I'm a Celebrity stars fighting over luxury items as some are banned from camp

The I'm a Celebrity star line-up are reportedly fighting over what they should take into the jungle.

The ITV show will return to the Australian jungle on Sunday, and the 10 new famous faces will be allowed to take a luxury item in with them. However, ITV bosses don't allow the contestants to all take the same kinds of things in, so there have been some disagreements between them.

According to The Mirror, the camp would be filled with pillows and family photos if the campmates were all allowed to take the same things in. Items that could be distracting, such as books and chessboards, are also banned from the jungle.

Executive producer Olly Nash said: "This year like most years they will get an opportunity to win their luxury items, but it depends how well they get on. They're still in negotiation because we try to make sure that not everybody has the same. So we're still negotiating."

He added: "You wouldn't have books, you won't have anything like a game of chess or anything like that. So you wouldn't have anything that could be distracting, part of this game is making sure that you are creating reality and having a chat with other people and doing stuff and dealing with the boredom."

The famous faces taking part in this year's I'm a Celebrity are Chris Moyles, Olivia Attwood, Sue Cleaver, Owen Warner, Jill Scott, Charlene White, Babatunde Aléshé, Mike Tindall, Scalette Douglas, Boy George and, controversially, MP Matt Hancock, who was Health Secretary during the height of the Covid pandemic.
