The ages of the I’m A Celeb cast, ranked from youngest to oldest
Why did I think Coleen Rooney was much older?
This year’s I’m A Celeb cast has a truly mixed bunch when it comes to ages, with veteran reality TV stars like Jane Moore having decades of experience compared to the likes of GK Barry.
This year’s I’m A Celeb cast is stacked with names like Jane Moore, GK Barry, and the ever-controversial Tulisa. Viewers are already getting to know the celebs, from Danny Jones’ lies about snakes to Tulisa’s recent display of shocking maths skills.
While previous seasons have been packed with older British celebrities, for once, the ITV producers have covered all their bases with celeb representatives for Gen Z, millennials, and baby boomers.

Though he’s already been designated as the villain of the series, DJ Dean McCullough has had passionate defenders in his corner during his I’m A Celeb stint. Dean was born on July 9 1992, making him 32 and a Cancer, which could explain his behaviour.

I think we all collectively screamed “WHAT” when Maura revealed that she is 34 years old during a recent episode of I’m A Celeb. She was born at the onset of the 90s on November 25 1990, with her star sign being an adventurous and optimistic Sagittarius.

Oti Mabuse is another I’m A Celeb contestant who exudes youthful energy, so imagine my surprise when I learned that she was Leo born on August 8 1990. She is currently 34 years old.

The world has fallen in love with Tulisa, and her openness about sexuality, after she earlier fled from the UK after years of scandal and press persecution. Tulisa was born July 13 1988, making her a 36 year old Cancer.
Coleen Rooney – 38

Coleen Rooney was born on April 3 1986, making her 38 and an Aries. Considering people with the Aries sign are thought to be short-tempered, her star sign might explain the ongoing Wagatha Christie drama.
Danny Jones – 38

Many of us grew up with a baby-faced Danny Jones dancing around the stage as one part of the British boyband McFly. Well, that baby has now grown up and Danny Jones is 38 years old. He’s a Pisces, just in case you want to check your compatibility.
