AN I’m A Celebrity legend has hinted that he is being lined up for a stint on the Strictly Come Dancing dancefloor after turning down another major show.
Boxer , 38, caused a stir when he took up camp Down Under for I’m A Celebrity in 2017.



The star, who banked £400,000 for his first stint, later returned for the show’s first ever All Stars edition in South Africa in 2023.
Now, the boxing hunk has confessed that he has his eyes on more TV shows in the future but he’s already had to turn some down due to his busy schedule.
Confessing that he was considering learning how to dance for the BBC, Amir said: “I have been asked to do so maybe I would do that.”
But it is bad news for another BBC show as the boxing pro confirmed that he’d turned down under-fire after being unable to commit to the filming.
The programme has been in the spotlight after both its hosts and were forced out of the programme following findings in an investigation - first sparked amid allegations of inappropriate behaviour from host Gregg during his time on the programme.
Amir added: “I have been asked to do Celebrity recently, but I couldn’t do the filming this year.
“There are a lot of shows but it’s hard to get the time. At the same time, I like doing shows.”
Amir starred in his own reality series, Big in Bolton, on the BBC alongside his wife Faryal and has now revealed that he is a big fan of starring on such programmes for a key reason.
He said: “People get to see the real side of me and who you are. Let’s see what happens but I am always down for doing things but only the top shows.
“I’ve done a lot of the top shows like I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here twice and in my opinion it’s the biggest show out there, it is massive.”
Amir married his wife Faryal in in 2013 before returning to Bolton for a traditional Islamic wedding in front of a reported 4000 guests.
The couple share two daughters together.
However, their marriage has been plagued by split rumours - including a brief period where they called it quits in 2017
Last year, Amir spent more than £130,000 on a newG Wagon for his long-suffering wife after
The couple were reportedly “on the rocks” following a sexting scandal which saw the formerchamp meet a woman for hotel sex over a period of four months.
He had demanded “no holds barred” sex from the woman last year before the fling escalated.
His wife found out about the betrayal before calling the woman and threatening to out her.
