I'm a Celebrity Odds 2026:
Jungle Favourites and Lineup

Check out the I’m a Celebrity odds and the I’m a Celeb favourite ahead 12 famous faces heading to the jungle in Australia.

The annual celebrity meeting with creepy crawlies, blended cockroaches, rice and beans is upon us, as 12 famous faces head down under on ITV for a November 16th start date.

We’ve put together all the I’m a Celeb odds for 2026 and who could be crowned the king or queen of the jungle.

Wayne Rooney

Undoubtedly the most famous name and perhaps the most famous man to ever enter the jungle is former England and Manchester United captain, Wayne Rooney.

The ex-footballer has kept up his appearances since retiring with punditry work on Sky Sports and BBC Sport, as well as his latest endeavour as a regular on Stick to Football. With this said, it’s quite surprising to see how ITV have actually pulled this off, although his wife, Coleen Rooney, did defeat the odds in 2024 to finish as runner-up with 44.4% of the public vote to win, which no doubt influenced Rooney’s decision. 

His appearance this year is no doubt going to be the show’s biggest selling point, as Rooney is unquestionably the most well-known British footballer of all time after Sir David Beckham.

Rooney is a clear favourite from I’m a Celeb odds.

Joanna Page

Moving from the football pitch to the TV screens, and we have Joanna Page, who touches down in Australia as the second favourite in the I’m a Celebrity odds.

Page is known for her time on Gavin & Stacey, playing the lead role in the BBC hit show as Stacey Shipman. The Swansea native was also in Love Actually, and has even played Cinderella in theatres.  

Given the cultural significance and fame of Gavin & Stacey, it’s no surprise to see Page as the second favourite to win I’m a Celeb.

Leigh Francis

The man from Yorkshire who you most likely know simply as Keith Lemon, Leigh Francis is right up there with the favourite to win I’m a Celeb. Francis has been very quiet since ‘retiring’ Keith Lemon a few years back and has not played the character since 2023. Instead, Francis has done some shows here and there, most notably The Great Celebrity Bake Off for Stand Up To Cancer in 2024.

This will be the first time we continuously see Francis as himself, having played characters like Keith Lemon and many from his Bo’Selecta days over the past 25 years.

It will no doubt be interesting to see what the former Celebrity Juice star is like in front of cameras, and Leigh Francis is the third favourite to win I’m a Celeb.
