Sian Welby tipped for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! after Strictly snub

Sian Welby could be heading Down Under this November, with rumours suggesting the Capital Breakfast Show and This Morning presenter may be preparing to swap the studio for the I’m A Celebrity jungle.

Sian Welby is being tipped to take part in this year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, with the popular broadcaster potentially set for a major career boost as she heads into the Australian wilderness.

A source told wheretowatch.tv “Sian has been one to watch for a while and it’s finally her moment to shine. She’s absolutely loved in the industry and don’t be surprised to see her presenting shows like Cooking with the Stars and other entertainment series in 2027 following a spell down under”.

The Capital Breakfast Show co-host and This Morning presenter has become a familiar face to viewers across the UK, but a stint on ITV’s hit reality show could take her profile to an entirely new level.

The rumours come after Sian was overlooked for a presenting role on Strictly Come Dancing, raising the possibility that an appearance in the jungle could offer her another opportunity to make her mark on primetime television.

With I’m A Celebrity returning to ITV this November, Sian could be among the famous faces facing gruelling Bushtucker Trials, stomach-churning challenges and the inevitable campfire gossip.

And if she does sign up, she would be following in the footsteps of her Capital co-presenter Jordan North, whose appearance on the show proved to be a major career moment.

Jordan finished as runner-up on I’m A Celebrity in 2020, winning over viewers with his humour, down-to-earth personality and memorable reactions to the show’s toughest challenges.

His time in the jungle helped introduce him to a much wider audience, demonstrating how the ITV series can provide a significant platform for broadcasters looking to expand their television careers.

Sian could hope for a similar boost, with her quick wit, broadcasting experience and established following making her a potentially entertaining addition to the camp.

The presenter has built a strong career across radio and television, balancing her work on Capital Breakfast with appearances on ITV’s This Morning. An I’m A Celebrity appearance would give viewers the chance to see a different side to her personality, away from the familiar studio environment.

Of course, taking part in the jungle is no easy ride. Contestants must contend with uncomfortable sleeping arrangements, challenging food rations and trials designed to push even the bravest celebrities out of their comfort zones.

For Sian, however, the experience could prove an exciting new chapter — particularly if she can win over the public in the same way Jordan did before her.

ITV has yet to confirm the full line-up for this year’s series, and Sian’s reported involvement should be treated as speculation until an official announcement is made.

I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! is expected to return to ITV1 and ITVX in November, with viewers eagerly anticipating which celebrities will be heading into the jungle this year.

If Sian does join the line-up, she could find herself with a golden opportunity to turn a Strictly disappointment into a major television moment of her own.
