As this year’s star-studded I’m A Celeb cohort are touching down in Oz, viewers are gearing up to watch their every move on screens during their three-week stay in the critter-infested camp.

Coleen Rooney was the final arrival to Brisbane Airport on Tuesday, as she stepped off the plane clutching a £1,762 leather tote bag from Chanel and donning a £1,000 nylon bomber jacket from Loewe.

However, before the class of 2024 make it to the Australian outback, the famous faces which include the likes of Oti Mabuse and Tulisa, will have to ditch to glamour and make sure they abide by a series of strict rules.

From nicotine to handbags, there are a number of rules this year’s celebs should be aware of both inside and outside of the jungle. 

Here, using research from Northerner, MailOnline rounds up the unexpected restrictions the contestants will have to follow when entering Australia and the jungle, ahead of the new series kicking off on Sunday…

The famous faces which include the likes of Oti Mabuse (above) and Tulisa, will have to ditch to glamour and make sure they abide by a series of strict rules as they enter the country

Leather handbags and fake designer items

Australia has some of the strictest biosecurity regulations, with all travellers entering the country having to declare any goods that can be considered ‘wildlife products’. 

This even includes things like leather and fur – so if the celebs are planning on flaunting their expensive bags and real furs for the paparazzi ahead of the official jungle entrance, they may want to think twice or risk having it confiscated.

Most leather goods, hides, furs and skins that have been effectively and fully tanned are allowed into the country, however they must be declared.

Fake (counterfeit) goods including things like brand name or designer clothing, handbags, shoes, cosmetics, perfume and hair straighteners are also not allowed. 

Vapes

Australia has incredibly strict rules when it comes to vapes and tobacco products.

Surprisingly, all vaping products brought into the country must be accompanied by a prescription from a doctor. 

Australians can only buy vapes from a pharmacy, unlike in the UK where vape stores, supermarkets and convenience stores can sell vaping devices.

Keen viewers will know in previous years some celebs in the jungle are seen smoking and even vaping. 

This is because, despite numerous bans on other items, the celebs are allowed a supply of nicotine, whether that be through cigarettes or through vapes. 

While smokers are free to smoke as much as they wish, those who plan on using a vape are required to get a prescription from a doctor before entering the show.

Other nicotine items such as nicotine pouches or patches are also allowed in the camp.

The new series is set to kick off on Sunday (L-R Tulisa, Coleen Rooney, Barry McGuigan, Danny Jones, Melvin O’Doom, Oti Mabuse, Alan Halsall, Jane Moore, GK Barry and Dean McCullough)

Weight loss items

For as long as the show has been on, celebrities have been able to continue taking prescription medication. 

And this year, new rules mean that contestants who have been prescribed Ozempic or any other skinny jabs will be able to keep taking them.

Campmates can only bring three pairs of pants

The celebs are only allowed to take the absolute essentials in with them, and that rule extends to underwear. 

While in season one celebs were only allowed to take one pair of knickers, this reportedly has since been extended to three.

This is why viewers will see the celebs doing their washing so often while on the show.

Cosmetics

The importation of cosmetic products containing more than 250 mg/kg of lead or lead compounds is prohibited in Australia. 

While there aren’t lots of products which would contain lead acetate, this is the only cosmetic ingredient that is known to be used in cosmetics at a level above 250 mg/kg, so celebs arriving in Australia should be aware of this restriction. 

Products like Kohl, mascaras, and even some face washes can exceed these limits and could be seized on arrival.

Deodorant is now allowed

Another season one ban that was later dropped, was a ban on deodorant. 

Rumour has it that the contestants smelt so bad that the crew complained, and the deodorant ban was therefore lifted.

Coleen Rooney has broken her silence on the rumours she could be ruled out of a string of I’m A Celebrity challenges after detailing her agonising health condition

The 38-year-old WAG is gearing up for her hugely anticipated appearance on the ITV series which kicks off November 17 and wraps up December 8

It comes after Coleen Rooney broke her silence on the rumours she could be ruled out of a string of I’m A Celebrity challenges after detailing her agonising health condition.

The 38-year-old WAG is gearing up for her hugely anticipated appearance on the ITV series which kicks off November 17 and wraps up December 8.

Ahead of her jungle stint, rumours have been swirling that Coleen could be exempt from some Bushtucker Trials as she has reactive arthritis, which affects the joints and is set off by stress. 

The star previously shared that she suffered a crippling bout of the condition due to the stress of her Wagatha Christie legal battle with Rebekah Vardy.

However, Coleen has cleared up the speculation that it could hold her back in a video message shared with her one million Instagram followers – and revealed that nothing will be off limits.

She gushed: ‘I would like to experience it, something different, do something for myself, meet new people. I’m looking forward to doing the trials.

‘There’s been a lot of news saying that I can’t do trials because of certain illnesses but I can confirm I can do every trial, so I am not excluded from any, that was just a load of rubbish.’

Before Coleen’s video, it was reported that ITV medics would help to ease her symptoms if she were to suffer a flare-up during her time in the jungle.

Speaking to the camera for part of her docu-series The Real Wagatha Story in 2023, Coleen revealed the May 2022 court case triggered her reactive arthritis

A source previously told The Sun: ‘The duty of care on I’m A Celeb is second to none and over the years the cast have been ruled out of challenges for a string of different reasons.

‘Some might have seemed trivial to viewers but the health and happiness of the celebs is of execs’ utmost concern. Coleen’s reactive arthritis being triggered by stress means execs want to wrap her in cotton wool and keep her happy and healthy.’

‘The condition is currently under control so at this stage it’s a ”could be” ruled out rather than a ”will be”. But her physical health will be monitored and, if she suffers a flare-up, her ability to perform each trial will be considered on a case-by-case basis.’

In 2019 Coleen accused her former close friend Rebekah of leaking private stories about her to the British press, something that the latter continues to deny.

Speaking to the camera for part of her docu-series The Real Wagatha Story in 2023, Coleen revealed the May 2022 court case triggered her reactive arthritis, which causes redness, swelling and inflammation in the joints.

She said: ‘It caused anxiety and there were lots of tears. I have reactive arthritis. I’ve had it previously but this situation brought it on a lot more.

‘It stripped me of my character and I didn’t want to socialise with people. I was completely in my own world. It was not a nice place to be.’

The WAG continued: ‘It hit home just how low I was at that time. My emotions really came out and that made the interview process quite intense, but then it was also a good chance to reflect.

‘I stuck to my guns from beginning to end. My story never changed from day one, and I was telling the truth.’
