But within days of announcing the news, there are a few names that have come out on top when it comes to early favourites to win the show, according to the latest odds with Ladbrokes.
Despite being installed as the early favourite, Coleen Rooney has been overtaken by McFly singer Danny Jones with odds at 4/1.
While Irish TV presenter Maura Higgins is ranked 4/1, and Coronation Street actor Alan Halsall follows close behind with 5/1.
Elsewhere, while Coleen is just behind at a 6/1 shot to be crowned Queen of the Jungle - with hopes that she's spill the beans on her Wagatha Christie controversy.
But former boxer and promoter is currently ranking at the bottom with 20/1 chance of bagging the crown.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "There's already been a huge change at the head of the I'm A Celebrity betting, and as far as punter interest goes up to this point, It's All About Danny from McFly..."
Pop star Danny is the second member of McFly to enter the jungle, after Dougie Poynter won the show in 2011.
Danny, 38, is also considered a rising star on ITV as he's now one of the mentors on their Saturday night talent show, The Voice, along with bandmate Tom.

A jungle insider said: "As well as bringing some of the star appeal of the group with him, he'll be supplying some serious guy candy for the campmates and viewers at home.
"All the McFly guys are gym fanatics and Danny in particular has a great physique - which he's bound to show off in the jungle."
Huge Brit pop star in final talks for I'm A Celebrity to replace Tommy Fury as jungle hunk
While Love Islander Maura Higgins was a late signing after Tommy Fury dropped out.
Maura, 33, will be leaving behind her boyfriend Pete Wicks after The Sun revealed they are an item.
An insider told us: "With Tommy Fury pulling out it gave show bosses the opportunity to look at other Love Island stars and Maura stood out as the perfect candidate.
"She'll bringing a bit of glamour to the jungle and make a brilliant campmate because she's got a great sense of humour and is bound to get on with everyone."
And Corrie's Alan, who plays Tyrone Dobbs on the ITV show, also has a huge fan base.
The actor was forced to pull out of entering I'm A Celeb last year after undergoing ACL Reconstruction surgery.
He's now put pen to paper and signed up again to take part in this year's series.
Alan is hugely popular with ITV viewers after 26 years on the Cobbles as the lovable mechanic, and a source said: "Tyrone is one of Corrie’s most-loved characters so Alan comes with a ready-made fan base.
"Sometimes soap actors who are known for their iconic roles don’t quite translate once in camp - Adam Woodyatt being one recent example.

"But Alan is a top lad with bags of personality so ITV are over the moon he's signed up again."
They will also be joined in the jungle by Strictly pro and Dancing on Ice judge Oti Mabuse, former X Factor panelist Tulisa and DJ Melvin Odoom.
