ITV I'm A Celebrity star 'knows' who first two campmates voted off will be
Jane Moore has sparksed an ITV I'm A Celebrity 'ageism' row as she speaks out on being the most likely for the axe. The 62-year-old ITV Loose Women star will enter the jungle on Sunday evening as Ant and Dec get ready for another three weeks in camp.
She wrote in the Sun: "As a woman ‘of a certain age’ there’s a level of invisibility in society, even if you’re pretty gobby like me. So when a friend told me website Oddschecker already has me as the least likely to win, I wasn’t surprised."
Moore continued: "Boxer Barry McGuigan, 63, is one of those with me in the predicted bottom three and we are two of the three oldest campmates by some margin, so make of that what you will." She said: "As a generation who grew up without social media (heaven), we will also have the smallest online followings."

"Will that matter when it comes to votes? Maybe. Maybe not. But hand on heart, I don’t care," she penned. She said: "If it were to happen, I would enjoy the moment. When I have seen this programme in the past, it’s all about the people who are having the experience together and the great camaraderie.
"It’s not the winning but the taking part. Now I’m A Celebrity is approaching, it’s exciting. I am really looking forward to the whole experience." She added: "I am really excited. I’m apprehensive about being away from home, being isolated and away from my phone and laptop – but actually, this is also the very thing I am looking forward to.
"I have never done a reality show before and I’ve always said when we talk about these things on Loose Women that this programme would be the one. I like an adventure and it appeals to me. In fact, my Loose Women colleagues have been saying to me for so many years to do I’m A Celebrity, telling me, ‘You would love it’. Linda Robson said she would go back in a heartbeat, and I think they will be thrilled when they find out that I am finally taking their advice and the leap."
