The reality TV star - who won the ITV show last year - has been chosen to replace Laura Whitmore on the spin-off programme, which is the reason why she recently decided to walk away from her role on the 'Loose Women' panel.

A source told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Vicky made no secret of the fact that she would love to replace Laura. But while she was always the front- runner, ITV took their time with the decision.

"It's only very recently that they have said they want her. Now all that remains is the formality of signing the contract.

"Vicky is beyond excited and can't wait to get started."

Vicky's role on the show will be to get all of the behind-the-scenes gossip during the new series.

Meanwhile, Vicky's former junglemate and good friend Ferne McCann recently said she wants to present 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! Now!' with the 28-year-old star.

She shared: "Obviously, the jungle is where we met. 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! Now!' would be the dream job. I think me and Vick have great banter. She's very quick and whitty and I'm not but I bring the lols and the bants."
