I'm A Celeb 2023 star Nigel Farage predicts he will be voted for all of the Bushtucker Trials.

He is also hoping he will be able to change the perception of him in some of the viewers' minds – after revealing he knows some fans may already "hate him". Ahead of his ITV debut, Nigel has said: "Given millions hate me, I do expect people will vote for me to do trials!

"I am hoping those who hate me might hate me a little bit less afterwards. But it’s a gamble. If we can dispel some of those misconceptions, then that will be a good thing too." He will be exempt from some trials due to a back injury he sustained from a plane crash in a PR stunt during the 2010 general election but viewers will still be able to vote for him to do vile eating challenges and be pelted in creepy crawlies.

The new series is set to start on Sunday (November 13) and will see a whole host of famous faces hit ITV screens. Ex-EastEnders actress Danielle Harold, who played Lola Pearce in the BBc One soap, is also set to join former MP Nigel in camp.

She is also concerned that soap viewers and co-stars will pick up the phone to vote for her to do the grim trials. Danielle said: “They won’t be able to wait for me to get back and take the mickey out of me! There is always someone every year who people love to watch and I hope it isn’t me.”

One of the biggest names on the list is Britney’s sister Jamie Lynn Spears will also be on the line-up. She has revealed she got the “all clear” from her family to do the show. Jamie Lynn said: “The first thing I had to do was talk it over with my family and my kids to make sure they were ok about me being gone for this amount of time."

This Morning presenter Josie Gibson will also be gracing the line-up and hoping to take the jungle crown. However, she's joked she's already regretting her decision to sign up.

Josie said: “I know I have taken on challenges for This Morning in the past but I don’t know if I’ve taken on too much here. It’s all becoming very real. I am dreading the insects and it’s my biggest phobia."
