The show has got viewers talking, and many want to know where the new I'm A Celeb is filmed and which series each of the stars have previously appeared on.
One celeb who viewers are please to see return is American model and TV personality Janice Dickinson. The star previously appeared on I'm A Celebrity in 2007, where she made headlines by completing a record ten bushtucker trials in a row, and came second in the series to winner Christopher Biggins. As she returns to the ITV show, viewers want to know more about Janice Dickinson's personal life, alongside why she left the jungle in a recent shock exit.
Is Janice Dickinson married?
Janice Dickinson has been married to Robert Gerner since 2016, having first met in 2012. Gerner - who she calls "Rocky" - is Dickinson's fourth husband, having previously been married to Ron Levy (1977 to 1979), Simon Fields (1987to 1993), and Alan B Gersten (1995 to 1996).
Dr Robert Gerner is a psychiatrist, and the pair got married in a small ceremony in Beverly Hills. According to PEOPLE, the pair met when they were set up on a blind date by Gerner's son, Robert Gerner Jr. Dickinson told the publication: "It’s taken me half a century to find a soulmate and thanks to the universe my stars were aligned the day Rocky and I met. He’s the best and he’s the brightest man I’ve ever met."
Janice Dickinson has also been romantically linked to actor Sylvester Stallone and the pair had an affair in 1994, while Dickinson was dating film producer Michael Birnbaum and Stallone was engaged to Jennifer Flavin.
They were then engaged for six months, but broke of the romance when a DNA test revealed that Stallone wasn't the father of the child Dickinson had given birth to six weeks previously.

Does Janice Dickinson have children?
Janice Dickinson has two children. Her eldest son, Nathan, was born in 1987 and his father is her second husband Simon Fields, while her daughter, Savannah, was born in 1994 and is shared with ex-boyfriend Michael Birnbaum.
Nathan is now working in the film industry with his father, and they have their own production company, Fields Entertainment, where Nathan works as a producer.
Nathan has previously spoken out about being "teased" as a child over details of his mother's personal life, telling the Mail Online, "Some kids teased me when I was younger about her sleeping with so many famous men and stuff, but I'm not interested."
It was Dickinson's second child, Savannah, who was rumoured to be Sylvester Stallone's daughter before a DNA test proved otherwise. Savannah also works in TV and film, having appeared in Netflix’s crime drama centred around Ted Bundy, Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile, and worked on the streaming service's TV series The Big Show Show.
Savannah has also worked as a script coordinator for Hulu and Apple TV, according to her LinkedIn.
