Emily Atack ‘earns £500k since I’m A Celebrity’

Emily Atack is said to have earned £500,000 since appearing on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’

The 30-year-old actress – who was runner-up on the 2018 series, with Harry Redknapp crowned King of the Jungle – is said to have made a six-figure profit through her performing arts firm Twin Soul.

According to The Sun Online, Emily – who rose to fame on ‘The Inbetweeners’ – has taken on a number of new opportunities after appearing on the ITV reality show almost two years ago.

The profit has been revealed in the first trading accounts for her company, which she established in January 2019.

This amounted to more than £101,000 after assets – including cash at around £96,900 – offset against bills due at £8,258.

And it’s thought the star could have made even more cash.

An insider said: "Emily has had lots of success since leaving the jungle and her career continues to go from strength to strength.

"Last year was phenomenal and this year is shaping up to be even better with her own sketch show on ITV2 coming up and then on to her live comedy tour next year."

Emily also earns media fees for appearance and performance dates, while her deals with In The Style and Walkers crisps have contributed to her big payday, with the latter bringing in around £200,000.

Her In The Style clothing range is thought to have earned her £500,000, with £40,000 coming from her ‘I’m A Celebrity’ run.

Emily previously hit out at her critics and insisted there is more to her "than a pouty face and a pair of boobs".

She said: "People think that if you look a certain way you can’t write, or you don’t have an opinion.

"I thought I needed to almost reinvent myself and show that there is more to me than a pouty face and a pair of boobs.

"The irony of it was that, my whole life, I’d been striving to be sexy when in fact being what I really am – a wobbly-a****, freckly-faced, fun girl – is what makes me feel happiest."
