I’m A Celebrity stars Angry Ginge and Aitch are set to be the real winners of the show – as a potential double-act.
Sources say that there has been “extensive” interest in the duo teaming up for a new TV or radio project. Insiders say that there have been a multitude of approaches for the pair of them, as well solo work for Ginge.
Angry Ginge took the crown on Sunday night, beating reality star Tom Read Wilson and EastEnders’ Shona McGarty, who finished third.
And he could be in line for even more success.
Radio giants Bauer and Global are said to be both interested in them not least with their ability to pull in new audiences. Insiders say it remains to be seen if they would be open to any of these approaches but it’s “very flattering” that interest is so high.
And a source said: “ Execs are desperate to pair them together…they are like the Ant and Dec of Gen Z.”

Ginge was already at the centre of a triple bidding war – before he’d even left the jungle.
The 24-year-old’s team have been “inundated” with money-spinning offers – including a book deal, TV work and advertising campaigns.
They are particularly interested in his “authenticity” having grown up in a council flat with his mum and sister.
The insider added that “broadcasters are already chomping at the bit to meet him” including ITV, BBC, C4 and the streamers.
The interest hasn’t stopped there, with a “simmering bidding war starting in publishing,” the insider added.
They added: “A string of major houses have been circling, all desperate to secure his first book deal.”

Aitch too is in demand after winning over legions of fans in the jungle…..and movie bosses too. The star – who said in camp that he wanted to “be an actor one day” – has already landed a role in film The Creep.
And now the rapper has a Hollywood agent from powerhouse WME who specialises in securing film work for music clients. He has Julie Colbert on board who is one of the most well-respected agents in LA.
It comes after Aitch said in the jungle that he wished one day to be a “James Bond villain.”
A source added: “He is a hugely talented guy…and the sky’s the limit for what’s next….the fact that he has such a big-hitting Hollywood agent shows that he means business. There is a lot of interest in him.”

Insiders say that as well as film, he also has new music coming out next year too.
Ginge’s rise to success however is all the more poignant after being brought up by his single mum Michelle, who juggled a series of low paid jobs.
She inadvertently found herself centre stage when Ginge told millions of viewers of the sacrifices she made for him, and his older sister Tasha, while growing up.
He explained that she’d finish her first job, and “then go to her second job then go to her third job and then get home.”
Michelle said: “I’ve done everything. I’ve worked in school kitchens. I’ve done cleaning. I’ve done residential care homes for the elderly.
“It was a very hard time.”
