The couple told producers they did not want to continue their journey on the new ITV series.
The latest I’m A Celebrity spin-off has reportedly been thrown into chaos just days into filming after Tyson Fury’s daughter Venezuela Fury and her new husband Noah Price are said to have quit the show.
The 16-year-old daughter of heavyweight boxing star Tyson Fury and his wife Paris, and Noah, 18, are understood to have decided the show was not for them and walked away from filming in Canada.
The pair are reportedly said to have told producers they did not want to continue their journey on the new ITV series.
It is claimed Venezuela and Noah had made the decision early on after finding the challenges and living conditions too difficult.
The insider told The Sun: “They both realised early on it was too much. The challenges are tough, the living conditions aren’t easy. They both gave it their best shot but when push came to shove, it all got too much and they walked out.”
The source added that the decision would make “amazing television”, but admitted it had “caused a headache for producers”.
It is then claimed bosses moved quickly to find replacements, with 2025 Love Island winner Toni Laites and her best friend Marielle reportedly being approached to join the cast.
The source said producers believed Toni was the ideal person to step in.
“She has a lot of grit and determination and will show that when she starts filming,” they said.
The new series, titled I’m A Celebrity… The Wild Frontier, will see celebrities compete in pairs rather than individually.
Friends, relatives and couples will take on Bushtucker-style trials together, with the pairs then facing elimination as a duo. The competition will eventually culminate in a live grand final in London.
ITV has yet to officially confirm the full line-up, although a number of famous faces have already been spotted heading to Canada.
Jeremy Lynch and Paul Olima were seen at the airport last week preparing to board a flight to Vancouver.
Jeremy appeared in good spirits as he made his way through the airport, wearing grey sweatpants and wheeling a blue suitcase behind him.
He also appeared to make an effort to keep a low profile, wearing rose-tinted glasses and a black hat as he made his way through the terminal.
Ant and Dec have also teased the new series while revealing two celebrities who have apparently been banned from taking part.
Speaking on their Hanging Out with Ant and Dec podcast, the Geordie presenters joked that former footballer Jimmy Bullard and boxer David Haye would not be welcome.
Dec said: “We are doing a new spinoff series of I’m A Celebrity called I’m A Celebrity… The Wild Frontier.”
Explaining the concept, he added: “They will enter as a pair, compete as a pair, and eventually leave as a pair.
“And then it will all build up to a live grand final in London…”
Ant then interrupted with: “What could possibly go wrong?”
Laughing, Dec replied: “Jimmy Bullard and David Haye are barred from the series.”
Ant added: “I’d like them just in the front row, just for heckles, we like hecklers don’t we, hecklers corner?”
The new show is expected to air in 2027 as part of celebrations marking 25 years of I’m A Celebrity, which first launched in 2002.
Rather than contestants battling it out alone, the spin-off will see celebrities rely on their partner throughout the competition as they tackle challenges, win food and attempt to avoid elimination.
The series will ultimately see one pair crowned winners.
