As the nation's I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! excitement reaches feverpitch, the show's presenters Ant and Dec have posted a backstage snap of the pair during filming for the first episode.

The image shows the pair smiling at the camera, presumably because they have now been reunited after Ant took time off work after checking into rehab, and enjoying life on a SPEEDBOAT.

They captioned the picture, "On our way to meet the class of 2019 🚤 #ImAceleb."

And fans couldn't cope with the upload, with one user writing, "Can’t wait for Sunday", while another commented, "Hey boys I can't wait I love you guys❤️❤️."

A third said, "It good to see u together back on #iamAceleb" and a fouth added, "Think u should do a show for non celebrities it would be great love u Ant and Dec couldn't image tv with out you xx."

But during an appearance at the Royal Concert hall in Nottingham last week, Harry Redknapp, last year's King of the Jungle, revealed Wright would be earning one million as someone tweeted: "Just got home from seeing @Redknapp in Nottingham. Interestingly, he let slip that Ian Wright has been paid £1m to appear on this year's #ImaCeleb."

She's used to putting up with Piers Morgan on Good Morning Britain, so the jungle should be a doddle for TV presenter Kate Garraway. Kate's co-presenter Ben Shepard teased Kate on Good Morning Britain: "I can't wait for you to go away for a month," and Kate responded: "I can neither confirm nor deny."
