Going down under
Grace revealed that she will be facing her fear of insects in order to take part in the 2024 series of I'm a Celebrity.
She will be joined by some of the biggest names on TV including Colleen Rooney, Tulisa and Danny Jones.
It's set to be an action-packed and hilarious series but there might be one major change on the horizon.
Olly Nash, an executive producer on the show, shared that fans might be seeing less of the semi-naked shower scenes that have long been a staple of the show.
"It's funny, they (celebs) have all asked about that this year, but most people just cover themselves up.
"And it's absolutely changed. I think the whole world has changed, hasn't it a lot over the years?
"People are less likely to get in there and want to flaunt themselves.
"They ask can you shower nude, do people shower nude?
"And you go, 'you're absolutely welcome'."
The show is known for its Bushtucker trials, which sees celebrities dosed with bugs and forced to eat various parts of different animals.
