I'm A Celeb's 2022 stars set to make the most cash after show as their fame sky-rockets

I'm A Celeb 2022 stars have finished their jungle journeys and the ITV reality show has certainly bolstered their profiles.

Last night's show saw an epic end to the 2022 series as viewers saw Lioness Jill Scott crowned 'Queen Of The Jungle' in the show’s first return to the Australian jungle since the pandemic.

And although show contestants get handed a handsome fee for appearing on the show, researchers have predicted who this series' top earners' could be as the stars cash in on their heightened fame.

Coming out top in the table of estimated earners is Hollyoaks actor Owen Warner.

Some may be more familiar with on screen alter ego Romeo Nightingale, a role which earned the actor a ‘Best Soap Newcomer’ award back in 2018.

But according to the research which measured the Instagram earning power of the final five contestants — by calculating how much they could make with a sponsored post — he came out top.

According to their calculations Warner could make up to £1,503 from a commercial Instagram entry, which is a huge 38% increase from the beginning of the program, and the second highest % gain among all the analysed participants.

Meanwhile Queen of the Jungle Jill Scott MBE came out in second spot.

After hanging up her boots in August of this year, the former footballer opted to take on the challenge of the Australian jungle.

During that time her potential Instagram earnings have surged by 32%, to £1,208 per post.

Meanwhile fellow MBE and former sporting professional Mike Tindall is ranked third.

A rugby World Cup winner with England back in 2003, Tindall could make a possible £1,037 for a sponsored post on the popular social media site. This is a 20% jump from the outset of the series, where he has gained more than 40,000 followers.

Suspended Tory MP Matt Hancock ranked in fourth position. The controversial figure’s potential revenue per post has grown by a quarter during his time in the New South Wales jungle, to £544.

But Comedian and former Strictly Come Dancing contestant Seann Walsh is at the foot of the rankings. However, Walsh’s possible Instagram earnings have seen the largest % gain among the show’s final five, up 53% to a possible £418 per entry.
