celebrated the arrival of his third child, has sparked massive speculation with a cheeky Instagram Stories post. Sharing a map of his location, he teased: “Just looked at the map for where I am and I must say I’m very close to the I’m A Celeb camp site [wink emoji].” The timing couldn’t be more perfect, as Kaleb is currently in Australia filming his brand-new solo series, Kaleb: Down Under. This adventure follows the charming farmer as he explores one of the world’s biggest agricultural hubs, marking his first-ever international trip.
Reflecting on the project, Kaleb previously shared his excitement: “I spend most of my time with the most travelled man in the world, so I got brave and booked my first ever flight to see what all the fuss was about. Australia here I come!” It’s a bold step for the down-to-earth star, who’s become a household name for his hilarious banter and no-nonsense attitude alongside Jeremy Clarkson.
When quizzed about I’m A Celeb in the past, Kaleb admitted he’d be open to the challenge—but timing was key. At the time, he didn’t even have a passport, as reported by The Express. Fast-forward to now: passport in hand, boots on Australian soil, and that intriguing wink emoji. Could this be the confirmation fans have been craving? An appearance in the jungle would undoubtedly thrill audiences, blending his rustic charm with the show’s wild trials.
Social media is ablaze with enthusiasm. One X user gushed: “I’ve seen Kaleb Cooper is travelling to Australia to film a Prime Video show. Hopefully he takes a break from filming to go in as a late entrant on I’m A Celeb because he would be fantastic on there.” Another chimed in: “Love seeing Kaleb Cooper on TV more and more, get him on I’m A Celeb next!” A third fan declared: “Get him on this year’s I’m A Celeb. Kaleb Cooper would be hilarious!”
While rumors swirl, The Sun has leaked a tantalizing lineup of rumored contestants, including soap star Shona McGarty, model Kelly Brook, Spandau Ballet’s Martin Kemp, comedian Eddie Kadi, footballer Alex Scott, comedy legend Ruby Wax, reality TV’s Jack Osbourne, Emmerdale actress Lisa Riley, rapper Aitch, presenter Vogue Williams, streamer Angry Ginge, and Celebs Go Dating’s Tom Read Wilson. But with Kaleb’s proximity to the camp and his playful tease, could he be a surprise late addition shaking up the mix?
As the show kicks off in just one week, these stars will battle bugs, Bushtucker Trials, and each other for the coveted crown of King or Queen of the Jungle. If Kaleb does step into the spotlight, expect fireworks—his straight-talking style could make for unforgettable TV gold. Stay tuned; the jungle just got a whole lot more exciting!
