Fleur was runner-up in the X Factor in 2014 and The Sun exclusively revealed that she could be set to go Down Under.

A jungle insider said: “She’s part of the ITV family.

“The relationship is already there and they are just negotiating a deal at the moment.

Fleur got to No3 in the charts with her catchy song Sax in 2015 but failed to make a ­similar splash with her debut album Love, Sax And Flashbacks.

In October 2017 she parted ways with Simon’s record label and has not released any music since, despite insisting she wanted to continue ­singing.

Speaking in August 2018 about the prospect of appearing on another reality show, she admitted: “I’ve been approached by a few shows like Strictly and I’m A Celeb, but it’s never quite the right time.

“We’ll have to see if they come knocking again. I would like to do one at some point, if it was right.”

Emily has reportedly been signed up for a trip Down Under in the hopes that it could boost her career.

A jungle insider said: “I’m A Celeb approached Emily a while ago and she jumped at the chance.

“She is fed up of doing indie movies and wants some stability in the UK with a big telly gig with lots of coverage."

Emily played Charlotte Hinchcliffe, the love interest of Simon Bird’s Will McKenzie in E4’s The Inbetweeners from 2008 to 2010.

Producers are hoping she will spill the beans on Strictly star Seann Walsh who she had a fling with.

The comedian - dumped by furious ­Rebecca last week after he was pictured snogging TV dance partner Katya Jones — went on a string of dates with the Inbetweeners star.

In the following days, flirty photos of Seann and Emily taken in December 2016 were leaked online.

A source told The Sun On Sunday: "They were really keen on each other. Emily told people she was in love with Seann."

Who else could be joining Fleur and Emily on I'm a celebrity?

These celebs are also being tipped to appear:

What happened on I'm a Celebrity 2017?

Made In Chelsea's Georgia Toffolo was crowned the Queen of the Jungle.

Georgia, known as Toff, could barely contain her joy at being named the winner.

She told Ant and Dec: "I don’t know what to say. Obviously, I didn’t think anyone would like me, never mind… sorry, I’m really taken aback.

"Thank you so much, I don’t know what to say, I’m really shocked! Sorry!  Is this real?

The show was marred with some claims that the campmates were bullying Iain Lee  who finished third.

Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas came second.

 

When is I'm a Celebrity back on TV?

No date has been confirmed for I’m A Celebrity 2018.

But it is likely to start in November and end in December 2018.

ITV will again air the show after agreeing on a new two-year-deal before the start of the last series.

The show usually runs for three weeks.

Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford officially announce that Holly Willoughby will be joining Declan Donnelly in the jungle for the latest series of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!
