Current reigning Queen of the Jungle Vicky Pattison has admitted that she would love to co-host the I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! NOW!

Following Laura Whitmore’s announcement in April that she has left the spin-off show, rumours started to fly about the former Geordie Shore star taking over the role, with fellow campmate and now good friend Ferne McCann.

However the secret project the pair has been working on was in fact a road trip for This Morning, which will see the reality stars journey across the Amalfi Coast, from Sorrento to Naples.

Vicky said of the exciting trip: "We have been out socially since the jungle but to join forces again for work is more than we could ask for. I love her to bits and it’s going to be such a laugh!"

And that’s not the only new TV project the Loose Women panellist has been working on, as she’s started filming a brand new show It’s Not Me, It’s You.

Speaking to Digital Spy, Vicky said: “Getting this panel show and working with these two legends [Eamonn Holmes and Kelly Brook] is a TV job I'd never have expected this year.”

But her new role as team captain on the Channel 5 panel show isn’t the only thing she’s got her eye on.

When asked about presenting the I’m A Celebrity spin-off on ITV2, the 28 year old revealed: "It would be a dream come true.

"I haven't heard anything. We'll see, I hope so. I'm not ready to say goodbye to the jungle just yet."

It wouldn’t be the first time ITV bosses have given a presenting role for I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! NOW! to a reigning winner of the reality show.

Joe Swash was crowned King of the Jungle back in 2008, and has been co-hosting the spin-off since the series after his coronation in 2009.

With presenting and appearing on shows like This Morning, Celebrity Juice, Big Brother’s Bit on the Side, Judge Geordie and Loose Women, amongst other things – we’re sure Vicky’s got the skills (and her own personal experience) to make a great presenter on the show.

It's Not Me, It's You starts on Thursday, June 23 at 10pm on Channel 5.
