You read that right, it looks like our dreams are coming true as GK Barry - real name Grace Keeling - confirmed we'll be seeing "a lot more" of her and Reverend Richard Coles this year.

In an exclusive chat with Capital's Aimee Vivian, GK spoke about her close friendship with the Rev which we saw during their time on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! at the end of 2024.

On her unexpected friendship, she said: "Me and Rev are good friends, I think you'll be seeing more of us in the future."

When GK left the jungle, during her exit interview, Ant and Dec practically begged them to film her and the Rev back in the real world. Especially, when GK said Richard wanted to take her to the opera.

GK said she's looking forward to seeing more of the Rev, adding that he kept her "sane" while on the show.

With the TikToker-turned full on celeb having made her acting debut at the start of year in Harlen Coben's 'Missing You' on Netflix, Aimee asked her how she can possibly top the last year of her career.

"Just more telly stuff, a lot more of me and Rev, the [podcast] tour, some incredible podcasts and just whatever else comes my way.
