I’m A Celebrity winner Harry Redknapp is going on tour later this year and the former footballer manager is charging fans around an extra £15 to take a photo with him at his shows
Fans of millionaire Harry Redknapp are being told: “He’s a celebrity… get him £15 more for a selfie.” The extra charge is being slapped on those who want a snap with the King of the Jungle at a talk he is hosting.
The former football manager, whose love for wife Sandra and jam roly-polys helped him win ITV reality show I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here in 2018, is touring venues near his Sandbanks home in Dorset. But only fans with an £80 VIP ticket for An Evening with Harry Redknapp at St Petroc’s Church in Bodmin, Cornwall, will get a selfie with the 78-year-old.
Others at the October 9 event, who have splashed out up to £60 for a ticket, must pay £15 more for a pic. At Tregenna Castle in St Ives on October 3, a VIP ticket with a selfie costs £169, or £149 without one. It comes after Channel 4 breaks silence after Gogglebox couple suddenly dumped from show .

Fans who stump up for the £169 ‘Premium VIP’ admission get “a personal photo opportunity (taken by us with your own camera/phone)”. A VIP ticket without the snap costs £149 at the same appearance.
An advert for the talks says former Bournemouth, West Ham and Portsmouth manager Harry “will be sharing insider stories, football anecdotes and plenty of laughs”. It also promises a Q&A session with one of football’s “most charismatic figures”.
Harry, who may return to the jungle in an all-star spin-off, is not the only famous name to charge for photos. Actors Danny Dyer and Sir David Jason have also previously asked fans to shell out extra for snaps.
Harry, known for his nifty moves in football transfers, stormed off a 2010 TV interview when reporter suggested he was a wheeler-dealer. He replied: “I’m not a wheeler and dealer – f*** off. I’m a f***ing football manager.”
Last month, Harry’s £5million mansion was targeted by burglars who stole wife Sandra’s jewellery.
