Fans have been eagerly anticipating Holly Willoughby's new show on Netflix with Bear Grylls titled Bear Hunt, and now the full-line up of celebrities taking part has reportedly been revealed.
Spice girl Mel B and Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas will be swapping the glitz and glamour for learning survival skills in the wild with Bear, according to The Sun.
Tennis legend Boris Becker, The Saturdays singer Una Healey and Ted Lasso actor Kola Bokkinni are also said to be taking part. Joining them will be Changing Rooms star Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, model Leomie Anderson, rugby ace Danny Cipriani, Kate Moss' younger sister Lottie Moss and chef Big Zu.
The final two names that have reportedly been revealed are presenter Steph McGovern and The Inbetweeners star Joe Thomas. A source told the aforementioned publication about Steph and Joe's signing: "Signing up Steph and Joe have made this one of the most diverse and unusual celebrity line up ever seen on a show like this.
"The dozen celebrities come from incredibly different backgrounds - whether it's ballroom dancing, singing, sport or interior design. They'll each bring something to the mix.

"None of the choices are obvious - particularly not Steph and Joe, neither of whom have been on our screens in some time."
Express.co.uk have contacted Netflix for comment regarding the line-up.
The premise of the show will see adventurer Bear, 49, hunt down a string of well-known faces as they’re dropped off in the Central American jungle.
He will teach the celebrities how to survive in the wilderness as they take on terrifying challenges in the upcoming series.

Netflix officially announced the thrilling show back in March as they shared the news on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The post read: "Holly Willoughby hosts this action-packed competition show that sees a group of unlikely British celebrities dropped into the Central American jungle as prey for one of the world's most fearsome predators – Bear Grylls!"
This will mark 43-year-old Holly's first project on the streaming giant after making the move over from ITV.
Despite plenty of back and forth, she hosted the previous series of Dancing on Ice but has yet to confirm if she's signed on to do another series of the skating show.
