Overview
- Multiple outlets report a leaked pay scale that places rapper Aitch as the highest earner on the 2025 series at £250,000.
- The reported range runs from £75,000 to £250,000, with Jack Osbourne said to be on £200,000 and Alex Scott and AngryGinge around £100,000.
- Ruby Wax, Lisa Riley, Martin Kemp and Shona McGarty are each reported near £95,000, Kelly Brook at £80,000 and Eddie Kadi at £75,000.
- Earlier speculation that Kelly Brook would top the list at about £300,000 has been overtaken by the new leak naming Aitch as the top-paid contestant.
- The Independent says it has asked ITV for comment, separate ‘rich list’ coverage pegs Jack Osbourne at roughly £11m and Angry Ginge near £1.1m, and some contestants were seen attempting a first trial as the show readies to launch this weekend.
