A crown and a sceptre
According to The Independent, the winners of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here only win the title of King or Queen of the Jungle along with the crown and sceptre.
The winning celebrity doesn’t receive a cash prize, most likely because they are paid to take part in the show. However, they can win in other ways, which is what appears to be happening for the former England football star.
Plenty of job offers
Even if the winner doesn’t receive any cash prize, they often win in another aspect… career-wise. As reported by Mirror, Jill Scott’s management team has been flooded with offers of appearances for Jill.
A source close to Jill said:
The response has been incredible and Jill will be able to pick and choose what she does next. "Her team has been bombarded with offers of TV work and endorsements and all kinds of invites.
Jill already owns her own coffee shop and also wants to coach football.
