Rocker Ozzy Osbourne’s son Jack is set to take part in this year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
The youngest child of Sharon Osbourne and Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy, who passed away this summer at 76, will head to Australia for the ITV series, which kicks off on November 16.
Dad-of-four Jack, 39, is expected to draw the most attention among this year’s all-star cast, with the Osbourne family in the spotlight following Ozzy’s passing.
A TV insider revealed, “He’s believed to be entering the jungle with the full support of his mother and sister Kelly. Jack is very likely to talk about Ozzy, which will be an incredibly moving moment for both the campmates and viewers, as well as Ozzy’s fans.
“The I’m A Celeb team are thrilled to have secured Jack. He’s been a star in his own right since rising to fame on The Osbournes 23 years ago.”
London-born Jack Osbourne first rose to fame on the hit fly-on-the-wall series The Osbournes, which followed him, his sister Kelly, and their parents in their LA home.
He has returned to the public eye following his father Ozzy’s death in July, appearing alongside his mother and siblings as they mourned, and featuring in two recent documentaries celebrating the rock legend.
Jack has previously shown his adventurous side on ITV’s Jack Osbourne: Adrenaline Junkie (2005–2009) and the History Channel’s Ozzy & Jack’s World Detour (2016–2018).
This year, he will be joined in the jungle by an all-star lineup including soap actresses Shona McGarty and Lisa Riley, TV sports host Alex Scott, comedian Ruby Wax, rapper Aitch, and YouTube personality Angryginge.
ITV added that “any names suggested for I’m A Celebrity are speculation.”
