Strictly Come Dancing star 'signs up to I'm A Celebrity All Stars' as ITV prepare to jet celebrities to South Africa for series two
Seann Walsh is reportedly gearing up to go back on I'm A Me Out Of Here! All Stars version. The comedian, 39, hit headlines during his 2018 stint in Strictly Come Dancing when he was caught kissing his married dance partner Katya Jones on his then-girlfriend Rebecca Humphries' birthday. Seann originally jetted off to Australia for the ITV show in 2022 in the hope of 'redeeming himself' following the Strictly scandal four years prior. And during his time in the jungle Seann was popular with his campmates and viewers finishing in a respectable fifth place. Now the TV star is reportedly in advance talks with ITV about signing on the dotted line for the second series of the All Stars spin-off, which is due to be filmed in South Africa this year. A TV insider has told The Sun: 'When he went into the jungle in 2022 he very much did it in the hope of redeeming himself in the eyes of the viewing public. 'Which was no mean feat given he'd been branded an aggressive gaslighter as a result of his fling with Katya and his treatment of his girlfriend. 'Yet he managed to emerge as one of the more popular campmates and actually finished in a respectable fifth place in the contest. 'Part of the reason why he came across comparatively well was because he went into I'm A Celebrity with an even bigger love rat. 'His entry into the camp was alongside former Health Secretary Matt Hancock who was at the centre of an exclusive in The Sun revealing he had had an affair with a political adviser Gina Coladangelo in 2021.' MailOnline has contacted I'm A Celebrity and Seann's representatives for comment. The first All Stars series of the show aired in 2023, and brought back former campmates Myleene Klass, who finished in first place, as well as Helen Flanagan, Jordan Banjo, Shaun Ryder, Phil Tufnell and Carol Vorderman. It comes after Seann welcomed his second child, a son Casper with partner Grace Adderley earlier this year after keeping his partner's pregnancy a secret. Revealing the shock baby arrival, he posted a picture on his Instagram story of his daughter Wylda, two, who he shares with Grace. Alongside the picture of the little one with what looks like yoghurt on her head, he quipped: 'My first five minutes being left alone with Wylda and our newborn Casper. S*** just got real.' He then posted another picture, this time holding baby Casper, with Wylda sat in a high chair as the family ate lunch on a bench outside. Seann jokingly wrote: 'Gonna need a bigger boat'. Their baby news no doubt came as a surprise to fans as Seann and Grace never shared the news they were expecting. Seann first became a father in February 2023 after the couple welcomed daughter Wylda, and shared the happy news to Instagram. Taking to his stories, he shared a clip of himself as he sat in the hospital after the birth, saying: 'Grace has had our baby and I'm sat here in the very relaxing postnatal department, and the staff have been great. 'The nurses have been coming up to me all morning and congratulating me.' He then shared a post, which read: 'Oh btw. I passed out during the birth. Of course I did. The nurse's response... "Men." Fair.' The former Strictly Come Dancing revealed in October 2022 that he and his dance teacher girlfriend were having a baby. Speaking to a friend during an Instagram Live session at the time, Seann told a friend: 'I'm having a child.' Seann was then asked by the friend: 'So you're gonna be a dad?', before replying 'yeah' - with the unnamed man responding: 'That's worrying.' The funnyman then told his followers: 'Unbelievable. Everyone else has been really nice, that's the worst response yet.' Seann and Grace have been dating since 2019, but largely keep their relationship out of the spotlight.

All Saints' Mel Blatt stumped by two £5k riddles on Celebrity Catchphrase - but can YOU solve them?
All Saints ' Mel Blatt was left stumped by two riddles on Celebrity Catchphrase - but can you solve them? A previous episode of the ITV programme, hosted by Stephen Mulhern, saw the singer feature alongside Seann Walsh and Michelle Visage. She managed to work her way through the game show all the way to the last round. However, when Mel was tasked with out some more riddles, two that were worth £5,000 each proved to be too tricky. She managed to bag £2,500 on one question, but the next one, which showed a building on top of someone's shoulders tripped Mel up. 'Head, building, head in the clouds, building, building head, building... Pass,' the performer fumbled. The next catchphrase video quickly played and showed three people, two dressed in suits with the words 'Mon' and 'Wed' for heads, and another looking more casual and with 'Fri' on his head. Mel continued to vocalise different guesses but eventually shouted, 'Pass!' She managed to answer the next riddle correctly, which was the King And I, and bagged £5,000 in total at the end of the round. Stephen then revealed the first £5,000 question's answer was 'head office' and the second was 'dress down Friday'. Mel won a total of £9,400 for charity. It comes after Celebrity Catchphrase host Stephen Mulhern was left red-faced when he made the ultimate slip-up on a previous episode of the show. The host showed a clip of the latest guess the catchphrase question which featured a coffee shop with rapidly increasing prices. As guests Jeremy Vine, Charlie Hedges and comedian Luke Kempner watched on as the prices continued to increase through the coffee shop roof, the host failed to give them the opportunity to answer. Stephen (pictured) then revealed the first £5,000 question's answer was 'head office' and the second was 'dress down Friday' Stephen said: 'Literally, the prices have gone through the roof!' A hilariously awkward silence then fell over the studio when Stephen realised what he had done. Then Jeremy, 60, jokingly pressed his buzzer and said: 'Sorry, what? Was that the answer?' Stephen, who was clearly in disbelief at his mistake, proceeded to nod before the studio, celebs and audience burst into laughter. He admitted: 'I have never in my life done that. In 10 years!'

Seann Walsh reveals his phone was stolen 'straight from his hand' in London just days after a Strictly star was mugged
Seann Walsh revealed his phone was stolen 'straight from his hand' in London just days after a Strictly star was mugged. The comedian, 39, said that a thief nabbed the device 'a week or so ago' and it was now in China, according to Find My iPhone. Professional dancer Michelle Tsiakkas, 29, was also robbed in broad daylight in London this week, leaving her 'scared and helpless'. Following his ordeal, Seann shared a screenshot of his phone's whereabouts to his Instagram Story on Sunday and wrote: 'My phone was stolen (yes, out of my hand and yes, I live in London) a week or so ago and it is now in China if anyone happens to be passing by.' A fan replied to Seann and asked him to write a book about the things that have happened in his life. They added: 'I am very sorry about your phone but please, please write a book of all things that happen to you. "It could only happen to me."' Seann added: 'If there are any publishers following me, I am open to this but it will be a very long book. I'm calling it Typical.' Phone thefts in London have hit a record high with a shocking 37 people having their mobile stolen every day in the capital's West End alone. New data has revealed that almost 231,000 phone thefts and robberies were recorded over the past four years in the capital, a threefold increase. The epicentre for these brazen crimes is in the world's theatre capital, the West End, a magnet for tourists where around 40,000 phones were reported stolen over the same period, data by the Metropolitan Police shows. Elsewhere, Strictly dancer Michelle was on her way to the dentist early in the morning when her phone was snatched. In an emotional post on Instagram, the ballroom star recounted the 'traumatising' incident to fans whilst urging them to stay vigilant. Michelle said in a video message: 'This was a couple of days ago and I've just about mentally recovered from that. It was quite traumatising on the day. 'It wasted my whole day and made me feel awful, scared, helpless and I don't want the same to happen to you.' She explained: 'My phone got stolen. My phone got stolen. I mean I see it happening all the time but it's just one of those things that you just never think it's gonna happen to you. and then it does.' Michelle, who joined Strictly three years ago, said a man on a bike swiped her mobile while she was in Convent Garden. 'So it was early morning. I was on my way to the dentist in London. It was around Covent Garden so the streets were really quiet. 'I think I was just the only person around so maybe I was an easy target and I whipped out my phone to have a look at the directions to see where my dentist was. 'I was on the actual street of the dentist and what happens? A man comes on a bike behind me, sweeps past me and grabs my phone. 'So he's grabbed my phone. He's on an electric bike and my heart just sank. I tried to I think like reach for it and that made me fall on my knees on the floor and graze my knee. 'I think my reflex was just to swear and then scream give me back my phone and clearly you know that didn't work. 'He just left. He was wearing a mask so there was no way that I could have seen what he looked like and he was going really fast on that electric bike so there was no way on earth I could have caught up with him. 'Thankfully there were two really lovely and helpful women there and they'd seen that I was a bit distressed.'
