It's that time of year again - a host of famous faces have touched down in Australia as they prepare to enter the jungle for the newest series of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here.
The lineup for the 2024 edition of the show, which kicks off at 9pm on Sunday, November 17, was officially announced yesterday by ITV. Stars including Coleen Rooney, McFly's Danny Jones and former N-Dubz singer Tulisa will all be ditching their glamourous lives to sleep on the ground, eat insects and battle it out to be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle.
And this year, fans are particularly excited to watch TikTok star and podcaster GK Barry, who shot to fame in 2020 thanks to her hilarious viral videos.
The youngest contestant this year at 25 years old, the influencer - whose real name is Grace Keeling - currently lives in one of the UK's most 'underrated' cities - but grew up somewhere very different.

GK Barry was born in Cambridge, a gorgeous city known for its university, cobbled streets and quaint atmosphere.
However, it's so much more than this, as it also boasts an enviable arts and culture scene from music to theatre to comedy - which is why it's maybe no surprise that Grace has a natural knack for laughs.

There's also plenty of museums, bars and restaurants, vintage shops and music venues that make Cambridge the perfect place to spend a couple of days.
Grace then reportedly moved to the sun-soaked British Virgin Islands - where her step-dad is from - between the ages of two and eight.

Here, temperatures rarely dip below the twenties, which is certainly worlds away from the chilly UK climes that Grace had to face when returning to the UK a few years later.
And when the time came for her to think about university, she decided to head to Nottingham Trent to study film and subsequently completed a Masters in digital marketing.
This 'underrated' city clearly struck a chord with Grace as she shared snippets of her home life through her hilarious TikTok videos that have earned her a following of more than 3.6 million people.
Although often forgotten about by tourists, this Midlands city also boasts plenty of things to see and do - from a walk along the Embankment to a stroll around Nottingham Contemporary to see some impressive art.
Grace tends to keep her private life under wraps, so it's unclear if she still resides in Nottingham or has moved on elsewhere. But she delighted fans earlier this year after revealing her relationship with another famous face.
She is currently dating footballer Ella Rutherford, who plays as a striker for Ipswich Town, and the pair met through social media after following each other on Instagram.
