I’M A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! 2025 late arrival Tom Read Wilson’s Celebs Go Dating future has been revealed.
With rumours swirling that he has secretly quit the hit E4 show, which sees celebrities go on dates, Tom’s future on the programme has been unveiled.
A source told The Sun: “There were rumours doing the rounds that Tom was leaving Celebs Go Dating, with many believing the recent series would be his last.
“He even told some pals that he wouldn’t be back, and when he signed for I’m A Celebrity, it appeared to be the final nail in the coffin for his future on the E4 dating show.
“However, it turns out Tom has done a u-turn and will be back in the dating agency for the next series.
“Contract negotiations went down to the wire but Tom has signed up for another series of Celebs Go Dating, which he will film next year after he has returned from the jungle.”

The Sun has approached reps for the show and Tom for comment.
The 38-year-old won the nation’s hearts as the charismatic receptionist on the E4 matchmaking show, which he has appeared on since 2016.
A source previously told The Sun of his jungle stint: “ITV bosses are confident Tom will be a real breakout star in this year’s series.
“He’s got a huge personality and is totally hilarious, so he could be a real dark horse and be hugely popular with the public.”
He is not the only latecomer due to appear on I’m A Celeb this year.
The other celebrity due to join the cast after the show begins is Vogue Williams.
Prior to Celebs Go Dating, Tom, who is musically-trained, auditioned for The Voice but failed to get the coaches to turn their chairs.
But Tom has certainly had the last laugh, racking up an impressive CV of telly appearances over the years.
Tom has popped up on everything from Big Brother’s Bit on the Side to Loose Women and even Countdown’s Dictionary Corner.
Back in June, The Sun revealed that The Grand Tour With Tom Read Wilson, for Channel 5 was in production.
We also revealed that the show will have an historical slant like Rylan Clark and Rob Rinder’s similarly named BBC hit — which won them a Bafta earlier this year.
A source revealed: “The success of Rob And Rylan’s Grand Tour series proves there’s appetite among viewers for smart, entertaining journeys through history — and now Channel 5 want some of the pie.
“Tom has long been a big fan favourite on Celebs Go Dating, thanks to his dry wit and one-liners, so it makes sense for him to be more in the limelight.
“This new series combines history and culture as he explores famous landmarks and delves into the stories behind them. Filming has already begun and fans can expect to tune in later this year.”
Tom will retrace the European grand tour of the 17th, 18th, and 19th Centuries when it was a rite of passage for wealthy British men.
The show is set to premiere on Channel 5 on December 4, 2025.
