Who’s on I’m a celeb in 2025?

ITV unveiled the full Series 25 cast on November 10, 2025 — and it was a mix of seasoned TV faces, entertainers, and relative newcomers. The format split contestants into two entry groups, with two late arrivals announced later in the run.

Group 1 entrants

  • Aitch — MOBO and Brit award-winning rapper from Manchester, real name Harrison Armstrong, entered with a personal mission: raising awareness for Down Syndrome, which his sister Gracie lives with.
  • Eddie Kadi — comedian and radio presenter
  • Kelly Brook — model, radio DJ, and actress who previously appeared in Celebrity Race Across the World
  • Martin Kemp — former Spandau Ballet bassist and actor
  • Shona McGarty — former EastEnders actress who played Whitney Dean

Group 2 entrants

  • Alex Scott — former England player and MBE recipient
  • Angry Ginge — social media personality, later crowned Series 25 winner
  • Jack Osbourne — reality TV veteran and media personality
  • Lisa Riley — Emmerdale actress
  • Ruby Wax — actress, comedian, and television presenter with OBE, who rose to fame in the 1990s with high-profile celebrity interviews

Late arrivals

Tom Read Wilson and Vogue Williams were confirmed as late arrivals on November 19, 2025, joining the competition several days after the initial launch.

Ant and Dec returned as presenters for Series 25, while Joel Dommett and Kemi Rodgers fronted the spin-off show I’m a Celebrity: Unpacked.

Bottom line: Angryginge’s win marks a breakthrough for social media personalities in the jungle, with Tom Read Wilson’s runner-up finish proving that late arrivals can still reach the final stages.

Who are the celebrities in the jungle in 2025?

Beyond their public profiles, each contestant brought distinct backgrounds to camp — and several had notable goals beyond the prize.

  • Kelly Brook arrived as a recognizable face across British TV, with credits including Celebrity Race Across the World and ongoing radio work.
  • Ruby Wax entered as an OBE recipient and veteran interviewer, bringing decades of media experience to the jungle.
  • Aitch represented a different kind of celebrity — an award-winning musician whose primary goal was shining a light on Down Syndrome awareness.
  • Martin Kemp brought his Spandau Ballet legacy and acting chops, while Shona McGarty carried her EastEnders fanbase.
  • Jack Osbourne joined as a reality TV veteran, experienced in competitive reality formats.
Editor’s note

The full cast announcement on November 10 came from ITV’s official channels, with Wikipedia documenting the complete roster and elimination sequence throughout the run.

Who’s going to the jungle in 2025?

The confirmed line-up drew from entertainment, sport, and social media — creating one of Series 25’s strongest mixed casts in years. ITV’s announcement came ahead of the November 16 launch show.

Full confirmed line-up

The table below shows the complete roster with entry group assignments.

Contestant Background Entry

The entry order shaped early alliances, with Group 1 campmates entering first on November 16 and Group 2 following. Tom Read Wilson and Vogue Williams arrived November 19, giving late entrants less time to build alliances but more surprise factor with existing campmates.

The upshot

Tom Read Wilson’s runner-up finish demonstrates that joining mid-series does not necessarily disadvantage contestants in the final standings.
