While an I’m A Celebrity spokesperson added: “Any names proposed at this stage are speculation.”

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Alan and ITV for comment.

In the 2022 series I’m A Celebrity, former lioness Jill Scott was crowned queen of the jungle, defeating soap opera star Owen Warner and Matt Hancock.

Alan has become a household name since he hit the cobblestones in 1998, playing hapless mechanic Tyrone, before marrying his childhood sweetheart Fiz.

The on-screen loves — who have had an on-off romance for two decades — finally tied the knot in episodes airing on Christmas Day, with fans raving about the sweet union.

Ahead of the much-anticipated nuptials, Alan and Jennie McAlpin – who plays Fiz – looked back at their characters’ best moments in a beautiful video put on by show bosses.

Speaking of the clip, Alan said, ‘It was quite interesting because we got to see several clips and honestly I couldn’t remember those.

“All these different moments in their lives… it’s been 20 years, I think, but there were times when we had real, big, passionate kisses and we looked at each other and I was like, ‘I don’t remember.’ .. I’m glad she doesn’t do that very well!”

And Jennie gushed, “It’s lovely to watch some of the early scenes, it’s been so long and you forget things you filmed together.”
