Maura Higgins is expected to make around £1.5 million from brand deals off the back of her 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' stint.
The 34-year-old star - who celebrated her birthday in the jungle this week - is among the favourites to be named Queen of the Jungle after being a late entrant to camp last week, and companies are said to be "queuing up to work with her".
A source close to Maura told The Sun newspaper: "Beauty brands, fashion labels and TV execs in the UK and US are already queuing up to work with her.
"She’s had some incredible offers."
Maura is said to be "excited" about new opportunities following her jungle jaunt.
The source added: "This next chapter is going to be huge for her.
"She’s excited about the opportunities coming her way."
Maura shot to fame on the UK version of 'Love Island' in 2019, and she now hosts 'Love Island USA Aftersun' across the pond.
On Monday night's (25.11.24) 'I'm A Celebrity', Maura celebrated her 34th birthday.
After waking up in the jungle on her big day, she said: "Birthday in the jungle!
"This is definitely going to be one I will never, ever forget."
Her campmates speculated throughout the day that they might get a treat to see in her birthday - but they were mistaken.
Instead, they had to board The Fright Bus during the evening, on which the celebrities were covered in creepy crawlies.
As each celebrity took their seats, birthday girl Maura got a shock when she realised she was at the back of the bus and would therefore have to endure the longest trip.
The outcome of The Fright Bus will be revealed on Tuesday night's (26.11.24) episode, which will air tonight at 9pm on ITV1, STV and ITVX, and in Ireland on Virgin Media One and Virgin Media Play.
