The mum-of-four is trading her life of luxury for ITV's toughest entertainment challenge Excitement is building as I'm A Celebrity returns to our screens tonight. The 24th season of TV's toughest entertainment challenge will get underway at 9pm with a special launch episode. Ant and Dec are back as hosts and will welcome a new batch of celebrities into the Australian camp.
Ten celebrities have been confirmed so far to be trading their lives of luxury for the ITV show. Coleen Rooney has been named as part of the line-up for the upcoming season of the show. The 38-year-old, who is married to former Everton striker Wayne Rooney, explained why now is the perfect time to take on the I'm A Celeb challenge as she revealed she has previously turned down the opportunity.
In a message shared with her Instagram followers this week, the mum-of-four said: "I've always said no and put it off because the kids have been young and I've had quite a lot on. But this year, I thought, I quite fancy doing it. She added: "I would like to experience something different, do something for myself, meet new people.
I'm looking forward to doing the trials." Coleen admitted she was worried about the prospect of leaving behind her children, who are named Kai, Klay, Kit and Cass. She added: "Don't get me wrong.
I'm really anxious about leaving the kids. That's been my biggest thing. I've come to terms with it.
I've planned and prepped. "I've got an army of family and friends all helping out with the kids so.
