Coleen Rooney Joins I'm A Celebrity for Record Fee

Colleen Rooney is set to make history by earning over £1.5 million for her participation in the upcoming season of 'I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!', making her the highest-paid contestant ever, surpassing Nigel Farage's previous record. The show will premiere on November 17, featuring a lineup that also includes popular figures such as Maura Higgins and Oti Mabuse. Rooney's involvement is particularly noteworthy given her high-profile 'Wagatha Christie' saga, which has captivated the public since 2019. Her participation is expected to draw significant viewership, with fans eager to hear her take on the drama surrounding her rivalry with Rebekah Vardy. This year, ITV has reportedly invested heavily in attracting big names, raising the stakes for both contestants and audience engagement. Additionally, the ongoing connection between the outcomes of 'I'm A Celebrity' and 'Strictly Come Dancing' has sparked speculation about potential impacts on both shows' winners this season.
