ITV I'm A Celebrity star's place on show 'in doubt' just two days before launch episode

A ITV I'm A Celebrity star's stint on the show is reportedly in doubt - after she boarded a plane with Stacey Solomon. Maura Higgins, who is a star of ITV Love Island, is set to take part in I'm A Celebrity from Sunday night, according to reports.

But Maura has been spotted flying to a different country with Stacey this week. Maura is rumoured to be a late arrival to the Australian jungle camp along with author Reverend Richard Coles, the former BBC Strictly Come Dancing star.

Maura pictured herself boarding a flight on Instagram and posted a box on her Instagram Story that asked: "Where to?!" And Stacey shared a snap herself, revealing she was alongside Maura as she took to the flight herself.

"Wish me luck. Any vegas must-dos let me know. Feeling so grateful! Thank you @spacenk for this incredible opportunity. Love you guys so much." Maura and Rev Coles were part of the 12 household names heading Down Under in the full line-up reveal last month.
