The financial details behind the 25th series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! have been thrust into the spotlight after the cast's salaries were reportedly leaked online. The revelation offers a fascinating glimpse into the hefty sums ITV is paying its famous campmates to endure the trials of the Australian jungle.
Revealed: The 2025 Jungle Pay Cheques
According to the online reports, the earnings vary significantly, creating a clear hierarchy within the camp. Topping the list as the highest-paid star is Brit-award winning rapper Aitch, who is reportedly receiving a staggering £250,000 for his appearance. His upbeat personality and lyrical flair are clearly considered a valuable asset for the show's producers.
In second place is American reality star Jack Osbourne, who is set to take home an impressive £200,000. The 40-year-old has already emotionally opened up to viewers about the death of his legendary father, Ozzy Osbourne.
Mid-Tier Earners and Surprising Figures
A group of campmates are clustered around the £100,000 mark. Former Lioness and sports presenter Alex Scott and popular Twitch streamer Angry Ginge (real name Morgan Burtwistle) are both expected to earn £100,000 each. Alex hopes to show a different side to herself, while producers are banking on Angry Ginge to attract a younger audience.
Just below them, a quartet of well-known faces are each earning £95,000. This group includes American comedian Ruby Wax, the camp's oldest member at 72; Emmerdale icon Lisa Riley, who finally said 'yes' to the show; Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp, who is earning over double what his son Roman received in 2019; and EastEnders actress Shona McGarty, who is using the experience to battle her anxiety.
The Lower End of the Jungle Salary Scale
Heart radio presenter Kelly Brook is reportedly being paid £80,000 for her last-minute decision to swap her cosy studio for the rat-infested jungle. Meanwhile, comedian and presenter Eddie Kadi is at the bottom of the pay scale with a still-substantial fee of £75,000. Despite having the lowest salary among the 2025 contestants, his pay packet is a significant amount, eclipsing what many previous campmates have earned.
These leaked figures provide a compelling context for the campmates' motivations, suggesting that the financial incentive is a powerful reason to brave the gruesome Bushtucker Trials and basic living conditions. The news comes after Nigel Farage set a record in 2023 by earning £1.5 million for his stint, highlighting the vast sums ITV is willing to invest in its star talent.
