Vicky Pattison to make ‘at least a million’ after I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! stint


Vicky Pattison is set to rake in "at least a million" pound after she was crowned Queen of the Jungle on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ last night (06.12.15).

The former ‘Geordie Shore’ star may have only just left the Australian outback but is already being lined up for a gig on two high-profile TV shows after she impressed bosses with her positive mindset, bubbly personality and infectious smile.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "She’s been approached for several presenting jobs including two with ITV, plus beauty endorsements and another reality series. The deals she’s been offered since being in the ‘I’m A Celebrity’ camp are set to take her 2016 earnings well into seven figures."

The 28-year-old reality TV star, who was known for her raunchy on-screen romps and booze-fuelled banter, has won over the hearts of the nation over the last 19 days after fans saw her shed her trashy TV stereotype and radiate her natural down-to-earth charm and go-getter attitude.

The brunette beauty was overcome with emotion last night when she beat Union J’s George Shelley to the crown.

She said: "It’s been a dream come true. I wasn’t sure what to expect. I thought I would hate it.

"And I can honestly say, I have struggled on occasion but it’s been very rare. I have loved it and just embraced it all."

‘The Only Way is Essex’s Ferne McCann also managed to shake off the bad name she’d made for herself on the reality TV show and give fans a glimpse into her loving side.

The blonde beauty – who gobbled down a live water spider, sat in a pit full of jungle pythons and walked across a elevated obstacle course blindfolded – came third.
