Ferne McCann is set to join this year's series of 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!'
The 'Only Way is Essex' star has been asked to head Down Under after show producers rejected her co-stars Gemma Collins, who lasted just 72 hours in the jungle last year, and Chloe Sims following their failed psychiatric tests.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "'Towie' stars make great contestants and we were determined to get one of them this year. Our first choice was Gemma. Her appearance last year was a bit of a disaster, but it did make great telly and she definitely has unfinished business on the show.
"We got her in for psych tests, but there were issues. Then we approached Chloe, but again there were issues."
ITV producers are convinced Ferne, who is known for her bubbly personality and feisty outbursts, will stir up some trouble in the camp and create some great entertainment.
The insider explained: "Now we have finally got our woman. Ferne is incredibly outspoken and she can be a bit of a stirrer. So if she rubs some of her campmates up the wrong way, sparks will really fly."
Ferne is set to join former 'Geordie Shore' star Vicky Pattison, rapper 50 Cent, 'Weakest Link' host Anne Robinson and James Arthur in the jungle as they all come face-to-face with creepy crawlies, tuck into rice and beans and meet some of the world's most dangerous animals.
'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!', which is fronted by comedy duo Ant and Dec, will hit screens on November 15.

Natalie Dean had already "given up" when she was fired by Lord Alan Sugar on 'The Apprentice'.
The 25-year-old telecoms account manager - who became the fifth candidate to be sent home during last night's (04.11.15) episode - has confessed she knew as soon as she was called back into the boardroom by project manager Sam Curry that she would be given the sack.
She exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "I was already pretty convinced going into the boardroom that I was going to get fired so I think I was a bit dejected and had kind of given up to some extent and I felt horrendous. I think I was a bit like, 'Just fire me now'."
However, despite admitting she knew she was going to be sent home, Natalie has insisted she didn't deserve to be fired for her performance in the last task alone.
She said: "I think based on the fact I sold less than any one else on the second day on that task, yes [I should have been fired], but I don't think I should really overall, over the five weeks be fired for sales because in week one and week four I actually sold more than anyone else in my sub-team and so Lord Sugar had already seen I could sell so I don't think it was a valid reason to fire me."
'The Apprentice' continues next Wednesday (11.11.15) at 9pm on BBC One.

The BBC are today (05.11.15) launching their new BBC Store service.
The public-service broadcaster has unveiled a new digitial service that they say will make it easier for audiences to buy, enjoy and keep their favourite BBC programmes.
Marcus Arthur - who is managing director of BBC Worldwide & ANZ - explained: "We want BBC Store to do for digital ownership what BBC iPlayer did for catch up. BBC Store makes digital ownership really easy for audiences and means that we can begin opening up the incredible BBC television archive."
BBC Store allows users to choose from a selection of recently broadcast programmes, television favourites and lots gems from the BBC archive.
In addition to boxsets of classic sitcoms such as 'Only Fools and Horses' and 'Porridge' and past series of crime dramas including 'Sherlock' and 'Luther', fans will also be able to purchase the latest episodes of new series but will still be given the option to catch up for free within 30 days on BBC iPlayer.
The BBC's commercial director Bal Samra added: "BBC Store, operated by BBC Worldwide, is the result of fantastic collaboration with the creative industry to make more of the treasure trove of BBC programmes available than ever before and develop a new source of revenue to more of the UK creative industry."
As an introductory offer to celebrate the launch of BBC Store, anyone who registers will be eligible for a 25 per cent discount on their first purchase.

Hulk Hogan would sign up for 'Celebrity Big Brother' if the producers made him a big money offer.
The wrestling legend was heavily rumoured to be a potential contestant on the last series of the reality show which had a UK versus US theme but ultimately he didn't enter the house.
Hulk has now confirmed that 'CBB' bosses keep asking him to be a housemate and he admits for the right price he would consider coming across the pond to take part.
He said: "'Big Brother' have called for several years now. I don't know, first off you can never say never."
When asked if a big money offer could persuade him to sign on the dotted line, he added: "Hey, if you want me to be on 'Big Brother' tomorrow, I'll be in there tomorrow if you put $50 million in my bank account! You know what I'm saying, money is always a part of the decision making process."
If he did enter the 'CBB' house, Hulk would be worried about living with lots of young "wound up" stars who inevitably end up dominating the show.
But the 62-year-old star has already devised a plan to cope with the chaos if he ever accepts the invitation to appear.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz, he said: "If I was going to jump on that lightning bolt and come over there for 'Big Brother' I would just have to act like it was New Year's Eve, or something like that, every day. I'd have to have that mindset to get in that house with all those young people who are all wound up. I would have to be leaning forward and be right on my toes."
The grappling icon is coming to the UK this month for his 'An Evening With Hulk Hogan' show at Sheffield Arena on November 14.
Hulk will be participating in an open Q&A that night and in the day at the event he will be meeting his fans to pose for photos and sign autographs along with fellow wrestling legends Jimmy Hart, Bushwacker Luke, Tugboat and Lanny Poffo.
The former WWE star can't wait to meet his British Hulkamaniacs and has promised that the Q&A will be "totally uncensored".
He said: "To come over and get to talk to the fans and shake their hands is going to be awesome. They can ask me anything they want and that's exciting for me, the Q&A session will be totally uncensored. It's going to be a lot of fun because the energy of the audience comes into play and the tempo for how it goes will decide whether I'm going to stay for an hour longer or two hours longer. It's going to be crazy!"

Peter Capaldi felt "weepy" when Jenna Coleman filmed her final scenes for 'Doctor Who'.
The 57-year-old actor, who plays the titular Time Lord in the BBC One series, confessed he became uncharacteristically emotional and cried during his final moments on set with his friend.
He shared: "She's great fun and wonderful to work with. I've had a great time with her. I don't usually get weepy when I'm working but I found it really sad to say goodbye to her."
And while her final story-line is firmly under wraps, Peter revealed Jenna's last performance as Clara Oswald was captivating.
He said: "She's fabulous in the scene. I don't want to go into what. It's very clever what happens in it, but it's very sad. It's really sad."
The brunette beauty is now set to portray Queen Victoria in a new 8-part ITV drama and Peter's admitted he'll be missing his old sidekick.
Speaking on 'The Radio 1 Breakfast Show with Nick Grimshaw' on BBC Radio 1, he added: "I still see her, so it's not like saying goodbye to Jenna in person, but you say goodbye to the character, and it becomes the focus of your emotion and perhaps all of the things you'd like to say to that person, like how wonderful she's been to me."

Rogan O'Connor is "taking it slow" with Casey Batchelor.
The 'Ex on the Beach' star was recently rumoured to be romancing former 'Geordie Shore' star Vicky Pattison but it's now been revealed he's actually dating her close pal and former 'Celebrity Big Brother' beauty Casey.
Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz at The Dreamboys 2016 calendar launch at The Hippodrome in London last night, Rogan said: "I have kind of got my eye on somebody. She's going to be here tonight, I think. I don't know whether it's okay to say [who she is] yet but we'll just see how things go. We're taking it slow."
And although the 25-year-old hunk didn't name his new love interest, he was later seen cosying up to Casey, 31, during the show and was noticeably jealous when his Dreamboys pal Jordan Darrell invited her on-stage for a 'Fifty Shades of Grey'-inspired routine.
A source shared: "Rogan had his arm around Casey and was whispering in her ear when Jordan came over. He didn't stop her from going up on stage but was obviously a bit jealous seeing her lap up the attention from one of his friends."
Meanwhile, Rogan also explained that his relationship with Vicky, 27, is purely platonic.
He said: "Vicky is a really good friend of mine. I think she's like the friendliest person I've met, but we're just friends. I think of her like, I was going to say my sister, but she's actually more like my brother because she's got such good banter."

Paul O'Grady says it's "too early" for him to write a book about Cilla Black.
The 60-year-old comedian previously revealed that if he writes another memoir he will "intertwine" it with stories about his close friendship with the late 'Blind Date' host - who passed away in August after suffering a fall - but he's now confessed he thinks it's too soon.
Asked if it's true he's planning to write a book about Cilla, he said': "I haven't been asked, and people think I am and I'm not. I think they just assume that when she passed away that I'd sit down and write a book. But it's too early."
The chat show host also revealed he was recently outraged when somebody asked whether the 'Anybody Who Had A Heart' singer had left him anything in her will.
Paul told ITV's 'This Morning': "I was asked, 'So what has she left you in her will?' And I thought, 'How rude', I've got the memories thank you."
Meanwhile, the 'For the Love of Dogs' presenter previously admitted he would ask Cilla's sons Robert, Ben and Jack for their permission if he ever did plan to write a book about her.
He said: "Well, they know with me, she'd be safe. They'd rather me do it than anyone else. It would just be about two people having fun and what we got up to.
"I've got a great memory for conversations and situations. People say my memory's scary. There's loads of material. I would never be disrespectful to her."

'EastEnders' villain Paul Nicholas says his sex symbol status was a "hindrance".
The 70-year-old actor attracted a legion of female admirers when he starred in 80s sitcom 'Just Good Friends' and from his singing career, but thinks his handsome looks meant he missed out on more heavier roles as a younger actor.
Speaking to Daily Mirror newspaper, he shared: "It was a hindrance because people don't think you can do anything else. I had a pop career in the 90s with lightweight songs so I went out and sang in a lightweight way. People thought that was me, but it was me playing a character to tell the song.
"It's the same with light acting roles. I think you get more experienced as a performer and know yourself much better as a person. I'm able to move into more character roles rather than trying to be a sex symbol."
Paul - who first released music in the 70s - is currently playing back-from-the-dead character Kathy Sullivan's controlling husband Gavin Sullivan in the BBC One soap and he is delighted he is winning plaudits for his acting and not his looks.
He said: "Being older actually takes the pressure off me to some extent because I don't have to be attractive to play character roles."

Stacey Solomon is backing a group to win 'The X Factor'.
The 26-year-old star - who came third on the 2009 series of the talent contest - thinks the standard of talent on this year's show is very high, but she is particularly impressed by Cheryl Fernandez-Versini's category.
She said: "I like the bands this year, I think the groups are really kicking off.
"It's the first time really early on I've thought, 'Oh my god, the groups are really good'. But once you get to this stage, everyone is really good, they've sifted through all of the crowds."
And Stacey has advised the contestants to "enjoy" their experience on the show, regardless of how long they stay in the competition, because it is such a special time.
Speaking at the launch of the Disney Store's From Our Family to Yours Christmas campaign, she told BANG Showbiz: "I say the same thing every year - enjoy it. It's such an amazing experience and I loved every single second of it.
"I feel so lucky to have been on the show, sometimes people don't live it while they're in it and I think you just have to live it and enjoy it, because whatever the outcome, that experience will be a lifetime of memories."
Despite her own years of success, Stacey - who was joined at the event by her sons Zachary, seven, and Leighton, three - is unsure why her career has lasted so long or what this year's hopefuls can do in order to stay in the spotlight.
Asked the secret to longevity, she said: "I have no idea. I genuinely have no idea, I don't know what the formula is, just be a good person and work really hard."
Other stars who attended last night's (03.11.15) event - which benefitted both Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity and In Kind Direct - with their families included Michelle Heaton, Adele Silva, Chris Hollins, Tamara Ecclestone and Vanessa Feltz.
The 'From Our Family to Yours' initiative invites families to take a festive photo in the Disney Store or dig out a classic from the family photo album and share their treasured moments through Instagram or Twitter using the hashtag #DisneyStoreFamily. Each family that submits a photo will be entered into a competition to win a family trip to New York, including a private shopping spree at the Disney Store in Times Square.
For every family photo shared, a soft toy will be donated to a child through Disney Store's chosen national charities, up to a total of 15,000 across the UK, France and Ireland.
