She competed on Strictly Come Dancing in 2018
A show source told The Sun: 'Producers would love to see Ashley head back to camp.
She's warm, hilarious and of course, drop dead gorgeous.
"Just like Myleene Klass, who won the first All Stars series back in 2023, Ashley had some iconic moments soaping up in the outback waterfall.
'Stripping back down to her swimwear on TV again netted Myleene some very lucrative deals after the show, and it's sure to do the same for Ashley if she makes the final line-up.'
Behind the scenes, production are currently finalising the cast after months of top-secret meetings.
'There are some great names in the mix,' our source continues. 'The team are spoilt for choice, but Ashley is a very strong contender.'
The Sun has contacted ITV for comment.
Heart FM host Ashley first headed Down Under for her original stint on the show in 2012, where she finished as runner-up to EastEnders star Charlie Brooks.
Six years later, she also reached the final on Strictly Come Dancing, but Stacey Dooley pipped her to the Glitterball.
If Ashley signs on the dotted line to return to the jungle, the series will film in South Africa's Kruger National Park later this year, and broadcast in 2026.

Unlike the regular Australian series, which will air as normal in November, the All Stars version is pre-recorded and does not involve a viewer vote - instead the camp mates choose their winner.
Other returning All Stars in the running to return are Scarlett Moffatt, Seann Walsh, Adam Thomas, Harry Redknapp and Gemma Collins.
Gemma's deal to sign up is said to be worth over £150,000.
She famously quit 2014's main show after just three days.

Everything to expect on the UK's £22 naked cruise (hot pasties included)
Each year, more than 100 punters take a three-hour cruise down the River Exe estuary in Devon… completely naked. The Nude Cruise has just run for its 13th year in a row and one punter has revealed just what goes on onboard, spilling the details on the one golden rule that mustn't be broken. What is it? Well, this isn't a boat trip for swingers or sex parties, so, anyone caught doing anything x-rated will be banned for life. 'It's really sad that a large percentage of the population equate being naked only with sex – it's not,' cruise founder Rachel Wick told The Sun. 'If they came to our event, they would see it's clearly not what it's about. If somebody misbehaves, they will be on our banned list.' While no one has been barred from the cruise yet, Rachel, 50, is diligent because she says you can feel vulnerable when you haven't got your clothes on. Fuel your wanderlust with our curated newsletter of travel deals, guides and inspiration. Sign up here. The double-decker ship carried 120 bare passengers this year, and journalist Ben Endley revealed for The Sun the experience was 'remarkably normal'. He went so far as to say the trip could've been organised by a local village church group – although that may be a bit of a stretch. The cruise was composed largely of pensioners, and there were multiple things onboard to keep them busy, from a raffle to a naked disco. One song that got bare bodies on the dance floor was Dancing in the Dark by Bruce Springsteen. There was also a cash-only bar (how retro) which prompted many guests to wear fanny packs to carry their bank notes and phones. A free hot pasty`was also on offer for everyone on board. It sounds rather perilous when you're starkers, but luckily no injuries were reported. Rachel, who is a local authority administrator, has been organising the cruise since 2012 with her partner Nigel, but they run other nude events too, as part of the Torbay Sun Club. She loves the concept of a naked party because you can't tell who is rich or poor, working or retired. 'When you can't judge people's status, we're all on a level,' she says. While some guests on the cruise kept to themselves through fear of their bosses finding out about their naturism, one guest, Mark Carroll, explains his generation is more comfortable with it all. 'The more people hear about it, the more they want to get involved,' he says. Passenger Kevin Little, 61, has been a naturist since 1997, and tells The Sun he's a fan of being naked because it saves him paying for extra luggage on flights. Sex parties are coming to an ocean near you. Killing Kittens, the kink-positive event company, is launching a very naughty cruise promising a pretty pleasurable holiday for couples and singles alike. At a glance you might mistake it for a luxury all-inclusive trip, with the itinerary departing from Barcelona to Monte Carlo, before journeying on to Florence and Portofino. But the cruise is certainly one-of-a-kind, hosting a heady timetable of Killing Kittens events, including its popular White Party, a masked ball, the Kreatures of the Night primal soiree, the latex themed Dominion, and Hedonism, the longest-running Killing Kittens event. But just because you can let loose in one of the 'play rooms', it doesn't mean you can get lawless at sea. In fact, the Killing Kittens cruise has some very strict rules… Read here for all the juicy details. He enjoys connecting with nature, but finds the jokes about his naked preferences annoying. More Trending 'We get frustrated by the cliched, seaside-postcard, t*ts-and-willy jokes but it's been that way for so long, it's hard to get away from,' he says. Of all the guests onboard, the general consensus was the younger generation is too 'prudish' and that nudity is helpful for self-expression. So it was understandable that, when the boat returned to the dock, the passengers were a little reluctant to cover up once more. Do you have a story to share?

Danny Jones and wife put on defiant display ahead of awkward Maura Higgins run-in
McFly star Danny Jones shares a rare insight into his family holiday with his wife Georgia Horsley and seven-year-old son, ahead of his reunion with Marua Higgins at the NTAs McFly star Danny Jones has been soaking up the sunshine on a sweet family getaway, as the singer reminded fans just how loved-up he is with wife Georgia Horsley, before an awkward reunion with Maura Higgins next month. Sharing a series of cosy holiday snaps on Instagram, Danny, 39, looked completely relaxed as he posed alongside former Miss England Georgia during their sun-drenched break. The couple, who tied the knot in 2014, looked happier than ever as they enjoyed some downtime with their seven-year-old son, Cooper. Musician Danny cut a smart figure in one snap, wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, while Georgia looked glamorous in a plunging top and some stylish shorts. Other snaps included the stunning scenery and their son Cooper pulling funny faces. Danny captioned the post: "Some time in the sunshiiiiine!'. It comes after David Beckham speaks 'as a father' in 'family' announcement after latest Brooklyn snub. The sweet family holiday has come ahead of the NTAs, which could see Danny and Maura Higgins have an awkward red carpet run-in following their drunken kiss at the BRIT Awards after party in March. Marua and Danny met when they were stuck in the I'm A Celeb jungle in Australia for three weeks. The popular ITV show has previously picked up 15 National Television Awards and is often shortlisted for the Best Entertainment category. Upon winning an award, the crowned winner of the show usually joins TV hosts Ant and Dec on stage for their 'thank you' speech. This would make Danny Jones at risk of bumping into Maura after spending time away from the spotlight to repair his marriage. A source revealed to The Sun: 'Danny is expected to attend NTAs on September 10, as have all previous reigning jungle winners — and Maura is also going. She is the queen of a red carpet moment and adores getting glammed up.' The source added: 'There will have to be some clever choreography to ensure they don't end up next to each other when walking the red carpet, but they could both end up on stage if I'm A Celebrity wins. 'Maura won't be answering any questions about the kiss. She's put the incident behind her and feels she has nothing to be ashamed of. Danny has also been moving on, but they knew that their paths were bound to cross at some point.' Danny and Maura became embroiled in a scandal after the BRIT Awards this year. A video showing the two sharing a kiss resulted in a dicey time for Danny's marriage to influencer and wife of 11 years, Georgia. He has spent the year quietly attempting to repair their relationship after Georgia left the family home for a period of time to cool off The 2025 NTAs will take place on 10th September for the 30th anniversary. The award show is known for being one of the most glamorous and chaotic nights in the showbiz calendar, where TV's familiar faces gather to toast their achievements.
