Married At First Sight (MAFS) former participant Martha Kalifatidis has reportedly turned down a big pay cheque to appear on the 2025 season of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
According to The Daily Mail, Martha was offered $80,000 to appear on I’m a Celeb but turned down the gig after consulting with her management team.
Martha said no to the jungle due to the way she predicted she would be portrayed on the show.
“My manager told me, ‘They’re just going to pick on you. You’ll be the ‘beauty girl’ under a magnifying glass’,” Martha explained to The Daily Mail.
Martha was also reportedly offered “flexible terms” to star on I’m a Celebrity, including the ability to skip out on tasks she didn’t like or eat anything she didn’t want to.
“She’s always been at the top of their wishlist, but she’s cautious about how it might affect her image,” an insider told The Daily Mail.
MAFS Martha’s reality show history
Martha appeared on MAFS during season six, where she met her now fiancé, Michael Brunelli. They have a very cute 1-year-old son, Lucius.
She was also offered a stint on Big Brother in 2022, but she also turned that down, according to The Daily Mail. However, her mum, Mary Kalifatidis, appeared on Big Brother Australia 13.
I’m A Celebrity 2025 will be premiering January 19 and will feature ten celebrities. All the clues about the upcoming cast can be found here.
