Comedian Babatunde Aleshe, known for Celebrity Gogglebox, is reportedly in the lineup for I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

Comedian Babatunde Aleshe has reportedly signed up to appear on this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

The show returns for a new series later this month and for the first time since 2019, it will be back in the Australian jungle after two years in Wales due to coronavirus.

The celebs in the lineup are preparing to fly down under in the coming weeks, and according to The Sun, Aleshe, who appears with Mo Gilligan on Celebrity Gogglebox, will be on the plane.

"Bosses are really excited to have Babatunde in the mix," a source told the newspaper.

"He's become a firm favourite with Celebrity Gogglebox viewers and producers reckon he'll be a great campmate.

"He's been doing stand-up for years but it's his banter and constant one-liners with best mate Mo on Celebrity Gogglebox that really impressed the casting team.

"It's a great opportunity for him to head to the jungle."

Other celebs thought to be in the lineup include pop legend Boy George and Hollyoaks star Owen Warner.
