Social media sensation Angry Ginge, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, has become a standout star of the 2025 series of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!, and the reported details of his appearance fee have now been revealed.
What Was Angry Ginge's I'm A Celeb Salary?
The 24-year-old content creator, who is the youngest campmate this year, was reportedly paid a substantial £100,000 to enter the jungle. This significant sum reflects his value to ITV, as bosses seek to attract a younger audience to the long-running reality show.
A source explained the logic behind the fee, stating: “Again, like Aitch, he’s on big money. He has the online fan numbers to make him an attractive prospect to ITV bosses desperate to make the show relevant to a younger audience.”
From Jungle Fame to Multi-Million Pound Future
This investment by ITV is expected to pay off handsomely for Burtwistle himself. Despite entering the jungle with an estimated net worth of between £804,000 and £1.1 million, his newfound mainstream fame is predicted to trigger a massive financial windfall.
An insider has reported that the exposure from the show is likely to help him bring in an "excess of £5 million in 2026". This forecast income is expected to come from a flood of brand endorsement deals, television opportunities, and commercial partnerships.
The "Stroke of Genius" Casting with Aitch
A major talking point of the series has been the pre-existing friendship between Angry Ginge and fellow Mancunian campmate, rapper Aitch. The pair first met in person in 2021 on the Tays & Ginge Off Stream podcast, after being connected through mutual friend Tays.
Their chemistry has been a highlight, and a TV insider told the Daily Mail that casting the friends together was a masterstroke. "It was a stroke of pure genius to sign up Aitch and Ginge for this year's series," they said.
"They’re best friends and it might be a risk as they’re both so boisterous but it’s new and nothing I’m A Celeb has seen before – it’s a risk that will pay off. Their banter and chemistry is off the charts," the source added.
With his £100,000 fee serving as a springboard, Angry Ginge is now tipped not only as a potential winner of the 2025 series but as a future multi-millionaire, poised to capitalise fully on his jungle adventure.
