Overview
- Tabloid outlets reported on Friday and Saturday that Nelson is in advanced talks with ITV and is negotiating a reported six-figure fee to join the new series of I'm A Celebrity.
- The claims are based on unnamed insiders and remain unconfirmed because neither Jesy Nelson nor ITV has publicly commented on the reports.
- Sources quoted say Nelson wants to use the show to raise awareness of spinal muscular atrophy for her twin daughters, who she announced were diagnosed in January 2026.
- Show producers are said to hope she will discuss her 2020 departure from Little Mix on the programme, a topic that has continued to attract public attention.
- Representatives for Nelson and ITV have been contacted for comment and a decision is expected in the coming weeks, with reports noting the contestant would face several weeks away from her young children if she signs.
