Phillip Schofield places his bets on Scarlett Moffatt to win I’m A Celeb!

Phillip Schofield is tipping Scarlett Mofatt to be crowned queen of the jungle for I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!

The 26-year-old Googlebox star was the favourite before she entered the jungle but now bookies have Adam Thomas down as 7/4 to win.

Scarlett’s run-ins with Homes Under the Hammer star Martin Roberts and former EastEnders star Larry Lamb have seen her slip to 2/1.

Despite the odds being stacked against her, Phillip is sticking to his guns and says she has what it takes to go all the way to win this year’s final.

Talking to Yahoo! Celeb at the ITV Gala, he said: “I think Scarlett is going to win because she’s got it together.

“She is very sharp and also has a great sense of humour which is perfect for a future Queen of the jungle”.

The 54-year-old This Morning Presenter also revealed he is a massive fan of the I’m A Celeb and would even take part in the programme as a celebrity contestant.

Phillip said: “If there’s ever one of the big reality ones that I’ll do it’ll be that one. I actually flew out to Australia to watch them make it that’s how much I love it.

“I literally love the scale of it and Ant & Dec are brilliant.”

The TV star also gave us a mini scoop on ITV’s flagship show hitting the road in 2017.

He said: “We’re going out on the road to do This Morning live from the NEC Birmingham and we’ve never done that one before for us.”
