Love Island star 'turns down I'm A Celeb' after being offered ITV job

ok.co.uk:

It's been reported that last year's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! early dropout Olivia Attwood won't be returning to the Australian jungle any time soon.The long-running iconic ITV reality show is just days away from returning to our screens, but despite some promising discussions behind the scenes, Love Island 2017 star Olivia, 32, has instead accepted a six-figure presenting gig while I'm A Celebrity concurrently airs.

A MailOnline source revealed: "Olivia was so upset when she had to suddenly leave the jungle last year… everyone saw how incredibly disappointed she was.

She had been in discussions with ITV to return to I'm A Celeb for months, both sides wanted it to work because it was unfair that her time on the show was cut so short when it was always her dream to take part. "But the opportunity to front a brand-new dating show on ITV came along and she jumped at the chance.The show is tipped to be the next big dating series since Love Island but centred more around exploring relationships, so it is a real full-circle moment for Olivia.

She adores presenting but also loves reality television and has never forgotten the platform that Love Island has given her… this new role perfectly marries the two." Olivia, who married professional footballer Bradley Dack back in the summer, has forged quite the working relationship with the broadcaster, so this new partnership isn't terribly surprising.
