How much Ant and Dec get paid for presenting I’m A Celeb after winner won't be rewarded cash prize

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’s return is right around the corner, meaning a brand new cohort of celebrities are gearing up to head Down Under.

The beloved ITV reality series is set to chronicle the likes of GK Barry, 25, Coleen Rooney, 38, and more as they take on Bushtucker Trials and swap luxury for the Australian wilderness.

It’s also been confirmed that I’m A Celeb’s long-standing hosts Ant McPartlin, 48, and Declan Donnelly, 49 will return to the helm on Sunday 17 November while last year’s King of the Jungle Sam Thompson, 32, will front the revived spin-off programme, I’m a Celebrity: Unpacked.

The former Made in Chelsea star will be joined in the ITV studio by 2016’s runner-up Joel Dommett, 39, and Capital FM presenter Kemi Rodgers.

Ant and Dec - whose friendship began on the set of BBC’s Byker Grove - have remained a formidable duo in television ever since their first presenting gig in 1994.

With shows like SMTV, Britain’s Got Talent and Saturday Night Takeaway already under their belts, the pair were cast as the hosts of I’m A Celeb in 2002 and the rest is history.

But how much do the pair get paid for hosting the beloved

Last November, radio station Capital FM stated that the dynamic duo were raking in a tidy £3.3 million a month.

This fee is allegedly part of their three-year exclusive £40 million deal contract with ITV, meaning they couldn’t work with any other broadcaster or streaming service other than ITV.

The outlet reports that this agreement sees Ant and Dec getting paid one total sum for all their work on the various programmes on the network.

And talking of money, this year’s King or Queen of the Jungle will not be awarded a cash prize at the end of the competition.

The reason is because ITV bosses have decided the contestants will instead receive a flat fee for appearing on the show.

According to Metro, the only condition for receiving such a fee is that campmates must remain in the jungle for at least 72 hours.

This means that if any of the contestants, such as McFly’s Danny Jones or former Strictly Come Dancing star Oti Mabuse win, they won’t be taking home a lump sum cash prize.

Instead, they will leave the jungle with a pre-agreed set fee under the condition of making it through the first three days.

While the celebs are paid a flat fee to appear on I'm A Celeb, the amount reportedly varies from contestant to contestant.

It’s also thought the fee can skyrocket depending on how famous the star in question is.

Wayne Rooney’s wife Coleen is rumoured to have received the highest fee ever to take part, rumoured to be £5 million.

Getting Coleen secured for this year's season was definitely a major win for the network with a TV insider reportedly telling The Sun: "ITV bosses hope Coleen will spill the beans on life with hubby Wayne and her epic fallout with Rebekah Vardy, who starred in the show back in 2017."

The source added: "I’m A Celeb bosses have pulled off a huge coup."

Tyla has previously reached out to ITV for comment.

Joining Coleen, GK Barry, Danny and Oti in New Wales are Loose Women star Jane Moore, Radio 1's Dean McCullough, N-Dubz singer Tulisa and boxing promoter Barry McGuigan.

The likes of Radio DJ Melvin Odoom, Coronation Street star Alan Halsall, Love Island icon Maura Higgins, and BBC radio host Rev Richard Coles will also be joining the mix.
