What does the winner of I’m A Celebrity get?

The winner of I’m A Celebrity gets… nothing.

However, they do get the prestigious title of King/Queen of the Jungle, and they are typically scooped up to appear on various other TV shows – for which they will likely be paid a fair amount.

The celebs are given a set pay package to appear on the show, which they will get whether they are kicked out in the first round of eliminations or make it all the way to the final.

The pay varies drastically between celebs.

Mo Farah is taking home a massive £300,000 for his stint on the show, whereas AJ Pritchard is only being paid £50,000, according to The Sun.
