Declan Donnelly beams as he enjoys family day out in Australia ahead of I'm A Celeb launch

1 month ago 3

ITV host Declan Donnelly beamed as he enjoyed some quality time with his wife Ali Astall and little daughter Isla in Australia. The trio, who are Down Under for I'm A Celeb, were all smiles during a leisurely day out in Brisbane.

Stylish in a giraffe motif tee, young Isla held tight to her famous dad's hand, who looked casual chic in a simple white T-shirt and khaki shorts. Later the family were seen post-breakfast, happily heading back to their hotel.

Dec, one half of the much-loved presenting duo Ant and Dec, keeps family close, especially with the demanding schedule that the hit ITV show requires. At 49-years-old, Dec now juggles presenting duties with parenting two children - his daughter Isla arrived in September 2018, and son Jack Anthony Alphonsus made the scene in July 2022.

It was a bright and breezy morning for the Donnellys, making the most of the time before the intensity of the reality show picks up pace, reports the Mirror.

For the beloved television pair, I'm A Celeb is very much a family gig, as they share the Aussie adventure annually with their loved ones. This year is slated to be extra special for Ant, who anticipates introducing his baby son Wilder to the mix.

While discussing parenting, Dec, with his trademark humour, shared his top tip: "I do share tips and things. They're very bad. My tips are normally: give the baby to somebody else! That's it."

The gang's gearing up for another round of jungle shenanigans on I'm A Celeb, set to start next weekend, and tongues are wagging over the star-studded line-up that's yet to be confirmed. The Sun has let slip that Coleen Rooney might be camping out this year, potentially bagging the top pay packet post her Wagatha Christie win against Rebekah Vardy.

Rumours are swirling that former Strictly dancer Oti Mabuse, boxer Barry McGuigan, and N-Dubz's very own Tulisa Contostavlos could be facing the bugs and challenges. Corrie's Alan Halsall, Loose Women panelist Jane Moore, McFly crooner Danny Jones, and the Rev Richard Coles, once spinning decks at the Beeb, are also whispered to be on the reveal roster soon.

They might be joined by Love Island's Maura Higgins, radio jocks Melvin Odoom and Dean McCullough, plus the internet's GK Barry. ITV's holding their cards close, with their rep saying: "Any names suggested for I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! are just speculation."

Meanwhile, Dec's soaking up the Aussie rays with his family, while Ant's Oz debut is eagerly awaited – he'll likely show up with his wife Anne-Marie, their bundle of joy Wilder, and Anne-Marie's kids from a previous marriage.
