Geordie Shore star ‘lined up’ for I’m A Celebrity stint after MTV show ‘axe’

Geordie Shore star Nathan Henry could be entering the jungle as he's reportedly set for a stint on I'm A Celebrity Australia.

It's said the 32-year-old reality star is really keen to do the show and is likely part of the final line-up, meaning he could be heading to South Africa to film in just a matter of weeks.

"I'm A Celebrity is a huge opportunity for Nathan and he really wants to do the show," an insider told The Sun.

"It looks very likely he will part of the final line up and it's really a dream come true for him. It's also perfect timing now Geordie Shore is winding down."

Nathan would be following in the footsteps of fellow Geordie Shore alumni Charlotte Crosby and Vicky Pattison, who have both appeared on the hit show Down Under.

Geordie Shore has a huge fan base in Australia, and Nathan has built up a big following there since joining the MTV show in 2015.

Earlier this year, The Sun reported that Geordie Shore had been axed after 12 years due to plummeting ratings.

"Insiders said television bosses are pulling the infamous MTV show amid plummeting ratings," the report said.

"In recent years ratings have tumbled to barely over 100,000. At its peak, it was regularly pulling in more than one million viewers per episode."

Despite the backlash the show received for glorifying binge-drinking, it became a huge success and sparked spin-offs such as All Star Shore and reunion shows.

Charlotte, Vicky, and Gaz have all become millionaires thanks to countless lucrative brand deals and TV appearances off the back of their fame from the show.

Nathan has also appeared in numerous other reality shows, including Celebs Go Dating, Celebrity Ex On The Beach, and The Challenge UK.

Comedian Dylan Lewis won the ultimate crown at the end of the last season, and was joined on the show by model Maria Thattil, former MasterChef star Poh Ling Yeow, ex-MAFS star Davina Rankin and professional swimmer Emily Seebohm.

Channel 10 has dropped another clue about the cast of this year's season of I'm a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
