Ant & Dec are the nation's favourite TV presenters... Literally - they've won the NTA for Best Presenter nearly 20 years in a row! So the news that we'll be seeing them reunited for I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! is getting fans of the dynamic duo seriously excited.
But thankfully, we'll be seeing more of them on our screens before they go into the jungle, as they've been filming an ancestry show to discover where both of their families have come from.
The ITV special, entitled Ant & Dec's DNA Journey, has seen the Geordie boys explore their heritage - and one discovers that they actually have royal blood!
Although ITV haven't revealed any details about which one of them it is, also revealing that one has a DNA cousin who's a former US female wrestling promoter, and another has a great grandfather who was a war hero.
Of being on the show, Ant said, "I’m a bit of a geek when it comes to historical events, so to get the chance to research our family history using our DNA was too good an opportunity to pass up. What we find out is mind-blowing and nothing either of us could ever have imagined. It’s something that will stay with us both forever."
Dec added, "A huge part of this was to find out my heritage, especially on my dad’s side. I always thought I knew a fair bit about where I came from but it turns out I was wrong! Whilst it was incredible to find out about the past, what was hugely overwhelming was to meet relatives neither of us knew we had. It was a truly amazing experience."
Although ITV haven't yet revealed an air date for the show, they have confirmed that the show will be released 'soon'!
