Traitors victor Harry Clark is in early talks to appear in this year’s I’m A Celebrity.
The army engineer, 23, has been swamped with requests and offers since triumphing in the BBC show. Sources say some 10 agents have been bidding to land Harry, while ITV bosses have approached him to ask if he’d consider a stint in the jungle.
Harry is now reportedly quitting his job to cash in on his reality TV success. One source revealed: “The Traitors was so huge this year and since they left, the finalists’ feet have barely touched the ground. All of them have been swamped and, as the winner, Harry has been at the centre of the whirlwind.
“Since the win, he has been approached by casting directors from ITV who want him to appear in the jungle this year. He would be a great get for them and he is seriously considering saying yes – it would be a really incredible opportunity.”
Nearly seven million viewers tuned in to watch Harry win the £95,000 prize money last month after duping Mollie Pearce into believing he was a Faithful. He came within a hair’s breadth of being banished as Mollie, his best friend on the show, named him a Traitor before asking host Claudia Winkleman if she could change her answer to Jaz Singh.

Model Mollie, 21, was seen swearing in shock and walking off the set as Harry – who is dating ex-CBBC presenter and influencer Anna Maynard – toasted his win with champagne.
He says he plans to treat his fellow contestant and her boyfriend to a luxury trip to Bali to say sorry. The source added: “If Harry does go into the jungle, it will be a really interesting twist – and a chance for ITV to buy into the BBC show’s massive success. Plus he’ll be a pro at anything that involves duping other campmates.”
