I’m A Celebrity’s Tulisa Contostavlos is set for a huge blow after she returned to the UK early from Australia.

The stars of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! have been dealt a huge blow as they’re set to lose a chunk of their impressive wages from the show.

And Tulisa could be set to lose a huge chunk of her rumoured £150,000 to £200,000 wage thanks to the taxman. It comes after she sparked concern with her behaviour following her surprise exit as third to leave the camp.

The singer flew home from Australia early, skipping the 2024 final, as well as the exits of other contestants and was forced to explain why she had archived posts about her time on the show.

Whilst rumours ran rife that she was fuming at her early exit, Tulisa explained that she was feeling overwhelmed with the attention she was facing after the exit, and needed some time to process.

But as she returns to the UK, Tulisa could be set to hand back just under half of her I’m A Celeb pay due to tax.

The singer is set to hand back between £70,000 to £94,000 of her wages, depending on the agreed amount, meaning she will only get to keep £80,000 to £106,000.

The group all had a tough time with the bushtucker trials, but they are handsomely compensated for their troubles. The 2024 season of the popular ITV reality show attracted a diverse group of celebrities, including a TikTok star, a dancing queen, a boxing champion, an A-list WAG and a chart-topping singer.

Riley Gardiner, founder of No Strings Public Relations, has provided his estimates for what each celebrity is earning for the 2024 show, reports the Mirror.

In an interview with OK! magazine, an expert shared insights into the earnings of celebs based on their star power: “The fee celebs get paid obviously depend heavily on public interest, recent media relevance, and the unique appeal they’ll bring to the jungle – plus how good they are at negotiating.”

The rest of the group will also face the same issue, and Coleen is set to lose the biggest amount of netting a major deal with ITV.

It was widely reported that Coleen Rooney was offered an impressive £1.5m in order to secure her for the current season, whole further reports suggest ITV is prepared to offer her an additional £1 million to keep her as a network talent.

Poor Coleen is set to return up to £750,000 of her pay due to tax, but she will still be quids in for 2024, thanks to her court win against Rebekah Vardy and her rumoured £1m ITV deal.
