Tony Armstrong goes Dr. Replacing Chris Brown in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
The Logie-winning sports reporter, 33, will replace the handsome vet according to a report in women’s Day magazine.
A source told the outlet that Tony was the full package when it came to being an on-screen presenter.
“Let’s face it, Tony is a dream boat,” they said.
‘He’s tall and handsome, as well as charming and witty with loads of charisma. He’s the complete package – and ridiculously popular.’

According to the report, Sam Pang was Tony’s main competitor, who was praised for his Logies effort this year.
The source went on to say that while Sam is a “great talent,” he doesn’t have the appeal of Tony for viewers.
“Tony will work better against Julia and she’s a big fan of his. I can definitely see her flirting with Tony, just like she did with Chris.’

It comes after Julia Morris Yahoo Lifestyle! last month that the show will run in a “completely different way” following the departure of her co-host after they shared the screen for nearly a decade.
Brown left Channel 10 for more on-screen opportunities at rival Seven.
Julia explained that she is testing her “chemistry” with six potential candidates and the selection will change the dynamic.
“I will have to put everything from the past behind me,” the 55-year-old told the publication.

“Whoever comes in will want to build it together,” Julia continued.
‘So there is plenty of room for that person, we are curious who that will be.’
Julia added that making the right choice is essential to the future success of the popular reality series.
“Whoever that person is will have a huge effect on whether I work for years to come, so I want it to work,” she said.
It comes after Morris recently told Yahoo that the reality show will take place in a “completely different way” following her co-host’s departure.
