Legendary I'm A Celeb winner and iconic TV star who lasted 72 HOURS on the 'brink of All Stars comeback' as second season heads to South Africa
And that is none other than Jungle King Harry Redknapp and Gemma Collins, according to The Sun.
The popular former Spurs boss, 78, is said to be set for another huge pay after reportedly earning £500,000 on 2018's main series.
Meanwhile, Gemma is also on the verge of landing a mega-deal - reputed to be over £150,000 - despite quitting 2014's main show after just three days.
A source told the publication: 'It's going to be a real coup.
'Harry is TV gold and was first on the list of wannabe celebrity contestants.'
MailOnline has contacted Gemma's and Harry's representative and ITV for comment.
All Stars will be filmed this autumn and go out in the New Year.
Harry is said to be the most popular contestant to ever have appeared on the series.
A peak audience of 12.1million viewers tuned in to watch Harry be crowned the King of the Jungle on the finale, capping off weeks of record-breaking numbers for ITV's 16-year-old ratings juggernaut.
Bosses at ITV revealed that the finale gave one of the show its highest peak audience of the series, with average viewing numbers of 10.9million.
Based on seven-day consolidated data, the series averaged 12.2 million viewers, making it the highest rating series in the show's history.
Speaking after his win, Harry said: 'I'm amazed I survived three weeks to be honest with you.
'When I first came in, I looked and I thought, "Oh my God, I'm in trouble here." I looked at the group and I thought, they don't really know or are interested in anything I'm interested in.
'I thought it's going to be a hard couple of weeks but they just dragged me through it, every one of them.
'They're the most lovely people I've ever met, the whole group. There wasn't one person I could ever say one single bad word about. They were amazing.
'Without them, I would never have survived. They really have helped me. They pulled me up hills, they've dragged me through the water.
'They've been pushing me; "C'mon Harry get up, you can do it".'
Meanwhile, Gemma headed Down Under back in 2014, but only lasted in the jungle for three days before jetting back to the UK.
Following her abrupt exit over a decade ago, Gemma admitted she would be willing to give the jungle another go if given the chance.
She told the Sun in 2015: 'Everything would be different a second time. I'd be like Lara Croft and Angelina Jolie rolled into one, and I'd do the tasks.
'I'm not scared of nothing. Hopefully one day the producers may give me another chance.'
And the reality star has previously vowed to stay until the end, telling the Mirror ahead of her jungle adventure: 'I think that I'm going to find it extremely tough; like every time I think about it, I feel sick, actually.
'It's going to be difficult for me, but, you know, no one takes the GC down. Yeah, every time I feel down, I'm just going to take a deep breath, and go, "You can do this. You can do it." That's what I'm going in with, that mindset. Nothing can kill me.'
During her appearance on the show, the GC was seen complaining over the lack of food and far-from plush environment, leading many fans to suggest this was the reason she left.

Loose Women's Jane Moore 'in shock' as she recalls last meeting with Ozzy Osbourne
Loose Women star Jane Moore made a special appearance on the lunchtime chat show to recall her friendship with the late Black Sabbath star Ozzy Osbourne following his death TV star Jane Moore has recalled her last meeting with her close friend Ozzy Osbourne before he died. The Loose Women star, 63, was close friends with the Black Sabbath rocker and his wife Sharon. And, following his death on Tuesday at the age of 76 following numerous health issues, she has recalled going to his final gig just weeks ago and explained that he was "nervous" before he went on stage. The journalist is currently on holiday but appeared on the ITV lunchtime show via video link where she spoke of her 'shock' at his death. She said: "It was an incredible shock. I'm on holiday out in France and I first got a call mid-afternoon. To be honest, I didn't believe it. Ozzy has been subject to so many online hoaxes about his death over the years so I just thought it was another one. I only saw him just over two weeks ago when he did his farewell concert with Black Sabbath in Villa Park Birmingham, which is just a couple of minutes from the house he grew up in. "As everyone knows, Ozzy, because of Parkinson's, was in a wheelchair so they had to work out how to get out of him. Quite an achievement, he sang four solo songs and then four with Black Sabbath sitting down." Discussing her last meeting with Ozzy, which occurred backstage before the gig, Jane said: "Sharon took me to see him in his dressing room just before he went on stage and he was nervous because it was his home town and his home crowd but it was an unqualified success. " Jane also pointed out just how "sad" Ozzy's passing is because he was very much compos mentis up until the end, as she said: "I stayed for a bit after the concert and when I left, there was loads of crowds still hanging around. Big, tough looking biker fans just crying with joy at having seen their idol. It's incredibly sad because mentally, he was still there." The former I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here star, who spoke to Kaye Adams, Coleen Nolan, Kelle Bryan and Sue Cleaver, even moved in with the Osbourne clan when she was working as a ghost writer on Sharon's memoir and recalled having early morning chats with the late rock star during that time, and explained: "I'd wake up very early in the morning, write up yesterday's notes before the next day started. But Ozzy used to get up really early to talk to me and because I trained as a journalist in Birmingham, I'm used to the accent so I could understand it when a lot of people in LA just didn't know what he was saying. He was so he was pleased to have someone to chat with, and he had so many funny stories." Last year, Jane was invited to interview Sharon on her UK tour, and spoke about how the pair were dedicated to each other right up until the end despite the 'tempestuous' nature of their marriage. She said: "They had a tempestuous marriage, I did a Sharon with tour last year, she did a talk show on stage where I interviewed her. "She's probably the most honest person I've interviewed in my life. She freely admitted they were co-dependent, she said 'I can't live without him and he can't live without me...' and he used to say the same." News of Ozzy's death broke on Wednesday evening, and it came after a number of health woes for the legendary music star. The family statement announcing his death read: "It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love. "We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis." The family message was preceded by a location stamp, that read: "Birmingham, England July 22, 2025" - revealing that Ozzy made it back home for one last time.

Jesy Nelson opens up on life saving surgery with miracle twins in emotional This Morning interview
This Morning welcomed Jesy Nelson and her partner Zion on to the show with their identical twin daughters who were born 31 weeks premature following a high risk surgery to save their lives. Jesy Nelson has appeared on This Morning in her first public appearance with her baby twin daughters Ocean Jade Nelson-Foster and Story Monroe Nelson-Foster to speak about her life threatening pregnancy and birth. The ex Little Mix star and her partner, Zion, welcomed their two baby girls on May 15 this year, who were born 31 weeks premature, after a highly complicated pregnancy. They both appeared on Wednesday afternoon's instalment of the ITV show alongside hosts Alison Hammond and Ben Shephard to chat about their terrifying journey to parenthood in an attempt to raise awareness about the complications of identical twin pregnancies. With Jesy holding Ocean Jade, and Story Munroe in Zion's arms, the singer could be seen wearing an adorable necklace with the names of both of her daughters on it, who are just 69 days old. Little Ocean Jade and Story Munroe are a rare form of identical twins known as monochorionic-diamniotic (mono/di) twins. This means they share a single placenta which can lead to problems due to an unequal blood flow and nutrient distribution between the two babies. This specific type of twin pregnancy is associated with twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS). Jesy unfortunately developed this condition while she was in the early stages of her pregnancy. In a throwback clip played on the ITV show, Jesy was seen telling the camera: "I am currently pre stage TTTS which is twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome. Every time I've gone it's gotten a little better worse. It could lead to both babies dying. it's just really sad that unfortunately it does come with its complications which we had no idea about." The singer, 34, explained that they only became aware of the serious issues that can occur with mono/di twins after she received her scan. She said: "I couldn't believe the percentages and what could potentially happen to them. I almost felt like from the point I couldn't really enjoy my pregnancy because I was just constantly worried that something was going to happen. The doctors told us they take it like two weeks at a time. "We didn't even want to announce it. I actually had a threatened miscarriage as well so I was like I don't even want to announce it." Jesy, who kept fans well updated with her pregnancy after they did announce it, uploaded a follow up clip where she said: "Unfortunately the symptoms have got worse and we had to perform the procedure. It's necessary because it's going to give our babies the best chance of surviving. "Just hoping and praying for the best really." Jesy went from pre TTTS to needing an emergency procedure to save her babies overnight after receiving weekly scans since she first fell pregnant. She said she knew something was wrong when she and Zion both noticed her stomach had become very tight - a known symptom of TTTS. The high risk procedure involved putting a telescope into the wound and identifying the blood vessels that are creating the uneven flow of blood. They are then burned away with a laser, leaving the baby with their own part of the placenta and an equal flow of blood between the two. Jesy spent more than two weeks in hospital after undergoing the high risk procedure. Recalling the emotions they went through at the time, dad Zion admitted he felt 'hopeless' but 'remained positive' for Jesy and their girls. Dr Ruwan Wimalasundera performed the procedure on Jesy and was branded a 'hero' by the singer as he joined the new parents on the show to explain more about the condition. He told Ben and Alison: "Monochorionic identical twins share a single placenta and even though each baby has its own part of that placenta, there are blood vessels that join the two together so in effect they share a single circulation which does mean more complications such as TTTS and anything that happens to one baby has a direct impact on the other baby. "Twin to twin occurs in about 15% so about one in six of these pregnancies." He continued: "It's related to the blood vessels that join the two parts of the blood circulation together. Normally they allow blood to flow in both directions so its an equal flow of blood but when you develop twin to twin, there's an unequal flow of blood so one baby is getting just too little blood. "It doesn't grow as well, it doesn't produce much urine and can become severely anaemic. "While the opposite is happening to the other baby, who is getting too much blood flow and can go into heart failure so when it becomes significant without us doing anything, unfortunately it's got a very high chance of miscarriage." Symptoms of TTTS can include shortness of breath, a tight abdomen and increased thirst with Jesy revealing she had experienced all of them. Fortunately, the procedure worked and Jesy and Zion welcomed their daughters ten weeks later on May 15. The parents have now been working to raise awareness on the condition after they themselves had no clue about it before it happened to them Zion recently completed the London Marathon for the Twins Trust while a proud Jesy facetimed him from her hospital bed. Dr Ruwan has reassured expectant mothers with identical twins that TTTS only occurs in about one in six pregnancies. When Ben asked him if he had any advice for any parents in the same situation as Jesy and Zion, he said: "There are plenty of charities and websites that you can look at. There is help out there and there are things we can do to help, even in very complex and difficult situations to get an outcome like this one."
