Just like the jungle campmates, I'm a Celebrity hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly are miles away from home where they live with their wives and children.
Dec, 49, has been married to his wife Ali Astall for nine years but the start of their relationship was "strange", as the ITV star put it. "It's going good. Everything's hunky-dory," the TV presenter said back in 2013.
"It was a little strange because we've had a working relationship for so long. But because it just happened there was no big ta-da. Things couldn't be better for me at the minute."

Dec and Ali's love story
The pair started dating in 2014 before announcing their engagement in December of that same year. The Saturday Night Takeaway host popped the big question on an Australian beach at sunset before travelling to film I'm A Celebrity.

Dec and Ali are now parents to two children - a daughter named Isla Elizabeth Anne Donnelly who was born in September 2018 and a son Jack Anthony Alphonsus Donnelly whom they welcomed in July 2022.

The star, who made his name on Byker Grove, keeps his family life out of the public eye but it has been reported that he took on a special role earlier this year when he was made godfather of Ant's first child Wilder McPartlin.
