Tommy Fury has reportedly ‘pulled out’ of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! 2024 – just two weeks before he was expected to fly out to the Australian jungle.
The boxer, 25, had been ‘in talks with ITV producers for months’ to join the show, following his split from Molly-Mae Hague, 25.
However, it has been revealed that Tommy has been offered another more lucrative project, which is believed to be a rematch between him and KSI.
A TV insider told The Sun: ‘Bosses are surprised Tommy has chosen to pull out of I’m A Celebrity at this late stage as it would have been a great opportunity for him too.
‘Thankfully, the execs already had some great names waiting in the wings so they’ll now be looking at which ones fit best into the line up already booked so they can deliver a truly great series.

‘With only weeks to go, bosses have lined up one of the most exciting casts in the show’s history.’
MailOnline has contacted ITV and Tommy’s representatives for comment.
Molly-Mae shocked fans when she ended her engagement to the boxer last month after a five-year relationship.
Tommy has since been accused of cheating on Molly-Mae after alleging sharing a passionate kiss with Danish Milla Corfixen, 20, during a lads’ holiday in North Macedonia.
But now The Sun reports that Tommy could be set to enter the Jungle and tell his side of the story when the new series kicks off in autumn.
A show insider said: ‘Tommy is a great name as a potential campmate as he’s already known to the ITV audience and he’d be brilliant in the Bushtucker Trials.
‘Bosses are talking with lots of celebrities and are determined to make this year’s line-up one of the best.
‘They also know that the super-fit boxer is likely to be a prime candidate for the annual hunk-in-the-jungle shower scenes.’

Tommy has denied that he was unfaithful to Molly and the source adds that going on the show could be his chance to give his side of the story
During a new vlog on Thursday Tommy teased fans that he had something ‘very, very exciting lined up at the end of the year’.
He refused to disclose any more on his secret project.
Tommy has denied that he was unfaithful to Molly and the source adds that going on the show could be his chance to give his side of the story.
Now, KSI and Tommy Fury are set for a rematch after the former’s manager admitted their camps are in talks.
The YouTuber has vengeance on his mind after Fury was awarded a controversial unainmous decision victory in October 2023 despite being docked a point for illegal shots to the back of KSI’s head.
KSI was fuming in the aftermath of that bout and labelled the verdict a ‘robbery’. The scorecards read 57-56, 57-56, 57-56 in Fury’s favour.
Former Love Islander Fury has since had hand surgery and in August he split from Molly-Mae Hague . They had a daughter in January 2023 named Bambi.
He is the only boxer to beat KSI – who has only had five fights, admittedly – and his opponent’s manager Mams Taylor told The Sun that a replay could be on the cards.

‘I think Tommy would do really well on the Misfits roster. And I know our teams are in touch with their team,’ Taylor, also the co-president of Misfits Boxing, told the outlet.
‘So watch this space. Let’s see what happens.
‘As far as KSI and Tommy, I think when the time is right, that rematch definitely should happen.
‘Till this day people are still very divided about that result.’
Fury remains unbeaten, having won 10 fights, four by knockout. Neither he nor KSI have fought since they met.
