A source told the publication: ‘LeAnn loved her time on the UK show, but wants to focus on her career in the States.
‘She was hugely popular with cast and crew and everybody loved having her as part of the team.
‘Bosses are currently on the lookout for another female singer to join the all-star line-up, they haven’t made a decision just yet but are having conversations.’
MailOnline has contacted ITV for comment.
It will mark the first major TV gig I’m A Celeb winner Danny has had since the fallout from his controversial snog with campmate Maura Higgins.
He previously featured on screens during a one-off children’s event at Buckingham Palace but this will be his first major TV project since the scandal.
He and his wife Georgia’s marriage was rocked after Danny shared a drunken kiss with campmate Maura at a Universal Records party.
Further reports claimed the pair had continued their night until 6am, sharing wine together at Nobu Hotel bar.
Danny, who apologised to his wife and family for ‘putting them in this situation’, has stayed living at the couple’s West London home, where Georgia moved to on her own as he appeared on the ITV jungle series in December.
Danny, 39, will once again be joining forces with McFly bandmate Tom Fletcher, 38, and they will share a seat on the panel alongside long-time mentors Sir Tom Jones and Will.i.am

His wife Georgia is said to no longer have a ‘normal relationship’ with the singer and are living under the same roof but have ‘separate lives’ (pictured 2024)
Sources claimed to MailOnline that despite their efforts, Danny and Georgia are like ‘passing ships’ and friends fear their relationship is hanging on by a thread.
A source told MailOnline: ‘Danny and Georgia have been trying to navigate a very difficult time in their marriage and for the best part they have been taking each day as it comes.
‘They may be living under the same roof, but they barely see each other and right now are like passing ships.
‘Danny is preparing for his summer gigs with McFly, and Georgia has been attending influencer events and collaborating with brands, all while looking after son, Cooper, who regularly features on her Instagram profile.
‘But when they’re not working, Danny is out on his motorbike or exercising in the gym, and Georgia is either on her own or spending time with family and girlfriends.
‘They haven’t actually been publicly seen together for six weeks and behind the scenes, their relationship is anything but normal.’
