The winner of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here will be crowned next weekend. But what will they actually win?
I'm A Celebrity involves celebs like James McVey, Fleur East and Emily Atack living on basic rations, no luxury items (and dignity) and living in a jungle, so you'd think there would be a good prize at the end of it all.
Especially if you made it to the 2018 final and ended up being crowned King or Queen of the jungle. But it turns out that's not actually the case. Here's what the winner of I'm A Celeb actually wins plus their celebrity fee:
ITV actually agrees a fee with all of the celeb’s before they even enter the jungle and this price doesn’t change, even if they win.
Yes, they get the title of King or Queen of The Jungle! What more could you possibly want?

Last year’s winner Georgia ‘Toff’ Toffolo was the lowest paid star on the lin-up. She received £13,000 for taking part in the show and this amount didn’t change, even though she was crowned Queen of The Jungle.
According to reports at the time, the Made In Chelsea star was so keen to take part in the show that she didn’t negotiate a price and accepted the first fee they offered her.
A source said: “Georgia has been gold from the start this series but ITV bosses have got her for a bargain price.
”She jumped at the chance to go into the jungle and producers didn’t need to throw much money at her."
However, she’s thought to have bagged a load of money from all the opportunities she got off the back of appearing on the show.
Hollyoaks actor Malique Thompson-Dwyer and Inbetweeners star Emily Atack are apparently the lowest paid celebs this year.
Deal or No Deal host Noel Edmonds arrived late in the jungle. However, he is the highest paid contestant of the year. In fact, he’s the highest paid contestant ever and is getting a whopping £600,000!
