Ruth posted a video of her packing essentials and compressing her clothes for the trip. She has now shared on Instagram that she's started her long journey to Australia. Previous guests on the show include Coronation Street's Colson Smith, who was seen chatting with ITV2 show's hosts, Joel Dommett, Sam Thompson and Kemi Rodgers.
The 64-year-old TV star announced the end of her marriage to her former co-star Eamonn Holmes, 64, in May. The pair had been together for more than two decades and are parents to son Jack Holmes, 22, together.
The source said: "It's been a tough year for Ruth and she's been putting her best foot forward, she's thrilled to have been asked to appear on this the spin off show and fly to Australia ahead of Christmas."
They said she will be supporting Jane as well as offering her own opinions on the events in camp. "The production team are particularly excited they have landed Ruth to join them as they think she’ll be amazing and give the new format a boost," the source claimed.
Ruth's friend Jane faced a Bushtucker trial on Tuesday alongside Maura Higgins. It's something Jane's kids had said she had been waiting for ever since entering camp.
As they touched down in Australia, Jane's kids said: "She's wanted to a do a trial since the beginning. I think she's going to absolutely smash it."
However, revealing a trial with water would have been Jane's least favourite task, they said: "Probably something with water [would be the worst], which happens to be the one we've got her into, but she asked for it."
