Katie Price begs ITV to sign her up to new I'm A Celeb legendary castmates series

Katie Price has said she is up for starring on a new spin-off I'm A Celebrity starring legendary contestants from the past 20 years.

The one-off special series, which is planned to air in 2023, is set to take place in South Africa and will be hosted by Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.

Former glamour model, 43, Katie took her Instagram stories on Friday, begging bosses to consider her for the show.

Alongside an article about the new show, she wrote: "Yes get me in".

Katie became a household name when she appeared on the third series on 2004 and found love with Peter Andre.

She went on to make millions with reality shows, endorsement deals, books and a whole host of product launches.

Katie returned to the ninth series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! in 2009 after her marriage with the singer, 49, broke down but she left the show voluntarily after nine days.

Filming for the spin-off series will commence later this year but there will be some big changes to the format.

ITV has yet to confirm the show or who is likely to take part.

An insider told The Mirror the special series is currently being planned to air in 2023 and Ant and Dec will host as usual, but this time it's set to take place in South Africa.

It will be the same old series with camp mates expected to take part in trials and living in camp, but it will also be very different - and not just because of the location.

It seems they must decide the fates of those taking part, as well as who does the challenges - in a twist similarly used in the Australian version of the series earlier this year.

It's been dubbed a brand new spin-off of the well-known show, while there will also be the normal jungle show launching in November as Ant and Dec head back to Australia for the first time in two years.

It's thought the series will air in 2023, and for now it seems ITV are remaining hopeful that the jungle edition will go ahead - despite worries about whether the coronavirus pandemic will halt things yet again.

I'm A Celebrity 2022 is set to launch later this year on ITV and ITV Hub.
