Carol Vorderman and Helen Flanagan's incredible net worth revealed as they take part in I'm a Celeb

Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan and Countdown's Carol Vorderman are currently starring on the ITV spin-off show I'm A Celebrity... South Africa as former campmates from over the years battle it out to become the ultimate 'legend' of jungle life.

Gillian McKeith joined the first nine contestants Carol Vorderman, Shaun Ryder, Helen Flanagan, Janice Dickinson, Amir Khan, Jordan Banjo, Fatima Whitbread, Paul Burrell, and Phil Tufnell in South Africa’s Kruger National Park on Monday night's show.

Both Helen, 32 and Carol, 62, have been keeping their loyal fleet of followers updated with juicy 'behind the scenes' content on their social media platforms and participating in Q&A sessions ahead of the episodes airing each night, having been filmed in September last year.

PR expert Carla Speight told The Sun each star is set to make "hundreds of thousands of pounds" from their appearance and could earn even more money, depending on how much the public enjoys watching them in the all-stars instalment.

Carol Vorderman

Countdown host Carol Vorderman, who owns a lavish home in Clifton, is already one of the richest campmates to appear in the new series hosted by Ant and Dec with her net worth reportedly being worth around £18 million, Bristol post reports.

As the long-term familiar face of the popular Maths gameshow, Carol was said to have earned £1 million per year during filming Countdown making her one of the highest-earning women on British television at the time.

And her successful career didn't end there, as she now appears on a host of TV shows including Loose Women and Lorraine whilst also hosting a new radio show in Wales.

The mum-of-two appeared in the 16th series of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! and was said to have raked in £200,000 for her month’s stint in the jungle despite coming in at eighth place.

She has also made a pretty penny from writing books, with her best-seller Detox For Life reportedly earning her around £750,000 and her autobiography £100,000.

Helen Flanagan

The ex-Corrie actress, who split from her long-term fiance Scott Sinclair last year, is reportedly worth around £3 million with the bulk of it thanks to her iconic role as Rosie Webster in the popular soap.

During her stint on the show, Helen was nominated for multiple acting awards, including " Best Dramatic Performance from a Young Actor or Actress" in 2006.

The single mum-of-three also appeared on Big Brother, Hell’s Kitchen and Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway.

And not to much surprise, another big income comes from Helen's social media platforms, with it being reported that she makes a whopping £4,500 for just one sponsored post.

I'm A Celebrity... South Africa continues 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
