Princess and Junior Andre join Jeff Stelling, Ella Eyre and Sam Ryder for the ultimate adventure as Celebrity Race Across The World line-up is confirmed

Princess and Junior Andre have joined Jeff Stelling, Ella Eyre and Sam Ryder for the ultimate adventure as Celebrity Race Across The World line-up is confirmed.

The stars are set to travel together from Borneo across South East Asia in a bid to reach their final destination of Melbourne, Australia – first.

The children of Peter Andre and Katie Price took to Instagram to share a behind the scenes snap ahead of the hotly-anticipated fourth series of the BBC show. 

TV personality Princess, 19, looked stunning wearing her blonde locks natural as she pouted for the camera alongside Junior, 21, during the epic 7,500km (4,660 miles) journey. 

She penned: 'Finally… we are excited to announce that we are part of @raceacrosstheworld!!'

Sports broadcaster Jeff Stelling beamed alongside his son Matt on a beach as he revealed he was taking part in the adventure.

Elsewhere Brit singer-songwriter Ella Eyre and childhood friend Nana and singer Sam Ryder with his best friend and tour manager Kaz are also taking part. 

The celebrities will leave their phones, credit cards and home comforts behind for the journey of a lifetime

Setting off from the vibrant city of Kuching, in the Malaysian state of Sarawak in North West Borneo, and the gateway to the island's vast wilderness, these pairs will tackle the most formidable race yet. 

Traversing prehistoric jungles and the heartlands of Borneo, to reach five check points across three countries and two continents, ultimately aiming for the sunbaked southern tip of Australia and the finish line in Melbourne.

Leaving luxury behind them, the stars will be tested; emotions will run high, and relationships will be transformed on an adventure as challenging as it is rewarding.

The teams will need to rely on their own resourcefulness, local transport, and the kindness of strangers to make it further into the race, equipped with only a map and a budget of just £26 per person a day.

Tim Harcourt, Chief Creative Officer, Studio Lambert, says: 'This year's pairs navigate a journey that lays bare two extremes of today's world. We can't wait to share how they get on. 

'Contestants give unfiltered and honest reactions to the experiences they face that are as demanding as they are joyful. 

'That's so rare on television and it's clear audiences love seeing their favourite stars deal with these daring challenges in spectacular worlds.'

Jasmyn McGuile, Commissioning Editor, BBC Factual Entertainment and Events, says: 'Audiences have been asking when the Race might reach Australia, so we are delighted that they will be able to experience this unique journey for the first time in Celebrity Race Across the World. 

'With an adventurous start in Borneo's Sarawak rainforest, another series first, it makes for an unmissable opener for this year's celebrity teams.'

In the last three series of the hit show, Alex Beresford and Noel Beresford, Scott Mills and Sam Vaughan, Roman Kemp and Harleymoon Kemp were all crowned winners. 

The new series will air this autumn and Race Across The World will return to BBC One and iPlayer next Spring.
