Jungle Babe Vicky Pattinson Is Hot Favourite For IACGMOOHN Job!

It may have only been a few hours since Laura Whitmore announced she was quitting her role a co-host of ITV2 show I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here Now but that hasn’t stopped speculation about who will replace her.

Following the news that Katie Price fancies herself for the role comes further news that reigning Queen of the Jungle, Vicky Pattinson, is the bookie’s favourite for the gig.

Coral are offering odds of 8-1 on Vickster heading back down under and joining Joe Swash as presenter of the spin-off show.

A spokesperson for the bookies said: “Her [Laura’s] departure from the jungle is good news for Vicky Pattison who is in pole position to land the job.”

Vicky has already reacted to this news on Twitter. Of course she has. She said on the micro-blogging site: “Wow.. This would be a dream come true! But I’d have some big shoes to fill! Laura Whitmore has smashed it! #topgirl”

Vicky won the jungle crown in 2015, beating off competition from George Shelley and Ferne McCann. She’s also just been named as the face and bod for Ann Summers’ new swimwear collection.

As well as Pattinson and Pricey, another former contestant Myleene Klass, is reportedly in the running. What a time to be alive.
