Who is Owen Warner in I’m a Celebrity? Hollyoaks actor in profile

I’m a star 2022 is here – and the series has returned to Australia for the first time in three years.

Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly are back hosts of the annual reality series, which this year includes a musician, a DJ and a disgraced politician as part of its cast.

One such celebrity taking part in the series is Owen Warner – but who is he?

Warner is an English actor best known for his role as Romeo Nightingale Hollyoaks.

The 32-year-old first joined the soap opera in 2018 and has found himself at the center of several major storylines.

Warner, who is from Leicester, is said to be a friend of i am a celebrity after previously appearing on a discussion show I’m a Celebrity: Extra Campwhich is broadcast several times on ITV2.

Shortly after being announced as a candidate, Warner became one of the early favorites to win.

Of his decision to sign on, he told ITV: “I’m looking forward to people getting to know me as a person and not a character. People are so used to me reciting lines written for me and most of them are not what I would say myself.

He continued, “And now it’s getting closer, I want to enjoy everything about it. I have told all my friends to vote for me because I will feel like I wasted it if I don’t take the exams. The exams are part of the i am a celebrity Experience. Going to Australia is great, the OG format.”

Warner admitted that his main concern about entering the jungle was that he wouldn’t be able to “get his hair cut twice a week,” which he’s currently doing for his role.

“I think not having them is going to be the biggest test,” he said, adding, “I might come out and look like another geezer!”

Warner had relationships with former Hollyoaks co-star Stephanie Davis, who played Sinead O’Connor, George Shore Star Chloe Ferry and The Apprentice Candidate Camilla Ainsworth.
