JUNGLE Queen Scarlett Moffatt has broken her silence on the ITV show, and what she’ll do differently, after signing up for I’m A Celeb All Stars.
In June, insiders told The Sun the Gogglebox star is in advanced talks to join the All Stars version of the show, which starts filming in South Africa later this year.

The series, hosted by Ant and Dec, will air next year – which coincides with the ten-year anniversary of Scarlett, 34, winning the show.
And the Gogglebox icon broke her silence on the stint, as she spoke to The Sun in a campaign for M&Ms.
Scarlett admitted: “I mean, it would be amazing to do [All Stars] because it’s iconic and I just love the show so much. I was on it a whole decade ago, so I would’ve been in my early 20s and I’m a different human now.
“So I would do the trials differently. But I’d just go in and be myself, and that’s the only thing you can do.”

She continued: “I’m not sure about smashing the trials, but I’d give them my best shot. But as I’ve gotten older my fear levels have gone up. I can’t even get on rollercoasters now.”
Since starring on the show, Scarlett has paved a very successful career, as well as getting engaged to partner Scott Dobinson and welcoming son Jude.
This summer, a source told us: “Scarlett won I’m A Celeb in 2016 and was hugely popular with viewers so everyone’s really excited she might be returning for the new all stars series.
“She is so game for a laugh and knows what to expect in terms of the Bushtucker Trials so she’ll throw herself into every task.
“Scarlett is a mum now too and she wants to do the show to show her little boy just how brave she can be.
“The series is shaping up to be one of the most exciting TV shows of next year and some of the stars they’re speaking to are proper camp legends.
“This is an amazing opportunity for her and let’s face it, who wouldn’t fancy a trip to South Africa? Even if she does have to chomp down on some kangaroo testicles?”
The first series of the I’m A Celeb All Stars spin off aired back in 2023, with Carol Vorderman and Helen Flanagan losing out to Myleene Klass who was crowned the winner.
The spin off proved to be massively popular, especially with 16-34s, and saw an average of 5.2million viewers across its weeknight run.

On the topic of TV, Scarlett was chatting to The Sun about all things telly while enjoying some M&Ms, to launch Couch Confessions, a playful new pop-up experience coming to Battersea on 5th August, built around Britain’s funniest (and most relatable) TV-watching habits.
She cheekily admitted to Googling the ending of anything she’s about to watch, clearly not fussed by spoilers.
Scarlett told us: “Do you know what – and this is Scott’s pet peeve – I Google the ending of everything.
“Like psychological thrillers and all that, I’ll Google it to see who it is. But I’ll also do it with rom-coms, in case I need to mentally prepare for a dramatic scene. I don’t tell him I’ve done it, but I’ll tell him I’ve Googled it.”
Scarlett also discussed watching police dramas with her policeman fiance Scott.
“I do not watch any police programmes with Scott because he goes into work mode and I’m like, no watching telly is about switching off,” Scarlett shared, adding: “He’ll say things like ‘well if I was doing it…’ and I’m like ‘no, no, it’s not you.’”
M&Ms Couch Confessions, it’s more fun together.
