A former I'm A Celebrity star has shared some "very big news" as they quit their show.

Jordan Banjo, who participated in both the main series of I'm A Celeb in 2016 and the South Africa special in 2023, made a huge announcement on Thursday (December 4).

After five and a half years presenting KISS radio's Breakfast Show, Jordan and his Diversity co-star Perri Kiely have revealed that they will be saying goodbye to the job at the end of January 2026.

The duo have decided to step away from their daily breakfast duties to focus on what is set to be a very busy 2026 with a new Diversity tour and lots more.

Breaking the news on their show this morning, Jordan and Perri said: "We have some very big news... there's no easy way to say this, we are moving on from KISS Breakfast.

"It's been quite the journey for the last five and a half years and we've spent every single morning with you guys. It's been an absolute pleasure, a privilege to wake up with you guys and have a laugh. It's been the most special years of our lives, genuinely, and we've enjoyed every single moment.

"We're going to get some lie ins back which is going to be a little bit weird to adjust to, but we do get to focus on all the other things that we get to do. We're about to go on our biggest Diversity tour yet and 2026 is going to be really busy.

"We're really excited about all those projects but we are really, really sad to be leaving."

Paul Gerrard, Content Director at KISS and Hits Radio, added: "Huge thanks to Jordan and Perri who have brought all the crazy energy, vibes, and creativity to KISS Breakfast on their time on the show - making mornings worth waking up for!

"There's no doubt that the KISS studios are going to miss having them around but we're wishing them both all the best for everything they're getting up to next."

Details of the next chapter for KISS Breakfast will be announced "very soon".

Jordan and Perri first found fame after their dance troupe Diversity won the third series of Britain's Got Talent back in 2009.

As well as dancing at the Royal Variety Performance multiple times, the group have also gone on several tours across the UK, and released their own fitness DVD.

Alongside two appearances on I'm A Celeb, Jordan was also a host on The Greatest Dancer with Alesha Dixon, was knocked out first on ITV's The Masked Dancer, and featured on Celebrity Gogglebox with Perri.

I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! airs at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX
