The Sun can reveal the pair ended up at a co-star's birthday party while filming the Channel 4 series.
A source said: 'Carlos and Amy were on the run but took a huge risk and turned up to Craig Revel Horwood's birthday party with cameras in tow - it was complete chaos as they were dodging pics and begging people not to post them!
"The hunters were on their trail the whole time - nobody can believe they got away with it.'
Amy and Carlos are up against Love Island hunks Chris Taylor and Toby Aromolaran, who'll also form a pair.
Former EastEnders star Brian Conley and his daughter Lucy, who's also an entertainer, join the line up.
Scarlette Douglas and her brother Stuart – hosts of Channel 4's Worst House On The Street – have also been announced as contestants.
Former Royal Marine and Paralympian JJ will be partnered with Sophie Morgan, which will be a Celebrity Hunted first as the presenter is a wheelchair user.
Comedians Laura Smyth and Jen Brister complete this year's line-up.
Contestants attempt to evade detection while being tracked by an elite team comprised of the world's best hunters.
Among them are serving and ex-police officers, alongside some of the UK's top cyber experts.
Celebrity Hunted viewers blast show as a 'complete set-up'
In addition, they work alongside ex-military and intelligence services personnel.
The most recent series of Celebrity Hunted saw Duncan James and Christine McGuinness triumph.
The Blue singer and former model teamed up to successfully evade capture.
Meanwhile, it was confirmed earlier this year that the show's civilian version would return for another outing.
Leon Wilson, CEO Shine TV & Zeppotron, said at the time: "We're thrilled to be back into production on two new series of Hunted in 2025 for Channel 4.
"The series was co-developed by our brilliant new Director of Programmes, Matt Bennett, who I'm delighted to say will once again be overseeing the show.
"Viewers are also in for a treat with the Celebrity version, with an ace cast of new celeb fugitives raring to go on run."

Nadine Coyle narrowly misses out on bagging £50k jackpot on Celebrity Catchphrase for late Girls Aloud bandmate Sarah Harding's charity - but would you have got the answer?
Nadine Coyle narrowly missed out on an eye-watering £50,000 on Celebrity Catchphrase, but would you have managed to get it? The Girls Aloud singer, 40, appeared on the latest episode of the star-studded ITV game show. She joined Stephen Mulhern and went up against presenter Rick Edwards and EastEnders actor Jake Wood. Nadine was on course to scoop the jackpot prize as she sailed through the rounds, making it all the way to the Super Catchphrase. Viewers watched as the Northern Irish singer even doubled the money Rick and Jake had amassed during the game by successfully getting the number 11 catchphrase. However, her luck appeared to be running out as she stumbled on the final catchphrase behind number 15. Host Stephen, 48, showed her a line of cars on a stretch of road that was running on an athletics track before Mr Chips took over. Nadine then watched as the character crossed the line and won while an arrow pointed at him. She tried her best to guess what the phrase was, offering multiple answers but unfortunately ran out of him. While she didn't scoop the jackpot, she still left the studio with a respectable £30,000 for The Sara Harding Breast Cancer Appeal with the Christie Charity. Did you guess the correct answer? Stephen told Nadine how Mr Chips was 'beating the traffic' while congratulating her on walking away with five figures. Sarah tragically died from breast cancer at just 39 years old in 2021. Nadine previously spoke about losing her band made, saying she 'lives life to the fullest' and tries to have as much fun as she can. She told The Mirror: 'I just try to enjoy it, because Sarah really enjoyed life. She made the most of so many things. That's really important. 'You can worry about so much stuff that just becomes irrelevant. Hold the people close that you love and spend time having fun, as much as you can.' Sarah found fame in 2002 when she won a place on Popstars: The Rivals with the band and took the UK by storm soon after. She 'slipped away peacefully' in September 2021 after 'fighting so strongly from her diagnosis until her last day', her mum Marie wrote on Instagram at the time.
