Wildlife warrior Robert Irwin is packing his bags for South Africa and on March 24 will join Julia Morris as co-host for the 10th season of I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here!.
Irwin – a passionate conservationist, zookeeper, photographer, and presenter – will swap Australia Zoo for the wilds of Africa to run the latest crop of celebrities through their paces.
When he was announced as co-host, Robert Irwin said: “It’s a huge honour to be the new co-host of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!. I can’t wait to plunge back into the incredible African jungle and introduce our celebrities to the magnificent wildlife that call the jungle home.
“Most of all, I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work alongside the incredibly kind and talented Julia Morris. Crikey! This is going to be a wild ride!”
Julia Morris said: “I am absolutely overjoyed by the appointment of my spectacular new co-host, Robert Irwin. Audiences will be peaking at how much fun we have in store. You might think Robert and I are an unlikely duo, but it turns out we’re a magical combination! Season 10, here we come!”
The 2023 grand finale of I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here! saw Liz Ellis crowned Queen of the Jungle, with Harry Garside coming in second, and Aesha Scott third. 562,000 watched the end, peaking at 592,000 for the winner’s announcement.
In February last year, it was announced that previous I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out Of Here! co-host, Dr Chris Brown would be leaving Network 10 to join rival network Seven.
Brown started his TV career with Seven on Harry’s Practice two decades ago.
Over the years, Brown had worked on Network 10 shows including Bondi Vet (2008), The Project (2010), The Living Room (2012-2022), and I’m a Celeb — which he had been working on since 2015.
In 2019 he hosted Chris & Julia’s Sunday Night Takeaway and had served as the voice for The Dog House Australia since 2021.
