I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! returned to our screens for another year, but from YouTuber Nella Rose to former politician Nigel Farage, how much were the celebrities paid?
ITV don't reveal how much each constant is being paid but it is know that depending on the celeb they are usually paid between £30,000 and £600,000. But this year, it is said that ex-MEP Nigel exceeded this and was paid a whopping £1.5 million.

This year's line up ranged from restauranteur Fred Sirieix to JLS singer Marvin Humes, so how much were they paid, who was paid the most, and who was paid the least? Here's the full payout list.
How much are the I'm A Celebrity contestants paid?
The I'm A Celeb stars are paid a set fee to appear on the show, but this amount varies from contestant to contestant. These are the payouts that have been reported, however ITV have not confirmed these figures:
- Nigel Farage - £1.5 million
- Grace Dent - £100,000
- Josie Gibson - £100,000
- Jamie Lynn Spears – Around £250,000
- Fred Sirieix - £150,000
- Marvin Humes - £150,000
- Sam Thompson - £80,000
- Danielle Harold - £70,000
- Nick Pickard - £70,000
- Nella Rose - £40,000
Something we have learned is that the celebs have to stay in the jungle for a minimum of 72 hours if they are to receive any cash - that's to stop anyone walking out too soon. Grace Dent and Jamie Lynn left after the first week and were still entitled to their pay packets.
This year Nigel had the largest pay out and Nella reportedly had the smallest. 2022 runner up Owen Warner was paid the least last year, but that doesn't mean he is worse off. In previous years, stars of I'm A Celeb have managed to negotiate higher fees and lucrative sponsorship deals off the back of the show.
How much are Ant and Dec Paid for I'm A Celebrity?
The show's hosts Ant and Dec are said to make an estimated £3.3 million each a month for their time with ITV. And they are said to have signed a £40 million 'golden handcuffs' contract with ITV for three years’ worth of work with the channel.
