Sam, 31, has been one of the suspected campmates for this year's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!

A source told The Sun: "Sam is a great signing because he has a huge fan base and a funny self-deprecating personality."

"While it might put a bit of pressure on their relationship, it’s a huge year for them.”

The Sun on Sunday previously revealed jockey Frankie DettoriThis Morning host Josie Gibson, ex-EastEnders star Danielle Harold and rapper Flavor Flav are also in the I’m A Celeb line-up.

It's been a huge year for the couple after Zara took part in Strictly Come Dancing this year.

Pete, 35, interviewed Zara on the podcast this week to talk about her time on Strictly after she was voted out on Halloween week.

In typical Pete style, he didn't hold back as he quizzed Zara on her time in the ballroom.

"So how you feeling? Don't cry for f*** sake, you cried on just the two of us a million times, or what's it called? Just the two of us?

"It Takes Two," Zara corrected.

"That's the one," he quipped.

"Aw you've been watching it!" she grinned.

Pete shrugged it off and said that he "sees the clips" before Zara broke into song, singing "just the two of us".

"But yeah, I can't deal with any more tears about it, just get over it. So what happened?" Pete asked.

Zara told him about how much she loved the set on their 'Skeletons at the Spa' routine, which saw her perform in front of a 'swimming pool' on the dance floor.

"I know how long you've wanted to do the show and I think you smashed it in all seriousness because you are s*** at dancing," Pete said.

"I am," she agreed.

";So actually, in terms of journey and improvement, I think you were fabulous," he said.

Sam hasn't given a reason for his absence, but he has shared a clip from their podcast.

"Zara standing in for me on the pod talking all things strictly," he wrote on his story.

Sam was mentioned in their discussion, when Zara corrected the headlines that claimed she "banned" him from the live audience.

She explained that for Strictly the celebrities are only allowed two tickets each per show.

"Sam and Pete were my priority for week one. So obviously I have my family and my friends on a bit of a rota to come in.

"So I said to Sam: 'when you've been, then I'm going to have my mum come, dad come, nan and grandad come, my auntie, and then you can come again."

She then said that Sam went onto a radio show and told the host that Zara had banned him from coming to the show.

"I was like what?! I've never banned you!" she exclaimed.

"He loves to play victim doesn't he," Pete agreed.

I'm a Celebrity is kicking off on November 19 on ITV
