David Van Day is wanted by ITV bosses for a jungle comeback
The 65-year-old singer-turned-politician reached the semi-final of the jungle-based reality show back in 2008 alongside 'Star Trek' actor George Takei, tennis champ Martina Navratilova as well a eventual winner Joe Swash and now ITV bosses are reportedly keen to sign him up for the all-stars spin-off after he lost his Tory seat at the local elections in Aveley and Essex last week.
A source told The Daily Star newspaper: "You could say David is set to swap his Tory seat for a jungle throne! Many fans have complained that recent editions of the show have lacked the spats and conflict of yesterday have been too nice."
During his time on the show, former Dollar star David was famously at loggerheads with fellow camper and former model model Nicola McLean as they argued constantly in front of the cameras and the source went on to explain that David could shake things up in the camp.
The source added: David could certainly turn the camp on its head again!"
'I'm A Celebrity: All Stars' is set to air on ITV later this year from South Africa and memorable contestants such as 'Loose Women' star Stacey Solomon - who was crowned Queen of the Jungle back in 2010 - and 'Keeping up with the Kardashians' alum Caitlyn Jenner, who reached sixth place back in 2019, are also reportedly wanted for a comeback.
A source said: "It’s still really early days but 'I’m A Celebrity' bosses are keen to bring back the most talked-about stars. Stacey and Caitlyn were both great value in their years and reckon they’ll be even better viewing a second time!"
