Wayne Rooney Headlines Series 26 Cast in Australia
ITV confirmed the cast lineup earlier this week for the upcoming run based in Murwillumbah, Australia. The production returns to its traditional jungle format following an All-Stars season set in South Africa, which featured all-timer beef involving Adam Thomas, Jimmy Bullard, and David Haye.
Alongside the football star, the twenty-sixth season features actor Joanna Page, YouTuber Sharkie, and Paralympian presenter Ade Adepitan, who makes history as the first contestant to compete in a wheelchair. The roster also includes Love Island participant Chloe Burrows, Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson, model Leomi Anderson, and comedian Leigh Francis.
