Yahoo News I'm a Celebrity's Coleen Rooney responds to £1m TV deal rumours
I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star Coleen Rooney has responded to rumours that suggest she is going to receive a £1 million TV deal.
The Wagatha Christie star was runner-up on this year's edition of the ITV reality show, with McFly singer Danny Jones becoming the new King of the Jungle during Sunday's (December 8) final.
Coleen quickly became a fan-favourite campmate during the series. As her popularity continued to rise, reports suggested that she would land a lucrative TV role following her stint in the jungle.
Speaking on Good Morning Britain on Monday (December 9), Coleen addressed the speculation, revealing that she didn't have "a clue" about the deal.

"Well, that's news to me," she told hosts Susanna Reid and Richard Madeley.
"Apart from speaking to Wayne and my boys, I haven't seen anything and I don't intend to until I get back into the UK. I'm looking forward to Christmas, and then in January I will sit down with my team and see what I am going to do going forward."
Coleen went on to explain that her experience down under has been a "dream", and shared why she felt it was the right time for her to take part in the show.
"It feels like a dream, it felt like a dream all the way through," she said. "I sat there sometimes thinking, 'I am actually in this jungle, on this show that I have watched for years. What am I doing?'"

"This year it felt different, I was ready to go in. My kids are that little bit older and I felt like I could leave them and be at ease," Coleen continued.
"And also, within myself, I have had a lot going on in the past and I haven't felt ready, whereas I thought, 'You know what, give it a go'. I love the show and it was a challenge... I don't regret anything now coming out."
Elsewhere in the interview, Coleen said that her campmates were "surprised" by her ability to get "stuck in" around the camp, before revealing that she was more "scared" of doing karaoke and cooking than the Bushtucker trials.
If you're already missing I'm a Celeb, you can tune into the Coming Out show on Friday (December 13), which follows each celebrity as they leave the jungle.
I'm a Celebrity... airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
