Kelly Brook was seen arriving at Heathrow Airport as she prepared to jet off to Australia for her stint in I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! on Saturday.

Despite upcoming Bushtucker Trials the model, 45, appeared in great spirits and flashed a huge smile as she became the first star to set off down under.

Kelly cut a casual figure for the long journey in from fitting brown tracksuit which she teamed with a pair of £1,000 Chanel sandals and matching £6,000 handbag.

Shielding her eyes behind chic shades the stunner was helped with her luggage which had piled high on a trolley.

Back in 2018, Kelly said there would be ‘a million’ other things she would rather do like working in her local pub, than appear in the jungle.

‘I don’t want to eat eyeballs or sheep testicles and all the things they have to eat on there,’ she said on her Heart radio show.

‘Even if I had a huge tax bill and I had to pay it really urgently, I still wouldn’t do it.’

But It was thought she was finally persuaded by a big money deal as she joins a soap, music and comedy legends in the line-up ahead of the show’s return later this month.

A source told The Sun of Kelly’s appearance: ‘Show bosses have been after Kelly as a campmate for years and think she could possibly be their sexiest contestant ever.

‘She’s glamorous, witty and a familiar face to ITV audiences, having appeared as a panellist for Loose Women and other shows.

‘She’s guaranteed to make perfect TV viewing.’

Also heading down under is comedy legend Ruby Wax, 72, whose best known work includes TV show Girls On Top and film Shock, and she has also written for BBC programme Absolutely Fabulous.

Nowadays she’s known as a mental health expert.

A source told The Sun: ‘Ruby’s a proper TV legend and adds real gravitas to this year’s line-up. She’s interviewed some of the biggest stars in the world so will have no problem getting to know her fellow campmates.

‘It will make great TV for viewers.’

The show has also signed soap icons Shona McGarty, who played Whitney Dean on EastEnders between 2008 to 2024, and Emmerdale’s Lisa Riley, known for her role as Mandy Dingle.

They will join actor and Spandau Ballet star Martin Kemp, 64, as well as broadcasters Alex Scott, 41, and Vogue Williams, 40.

Jack Osbourne, 39, is also set to enter camp just four months after his rocker father Ozzy’s tragic death.

A source told The Sun: ‘Jack is very likely to discuss Ozzy, which will be an incredibly moving moment for the campmates and for viewers and fans of the adored rocker.’

The Black Sabbath legend died of heart failure aged 76 at his Buckinghamshire home on July 22, just two weeks after performing a farewell concert with his bandmates at Birmingham’s Villa Park.
