I’m a Celeb South Africa: Carol Vorderman and Helen Flanagan's eye-watering net worth revealed

Helen Flanagan and Carol Vorderman are currently starring on ITV's I'm A Celebrity. Nine former campmates landed in South Africa for the first "All Stars" series, which kicked off this week.

Filming took place in South Africa's Kruger National Park rather than Australia, and the stars will now compete with each other to be the first I’m A Celebrity Legend. Among the line-up are former stars Shaun Ryder, Amir Khan, Jordan Banjo and Phil Tufnell.

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.

Carol Vorderman

Carol, who owns a home in Clifton, is already one of the richest campmates to appear in the new series. The former Countdown star is reportedly worth around £18 million.

She spent 26 years co-presenting the Maths show as its resident and at her peak reportedly earned £1m per year. This made her one of the highest-paid women on TV in Britain at that time.

Now, Carol appears on a number of TV shows including Loose Women and Lorraine. She also hosts a radio show in Wales.

In 2016 she starred on I’m A Celebrity, reportedly earning £200,000 for her month’s stint in the jungle, and finished in eighth place. Away from TV, Carol has made a lot of money writing books.

Her best-seller Detox For Life reportedly earned her around £750,000 and her autobiography £100,000.

Helen Flanagan

The former Coronation Street star, who split from her ex-fiance Bristol Rovers' Scott Sinclair last year, is reportedly worth around £3 million. She earned quite a big chunk of her fortune from her time as a soap star.

While appearing on the popular show, she was nominated for multiple acting awards, including "Best Dramatic Performance from a Young Actor or Actress" in 2006. She's also appeared on Big Brother, Hell’s Kitchen and Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway.

Another big revenue for the celebrity is her social media platforms. It has been reported that she makes a whopping £4,500 for just one sponsored post.
