The Reverend and the Love Islander host a show – it’s an idea that will have producers rubbing their hands together in glee.
And now it appears this could become a reality as I’m A Celeb’s Maura Higgins and Reverend Richard Coles have formed such a dynamic duo on the ITV show that conversations about them starting their own venture have already begun.
A source close to Maura, 34, told : ‘Maura is learning to open up more since she’s been in the jungle and she’ll be overjoyed to learn that people want more of that.
‘And being in there day and night, with such a mixed bunch, she’s meeting so many wonderful personalities who are bouncing off her, it will definitely be making her think she could be interested in turning that into a potential career move.
‘Plus her relationship with the Reverend is so unique and would make them a perfect partnership to move forward together in the future.’
Maura and Rev Richard, 62, entered the show as late arrivals together and immediately struck up an unlikely friendship with the pair remaining closely bonded throughout the experience with viewers loving Maura’s calls of ‘Fader!’ in her Irish accent.
