As we creep closer to the all important I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! launch date, more names have been added to the rumoured line up.

Tommy Fury, who recently split from Molly-Mae Hague, was tipped to be on the show this winter, but following a supposed 'more lucrative deal' he has reportedly stepped away from the iconic ITV show.

Recently it was said that Coleen Rooney has made this year's line up. And now, McFly's Danny Jones is going to be on the show, according to the tabloids.

Is Danny Jones going to be on I'm A Celeb 2024?

A tabloid source said: "As well as bringing some of the star appeal of the group with him, he'll be supplying some serious guy candy for the campmates and viewers at home.

"All the McFly guys are gym fanatics and Danny in particular has a great physique - which he's bound to show off in the jungle."

"He'll be keeping up with the proud tradition of I'm A Celebrity hunks who've been on the show over the years including Owen Warner and Joel Dommett," they added.

"And he'll fill the jungle hunk gap left by Tommy Fury after he declined the opportunity earlier this month."

His bandmate Dougie Poynter won I'm A Celeb in 2011 and the wife of lead vocalist Tom Fletcher, Giovanna Fletcher, also won the show in 2020.

The McFly star married wife Georgia Horsley back in 2014 and they welcomed their six-year-old son Cooper in 2018.

As well as recently announcing a battle of the bands tour with Busted at McFly's 21st anniversary performance, Danny has been working as a coach on singing competition The Voice UK alongside Tom.

Their prodigy Ava Mannings from Downend, South Gloucestershire won the show this year, perhaps foreshadowing a winning streak for Danny.
