The 72-year-old comic - who previously spent 10 days on a remote island for Channel 5's Ruby Wax: Cast Away in 2023 - is in talks to leave her home comforts behind once again to take part in the tough reality show in Australia, which returns to screens next month.
A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: “Ruby’s a proper TV legend and adds real gravitas to this year’s line-up.
“She’s interviewed some of the biggest stars in the world so will have no problem getting to know her fellow campmates.
“It will make great TV for viewers.”
Ruby would be joined on the show by the likes of Kelly Brook after it recently emerged the Heart FM broadcaster is finally ready to take part following years of refusals.
A source said: “Show bosses have been after Kelly as a campmate for years and think she could possibly be their sexiest contestant ever.
“She’s glamorous, witty and a familiar face to ITV audiences, having appeared as a panellist for Loose Women and other shows.
"She’s guaranteed to make perfect TV viewing.
“Many viewers will be excited to see her strip off for the famous jungle waterfall shower too.”
And 25-year-old rapper Aitch is also in line to take part in the show.
A source said: “Aitch has a massive following among teenagers and 20-somethings and bosses will be hoping he’ll bring a new generation of fans.
"He’ll make for great viewing as he has a plethora of stories from his time in the music industry.
“He’s also known for having a sharp wit which will keep his campmates and viewers entertained.
“Producers want a broad appeal for audiences at home, and he forms part of the bid to have celebrities of all ages taking part.”
Emmerdale’s Lisa Riley, 49, EastEnders’ Shona McGarty, 33 and LBC broadcaster Nick Ferrari, 66, have all been tipped to join the show.
An ITV spokesperson has refused to be drawn on any of the names being linked with the programme.
