Emmerdale legend Adam Thomas is rumoured to be joining the I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here All Stars line-up.

There have been quite a lot of Emmerdale stars who have swapped the Dales for the jungle over the years. And it looks like one iconic member may be heading back in for a second round.

ITV are keeping hush about the official line-up for the next series of I’m A Celeb: All Stars. But reports suggest that Adam Thomas may be stepping back into the jungle almost 10 years later.

In 2016, former Emmerdale star Adam Thomas came third to Scarlett Moffatt and Joel Dommett. But throughout his whole stint, he was definitely a fan-favourite.

During his run, he became known as Mr Bushtucker Trial for taking on the most ever trials – a total of 12. And it’s a record that he still holds all these years later.

In 2019, he returned to the jungle to present spin-off show Extra Camp with Joel and Emily Atack – before it was cancelled.

Adam isn’t the only member of Emmerdale to take part in I’m A Celebrity. But in particular, Adam’s close pal, Danny Miller actually won the show in the 2021 season which took place in Wales.

Emmerdale star Adam Thomas rumoured to return

Now, nine years after taking home the bronze medal, Adam is believed to be in talks to return.

A source told The Sun: “This will be a glorious return for Adam as he established himself as a true fan favourite through his series in camp and then on the spin-off show.

“He stayed in the limelight too. With Waterloo Road and then on ITV alongside brother Ryan with challenge show 99 to Beat. It’s the perfect time for him to head back into the jungle and affirm his position as Mr Bushtucker Trial.”

The second season of the All Stars is still in the early stages. But it’s due to be filmed later this Autumn in South Africa, and is set to air next year.

So, while Adam may be heading to the jungle again, it looks set to be a completely different experience.
