According to The Sun, footballer Wayne Bridge is the next highest paid celebrity campmate, taking home £150,000.
Soap stars Larry Lamb, who starred in ‘EastEnders’, and ‘Emmerdale actor Adam Thomas are both reported to have banked six-figure pay cheques.
Former ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ pro Ola Jordan will bag £90,000, whilst ‘Gogglebox’ star Scarlett Moffatt and radio presenter Lisa Snowdon will walk away with £70,000 each.
At the bottom of the pay scale are Olympic hockey player Sam Quek who is reported to have been paid between £40,000 and £70,000, whilst Diversity star Jordan Banjo and former Skins actor Joel Dommett will both take home £25,000.
A source told The Sun: “Carol doesn’t need the money so ITV had to come up with something decent because she’s the show’s main focal point at the moment as she is the most recognisable star.
An ITV spokesperson said: “We never comment on participants individual contracts.”
Ant and Dec will be back to host the new series, which kicks off on Sunday (13 November) at 9pm on ITV.
