From Big Brother to the Bush: Reggie Bird Joins I'm a Celebrity
The news was first revealed this morning by News Corp, with the publication confirming that Reggie would be joining former Bachelor star Matty J as the second confirmed celebrity heading into the South African ‘jungle’.
The long-running reality series, now in its 11th season, is set to premiere tomorrow, Sunday 19th, with Julia Morris and Robert Irwin again returning as hosts to guide viewers through the jungle adventure.
Reggie Bird first rose to prominence in Australia after winning the third season of Big Brother in 2003, capturing the nation’s heart with her relatable charm, and later made a triumphant return to reality TV by winning Big Brother again in 2022.
Since her rise to fame, Reggie has been open about her ongoing public health battles, including a degenerative eye condition that has left her legally blind, as well as her advocacy for cystic fibrosis awareness in support of her son Lucas.
Other clues revealed for this year’s I’m a Celebrity Australia cast include a former Olympian, a reality TV star with a dramatic past, and a well-known comedian, all set to join Reggie and Matty J in the jungle.
