A fresh batch of famous faces have officially traded their home comforts for creepy crawlies in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! Australia.
After weeks of cryptic hints, altered voice notes of the celebrities and fan speculation, viewers can finally stop guessing, with the confirmed cast now revealed.
Although the full line-up is usually kept secret until contestants quite literally parachute into camp, Network 10 broke tradition this year by announcing the celebrities and their chosen charities before the first episode last night.
However, two more unnamed campmates will be announced tonight!
Concetta Caristo
If you’ve tuned into Triple J’s breakfast slot lately, chances are you’ve already encountered Concetta Caristo.
The 31-year-old Australian comedian and radio host has been making waves on the stand-up circuit since 2019, before stepping into the Triple J breakfast presenter role in 2022.
Known for her high-energy humour and playful personality, Concetta is sure to deliver plenty of laughs in the South African jungle.
Gary Sweet
A familiar face to Australian TV audiences, Gary Sweet has been a mainstay of local film and television for decades.
Sweet played Lewis Crabb on House Husbands, appearing on the series from 2012 to 2017, and in a fun twist of fate, his on-screen wife was played by Julia Morris– who now hosts I’m A Celeb.
Deni Hines
During the 1990s, pop star Deni Hines was a constant presence on the airwaves.
Hines is the daughter of legendary Australian singer Marcia Hines and first made her mark in the early 1980s, collaborating with Rockmelons on a string of releases that helped launch her career.
She later stepped out on her own, finding solo success with fan favourites like It’s Alright and Water for Chocolate.
More recently, in 2019, Deni returned to the spotlight as a contestant on The Masked Singer.
Nath Valvo
Nath Valvo is shaping up to be one of this season’s comedy standouts. After years of touring the country and honing his craft on stage, he’s become a familiar and much-loved face in the Australian comedy scene.
Audiences may also recognise him from his appearances on The Cheap Seats, Spicks and Specks and Talking About Your Generation.
Rebekah Elmaloglou
Rebekah Elmaloglou is practically Australian soap royalty.
Now 51, the actress has spent decades lighting up local TV screens, first catching audiences’ attention on E Street before securing a high-profile role on Home and Away, where she appeared from 1990 to 1993.
In 2013, she made a major debut on Ramsay Street, stepping into the role of Terese Willis on Neighbours.
Barry Williams
Fans of The Brady Bunch are in for a nostalgic treat, with a true TV icon set to swap suburbia for the jungle on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!.
Barry Williams, now 71, rose to fame as Greg Brady, the eldest son in the beloved 1970s sitcom.
He even returned to the Brady universe in more recent years, appearing in the 2019 reality series A Very Brady Renovation, proving that the Brady legacy is still going strong.
Dyson Heppell
Former AFL footballer Dyson Heppell is another contestant on this year’s series.
Heppell played for Essendon from 2011–2024, including as captain for six years.
The sports star will be competing for his chosen charity- Very Special Kids.
Rachel Hunter
Rachel Hunter is a New Zealand–born model and actress who has appeared on the covers of some of the world’s biggest magazines, including Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and Sports Illustrated.
She famously married singer Rod Stewart in the 1990s, with the pair tying the knot when Rachel was 24, before separating in 1999.
Her reality TV credentials include competing on Dancing with the Stars in the US in 2005 and later serving as a judge on New Zealand’s Got Talent.
Luke Bateman
Luke Bateman’s first jungle announcement was made in a collab post on Instagram between Luke, Channel 10 and the official I’m A Celeb Instagram page.
“I’ll be going into the jungle representing my charity, Farm Angels, which is a charity very close to my heart. They do amazing work in my community and I’m very excited to see what Robert and Julia have cooked up for me,” Bateman said.
Mia Fevola
Who would’ve guessed we’d see the child of a former I’m A Celebrity champ stepping into the jungle?
Mia Fevola is the daughter of ex-footballer Brendan Fevola, who won season two in 2016- earning her the unofficial title of “jungle royalty.”
The 26-year-old is more than just her famous dad’s daughter: she’s a model, content creator, makeup artist, and holds a marketing degree.
She also competed on Dancing With The Stars back in 2015.
