There has been a massive shake-up at the top of the I'm A Celebrity betting market.
There has been a major shift at the top of the I’m A Celebrity betting markets, as Danny Jones has dropped out of the number one spot for the first time.
He has been replaced by Coleen Rooney as the bookmakers’ favourite to win the show, with her odds cut from 3/1 to 6/4 (best pirce 10Bet) since Monday night’s episode.
Jones, who has been atop of the odds board since the markets opened for this series, has seen his odds go the other way from 1/1 to 7/4 (Best price BetMGM) in the past 24 hours.
So far on Tuesday, Rooney is leading the total bets placed through oddschecker, taking 30% of the share compared to Jones’ 25%.
This marks a sharp decline in Jones’ chances, having been as strong as 1/2 in the market last Saturday, projecting a 66.7% probability of winning the show.
Rooney, on the other hand, could be backed at odds as big as 9/1 (10% probability) on the same day.
The only other celebrity with odds close to these two is Richard Coles, currently a 5/1 third favourite (William Hill), with the remainder of the cast at odds of 30/1 and bigger.

Leon Blackman from oddschecker said: “After weeks of dominating the betting markets, Danny Jones has been dethroned as the favourite to win I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.
"Since the markets opened, Jones has held the top spot, but Tuesday morning saw Coleen Rooney storm ahead. Her odds have shortened dramatically from 3/1 to 6/4, backed by the highest share of bets on oddschecker over the past 24 hours.
"With Sunday’s finale fast approaching, it’s shaping up to be a two-horse race between Rooney and Jones, although there’s always the potential for more twists in the betting markets.”
