It’s not long to wait until this year’s I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here begins and one celebrity has already been predicted a winner of the series.

While we know the confirmed lineup of celebrity contestants, they haven’t arrived in the jungle yet and will soon be stripped of all their familiar luxuries.

Bolton’s Danny Jones, known for being a member of McFly, is tipped to win the series.

The BonusCodeBets.co.uk Supercomputer analysed the traits of all previous 23 Kings and Queens of the Jungle, finding that the most likely winner is a 36-year-old male musician or actor.

Looking at this year’s lineup, Jones almost perfectly matches that of the typical winner, being a male musician and only two years older than the ideal age for a campmate.

The lead guitarist will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of boyband champions including Westlife’s Kian Egan, Busted’s Matt Willis and even fellow bandmate Dougie Poynter who took home the crown in 2011.

Speaking about the show, he said: “I felt very privileged to be asked to do it. This is an amazing opportunity.

“I had time in the diary which was insane. I’ll never get the opportunity again.

“I’ve always learned so much more from pushing myself out of my comfort zone.

“For me, it’s learning about myself as well and showing my little boy that it’s OK to be scared – it’s do it and conquer it.”

In a video posted to I'm A Celebrity's official social media pages, Danny said: "King of the Jungle would literally top off my year honestly. I'd love to be King of the Jungle."

Elsewhere, N-Dubz singer Tulisa might also fancy her chances of being ‘Number 1’ by matching the age and profession of our typical winner but she doesn’t match with the right gender.

Women have 10 victories to their name across the 23 series while a King has been crowned on 13 occasions.

Former Love Island star Maura Higgins is rumoured to be in the lineup but wasn’t confirmed by ITV however, there are whispers suggesting she could be one of the two campmates who join later in the show.

She will be attempting to make it two wins in a row for reality TV stars following on from Sam Thompson’s success last year while Dancing on Ice judge Oti Mabuse will be looking to buck a trend by becoming the first international Queen of the Jungle as well as the first dancer to win the show.

The bookies also seem to agree with the Supercomputer, making Danny Jones the 11/4 favourite, with YouTuber GK Barry (6/1) and ex-Love Islander Maura Higgins (13/2) close behind.

A spokesperson for BonusCodeBets.co.uk said: “Danny Jones ticks all the boxes of a classic I’m A Celebrity winner – he’s got the right profession, is the right gender and is only a couple years older than the ideal campmate.

“With the bookmakers and our Supercomputer both picking Danny to win, will the McFly star really go on to claim the crown? Well, as his band might say… Obviously.”
