MailOnline has contacted ITV and Tommy Fury’s representatives for comment.

Last week, it was reported that Tommy ‘pulled out’ of I’m A Celebrity, just two weeks before he was expected to fly off to the Australian jungle.

The boxer had been in talks with ITV producers for “months” to join the show.

However, it has been revealed that Tommy has been offered another, more lucrative project, which is believed to be a rematch between him and KSI.

A television insider said the sun: ‘Bosses are surprised that Tommy has decided to pull out of I’m A Celebrity at this late stage as it would have been a great opportunity for him too.

‘Fortunately, the executives already had some big names waiting in the wings, so now they will be looking to see which ones fit best into the line-up already booked in order to deliver a truly great series.

“With just weeks to go, bosses have lined up one of the most exciting casts in the show’s history.”

Molly-Mae shocked fans when she ended her engagement to the boxer after a five-year relationship in the summer.

Tommy has since been accused of cheating on Molly-Mae after sharing a passionate kiss with Dane Milla Corfixen, 20, during a boys’ holiday in North Macedonia.

Addressing the rumours, he said: ‘All the allegations that were made against me recently are completely false. The truth will come out eventually, and when it does, I believe many people will regret their unkind actions and words.

‘What the public thinks is happening is not what is happening. It’s not something I would have anticipated happening, but it didn’t come out of nowhere. It’s something that was there before all of this happened, but the only people who know what’s going on in our relationship are Molly and me.

During a new vlog earlier this month, Tommy teased fans that he had something “very, very exciting lined up for the end of the year.”

He refused to reveal more about his secret project.

Tommy has denied cheating on Molly and the source adds that attending the show could be his chance to give his side of the story.

Now, KSI and Tommy Fury are set for a rematch after the former’s manager admitted their camps are in talks.

The YouTuber has revenge on his mind after Fury earned a controversial unanimous decision victory in October 2023 despite being docked a point for illegal shots to the back of the head by KSI.

He is the only boxer to beat KSI – who has only had five fights, admittedly – and his opponent’s manager, Mams Taylor, told The Sun that a repeat could be on the cards.

“I think Tommy would do very well on the Misfits roster. And I know our teams are in touch with his team,” Taylor, also co-president of Misfits Boxing, told the outlet.

‘So watch this space. Let’s see what happens.

‘As for KSI and Tommy, I think when the time is right, that rematch should definitely happen.

“To this day people are still very divided about that outcome.”
