Meanwhile, insiders say singer and TV star Tulisa Contostavlos is reportedly planning to launch her showbiz come back on this year's show.
Tulisa is best known for being a member of grime band N-Dubz, and was also a judge on The X Factor.
A source told The Sun: "Tulisa has been on ITV's hit list for a while but until now she's never wanted to consider it.
"This year is a decade since she left The X Factor so she felt the time was right to return to the TV spotlight - the amazing reception to the N-Dubz reunion tour really helped build her confidence.
"Crucially for ITV, the breadth of her career means that she will appeal to I'm a Celebrity's wide audience. As well as everyone knowing her from The X Factor, her original music fanbase has boomed thanks to the N-Dubz reunion tour.
"TV bosses are particularly excited by the new wealth of fans in the crucial 16 to 24 age range who have discovered Tulisa and the band through TikTok and everyone hopes the deal is signed soon."
