The moustached tattooed replacement is likely to terrify the celebrities but how much do we know about him and why has Kiosk Keith been replaced? Here's the lowdown…
Who is Kiosk Kev on I'm A Celebrity?
On November 13, 2018, The Sun Online exclusively revealed Kiosk Keith will be replaced by new shack owner Kiosk Kev.
A show insider told The Sun Online: "Everyone on set is really pleased with the new Kiosk Kev character – his look has to be seen to be believed. Viewers will love him but the celebrities will be scared stiff! Like Kiosk Keith, Kev is a man of few words and doesn't speak."
An I'm a Celeb spokesman confirmed to The Sun Online that Kev has been handed the keys to the Outback Shack, saying: "Kev won't take any nonsense from the celebrities, and he looks very intimating!
"The celebs from the previous series who thought Kiosk Keith was scary won't know how lucky they were – Kiosk Kev is truly terrifying."

Why is Kiosk Keith not on I'm A Celeb this year?
On January 5, The Sun Online revealed how Kiosk Keith had been fired after being accused of arriving to work drunk and behaving inappropriately towards a female colleague.
The 53-year-old, whose real name is Raymond Grant, was apparently drunk when he made the alleged unwanted advance towards a young female member of the crew.
A source told The Sun Online: "It wasn’t unusual for Keith to turn up to work drunk as he's done it before but this incident has shocked everyone."
His ex-wife Donna then denied Keith was a sexual predator to The Sun Online, revealing he got the boot after he “smacked a young female co-worker’s bottom”.
