I’m A Celebrity bosses sign first ever Love Island contestant for this year’s series
LOVE Islander Olivia Attwood is set to take part in the new series of I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!
The move ends a seven year ban on competitors on the ITV2 show being allowed to join the celebrity line up in the Australian jungle this autumn.
Olivia, 31, was one of the biggest stars to emerge from Love Island, after pairing up with Chris Hughes, 29, in 2017, and went on to feature in ITVBe’s Towie.
A TV insider said: “This is a sign that the dating favourite is now so big and produces figures with such high profiles that they can no longer be dismissed.
“Olivia is already viewed as a rising star on ITV and this is likely to serve as a launchpad for potentially fronting more mainstream shows with the broadcaster.”
Olivia, who is engaged to 28-year-old Blackburn Rovers footballer Bradley Dack, has just made a documentary on people who make money from sexual image online called Getting Filthy Rich.
