Ta-Ta Tara!
TELLY bosses have axed Tara Palmer-Tomkinson from I’m A Celebrity – and replaced her with Kelly Osbourne.
Tara, 34, has been co-presenting ITV2’s coverage since 2003.
The channel’s show gives fans extra footage and gossip on the events in the Aussie jungle.
But bosses have decided to completely change its format. And Tara and fellow presenter Matt Brown, 32, are the casualties.
Instead of having the show live from Australia, it will come from a London studio. Comic Brendon Burns will speak to the families and friends of the contestants.
Meanwhile, in Australia, Kelly, 22, will report live from the jungle, revealing all the latest gossip, news and unseen footage.
A source close to Tara said: “She will be gutted not to be involved any more.
“She loves the show and always was a livewire that helped make it so unpredictable and fun.
“It will be interesting to see how Kelly copes with the heat and pressure of working on the show.”
An ITV2 spokesman said last night: “The format of the show is evolving all the time.
“It has been revamped and revolutionised for this series.
“We have brought in two new presenters as a result of that.”
