Jack Osbourne rumoured for I'm A Celebrity... - months after dad Ozzy Osbourne's death
It has been reported that Jack Osbourne, the youngest son of the late Ozzy Osbourne, is taking part in this year's series of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!.
Jack Osbourne has reportedly signed up for I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! - four months after his dad Ozzy Osbourne died.
The youngest child of Sharon Osbourne, 73, and the late Black Sabbath frontman - who died in July aged 76 - is said to have got support from his mum and sister Kelly Osbourne, 41, to do the ITV Australia-based jungle survival show, which starts on November 16.
A TV insider told The Sun newspaper: "He is believed to be going into the jungle with the full support of his mother and his sister Kelly.
"Jack is very likely to discuss Ozzy, which will be an incredibly moving moment for the campmates and for viewers and Ozzy’s fans.
"I’m A Celeb bosses are thrilled to have bagged Jack. He’s been a star in his own right since shooting to fame on The Osbournes 23 years ago.”
Jack - who first dabbled in reality TV in the early 2000s with his family's MTV fly-on-the-wall series, which followed him, Kelly and their parents in their Los Angeles home - would join a host of famous faces if he took part in I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!.
This includes Spandau Ballet band member Martin Kemp, 64, who is reportedly in advanced talks to do the programme.
Speaking about the star - whose 32-year-old son Roman Kemp did I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! in 2019 - a source told The Mirror: "Martin is a household name, having been top of the hit parade with Spandau Ballet in the 80s and then in EastEnders in the early 2000s – he’s a great signing and everyone is very excited at the prospect of getting him Down Under."
Elsewhere, 29-year-old boxer Conor Benn - whose 61-year-old dad, former world champion fighter Nigel Benn, did the show's first series in 2002 - could be going Down Under.
Even though Conor is set to rematch arch rival Chris Eubank Jr, 36, on November 19 before the series kicks off, a source said Conor wants to take on both challenges.
A TV insider told The Sun: "The logistics are a challenge given how close the match is to the start of the jungle, but ITV and Conor are keen to make this happen if they can.”
An option could be for Conor - who lost out on points to Eubank Jr in April - to enter the jungle as a late campmate.
The source added: "Conor’s profile has soared due to the intense rivalry between him and Chris Eubank Jr.
“Obviously, Conor’s main priority is the fight. But with his great physique, he is also likely to provide the show with this year’s male pin-up.
"I’m A Celeb bosses think he’ll make a great addition to the camp.
"One option is that he goes in as a late entry."
Rapper Aitch, 25, Emmerdale’s Lisa Riley, 49, EastEnders’ Shona McGarty, 33 and LBC broadcaster Nick Ferrari, 66, have all been tipped to join this year's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!.
An ITV spokesperson has refused to be drawn on any of the names being linked with the programme.
