Gemma Atkinson has addressed speculation regarding her involvement in the upcoming celebrity version of Gladiators. In response to a fan’s inquiry on Instagram, Atkinson denied any official discussions. She expressed her childhood love for the original show and her appreciation for its revival, but emphasized that she has not been contacted about participating in the celebrity edition.
The Mirror had previously reported that Atkinson had expressed interest in joining the celebrity lineup and had instructed her team to reach out to producers at the BBC. However, Atkinson has now clarified that this information was inaccurate.
Atkinson’s denial comes amidst rumors and ongoing talks about a potential celebrity special of Gladiators. The show’s producer, Dan Baldwin, has indicated that the team is open to bringing back successful shows like Gladiators. With the second season of the rebooted Gladiators already in the works, fans can anticipate further developments regarding the celebrity edition.
