Actress Jacqueline Jossa is reportedly set to appear on this year's series of I'm A Celebrity, after she recently left EastEnders.

The soap star, who was recently tipped to appear on Celebrity X Factor, has allegedly decided against the X Factor, favouring instead the Aussie jungle.

A source told the Daily Mail, "Jacqueline will not be appearing in on Celebrity X Factor. She did have initial meetings about the possibility but it was decided that things wouldn't be taken any further".

"As a result she had also sat down with ITV about the prospect of going on I'm A Celeb.

"As ever, line-ups aren't locked in until closer the time but it is looking more than likely she will be heading Down Under".

However, the news may not come to her fans as a complete shock, as she revealed last year that she would like to take part in the hit ITV reality show.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, she said, "I was asked about doing I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here last year but I couldn’t do it as I was contracted to EastEnders.

"I would definitely consider it in the future, but I don’t know if I could leave my family for that long".
