Winners of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! have been soap stars over the years.
Fans are counting down the days until a new season of I'm A Celebrity starts. The iconic show has been running for more than 20 years, and this will be the 23rd series. Stars have been preparing to take on the Bushtucker Trials and all the creepy crawlies in the jungle.

Last month, Ant McPartlin and Dec Donnelly teased the Jungle Retreat in a 10-second clip. Though ITV has yet to confirm the lineup, Hollyoaks actor Nick Pickard and EastEnders actress Danielle Harold are likely to be stars waving the soap flag this year.

Let's take a look back at all the soap stars who have won I'm A Celebrity. We'll start with Joe Swash, who was best known as Eastenders' Mickey when he entered the camp in 2008. His win caused an entire career rebrand and he went on to become part of the presenting team in 2009.

Charlie Brooks, best known for playing EastEnders' Janine Butcher, found herself in the final alongside Pussycat Dolls singer Ashley Roberts and boxer David Haye. In the end, she was crowned Queen of the Jungle.

In 2019, Jacqueline Jossa was crowned Queen of the Jungle. She was overwhelmed by the win and said: "I went in and was one person and I feel like I've come out as a different person. I feel like I've grown in confidence and found who I am as a person a little bit more."

Last year, Danny Miller was crowned the first ever King of the Castle when the series became a battle of the soap stars. He beat Coronation Street's Simon Gregson, and was hailed by fans as a force of nature during the challenges.

In 2020, Owen Warner, best known for playing Romeo Nightingale in Hollyoaks, came runner-up to Lioness Jill Scott. Jamie Lomas, also from Hollyoaks, finished in second place in 2017, coming behind Made In Chelsea star Georgia 'Toff' Toffolo.

Andy Whyment, who plays Steve McDonald in Coronation Street, was a late addition to the show in the 19th series. After facing a barrage of water, wind and inflatables during the Celebrity Cyclone challenge, he won over fans of the show.

I'm A Celebrity starts on Sunday November 19 at 9pm on ITV2. With so many soap stars having won the show, we can't wait to see who will be crowned King or Queen this year!
