Linda Robson is backing her Loose Women co-star Jane Moore to win I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! because she won’t be fazed by the jungle

Linda Robson has broken her silence after it emerged Jane Moore will be appearing on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

The actress and broadcaster is confident that Jane will tackle every challenge in the jungle with ease. The Birds of a Feather star is certain that 62-year-old Jane has what it takes to be crowned Queen of the Jungle, thanks to her unflappable nature and determination.

Speaking at the recent London Lifestyle Awards, the Loose Women star gushed: “Jane will be Queen of the Jungle, I’m telling you now. Jane Moore will do every challenge and she won’t bat an eyelid. She’s definitely gonna be a winner.” Having shared the Loose Women panel with Jane for over a decade, Linda, who herself took part in the reality show in 2012 and came ninth, knows the ins and outs of the jungle experience.

She stressed that there are no hidden luxuries for the stars on the show; if they fail their tasks, it’s nothing but rice, beans, and water. Reflecting on her own stint, Linda remarked: “I did it in 2012. It’s like a proper detox, you don’t even get a cup of tea or anything. It was amazing honestly,” she told Simon Gross.

Jane will reportedly join the likes of Tulisa Contosavlos and Coleen Rooney in the jungle ( 

Journalist and broadcaster Jane is set to be joined in the jungle by McFly’s Danny Jones, former Strictly Come Dancing professional Oti Mabuse, N-Dubz singer Tulisa Contostavlos, Coleen Rooney – the wife of former England footballer Wayne Rooney, Coronation Street actor Alan Halsall, controversial TikTok star GK Barry, boxer Barry McGuigan, Mick McCarthy, Harry Clark, Richard Arnold and Olympian Max Whitlock.

The forthcoming series, once again hosted by Geordie duo Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, launches on November 17. But while the series is set to return with a string of big names – not everybody is paid the same amount for their time in the jungle. This year ITV bosses are said to have splashed a huge amount of cash to get Coleen Rooney on board. The WAG is said to have negotiated a fee in excess of £1.5million. The amount is more than Nigel Farage demanded last year – and notably around 15 times higher than what rival Rebekah Vardy picked up in 2017.

The pay cheque makes Coleen one of I’m A Celeb’s highest paid stars ever. With the biggest cheque cut a reported £1.5 million, to the lowest at £13,000. But it’s not just Farage who walked away with a heft pay cheque after his stint on the show. Former Deal or No Deal host Noel Edmonds pocketed a hefty £600,000.

Noel entered the jungle in 2018 for a reported fee of a whopping £600,000. Despite demanding a huge fee and being someone the production team had been chasing for years, the TV star spent very little time on the show and was the first person to be voted off. Three very different celebs, Boy George, Harry Redknapp, and Caitlyn Jenner, reportedly all walked out of the jungle with a cool £500,000. Culture Club singer Boy George ended up in eighth place during his stint in 2022. Caitlyn Jenner faired slightly better, coming in at sixth place during her time in 2019, but it was football legend Harry Redknapp who really earned his keep, coming in first and winning the nation’s hearts.

Elsewhere, Conservative supporter and Made In Chelsea star Georgia Toffolo is said to have been paid just £13,000 in 2017. Meanwhile, Hollyoaks actor Malique Thompson-Dwyer walked away with £15,000. The star went into the show in 2018 and was reportedly paid £15,000 to appear. Unfortunately, the Prince McQueen star was the second person to be voted out of the jungle.
