Aussie armchair critics Angie Kent and Yvie Jones are heading to the South African jungle for the upcoming season of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

Kent and Jones are best known for their roles on Network 10’s Gogglebox Australia, but announced their departure from the Logie Award-winning show in December last year.

Commenting on her role as a contestant on I’m a Celeb, Kent said: “I am a massive fan of watching celebrities do absurd things in the jungle, but I never thought I would be one of those people doing it.

“I cannot wait to get up close and personal with Lady JMO and Dr Chris.”

Jones said: “I cannot believe we have spent four seasons watching, laughing and commentating on this show from inside our living room, and now we will be the ones being laughed at!”

Kent and Jones are the first two contestants to be revealed for the new season of the reality show, which kicks off on Sunday night.
