Coleen to be queen of daytime TV after jungle

WAG Coleen Rooney is poised to sign a £1million TV deal after leaving the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

McFly pop star Danny Jones is also being courted by ITV bosses for big new shows, insiders have revealed.

But before the show, insiders said if Coleen lost out on being crowned Jungle Queen, she was still on course to become one of the show’s most successful celebs.

A source said: “She is poised to sign a huge new TV deal, worth around £1million.”

It came as her mum, Colette, revealed her daughter asked her, “Have I been boring?” as they hugged during a camp visit this week with the Wag’s sons, Kit, eight, and Cass, six.

More I'm A Celebrity action to come...

The celebrities are no doubt eager to get into a hot shower and devour some of their favourite food.

They'll also live in the lap of luxury before flying home.

Fans can see all the action this Friday, during the Coming Out show from 9pm on ITV1.

Danny's new gig after the jungle...

Danny Jones is in talks for massive new TV roles following his success in the jungle.

ITV bosses are keen to secure Danny, 38, long-term as one of its main players, alongside family favourites including Joel Dommett and Bradley Walsh.

The singer and guitarist had an emotional reunion with his wife Georgia and their six-year-old son Cooper as he crossed the famous jungle bridge last night.

He is already a judge on The Voice UK, alongside his bandmate Tom Fletcher, but insiders said telly bosses are keen to sign him up for more shows.

A source said: “Danny is the embodiment of everything ITV loves. He’s fun, family friendly and incredibly popular.

“Watching how popular he was on I’m A Celeb made him a key target for other shows they have coming up. Danny is a brilliant musician, but he is also great on TV."

Social media reacts to Danny's win

One I'm A Celeb fan said: "Well done Danny & good on you Coleen!! Northern folk really are the best & nicest folk."

A second wrote: "King of the north, king of the jungle! Amazing."
