I’m A Celebrity star Ruby Wax has not one, but two nepo-baby daughters who boast successful careers in showbusiness just like their mother.
The American-British comedy icon, 72, has joined the line-up as the ITV series is set to return on screens this Sunday.
Ruby’s daughters Maddy, 35, and Marina, 32, are quite familiar faces who appeared on huge TV shows, following into her mother’s footsteps.
The Girls On Top legend shares her daughters and son Max with husband Ed Bye, whom she married in 1988.
Proving the apple didn’t fall far from the tree, Maddy and Marina also have their own comedy podcast called Siblings Comedy.
Eldest daughter Maddy also manages the PR side of the podcast and additionally, she is a comedy producer at Impatient Productions, an award-winning boutique producer of radio, podcasts, live & online comedy.

Marina cemented her status as a successful actress after playing Pandora Henry in Prime Video’s The Girlfriend, where she stars alongside House of the Dragon star Olivia Cooke and American star Robin Wright.
She has also appeared on Wonka, Hulu’s We Were The Lucky Ones, and Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy.
Maddy also acted in the show Coming Of Age, and Pulped: Bad Tech, as well as a smaller role in the short film Quiet Life.
Proudly speaking about her kids in 2017, Ruby told The Guardian: ‘Maddy is a comedian and Marina is an actress.
‘Maddy and Marina have just started a comedy show called Siblings. If they weren’t funny I wouldn’t encourage them but they are.
‘When they are all round for dinner they make [brother] Max laugh so much he cries.’
It comes as fellow IAC contestant Kelly Brook has recently revealed her biggest fear about entering the I’m A Celebrity jungle – and it has nothing to do with Bushtucker Trials.
And now viewers were left particularly pleased to learn Maddy, 35, and Marina, 32, are quite familiar faces who appeared on huge TV shows, following into her mother’s footsteps

And now Kelly, 45, who once swore she’d never sign up for the show until being inspired by her husband Jeremy Parisi, admitted that the thought of going without food is already playing on her mind.
She told her Heart Radio co-host Jason King that hunger could push her over the edge, confessing: ‘I think the hunger really gets to you. I’m just not myself when I’m hungry.’
Laughing, Jason teased her: ‘You’re like that at five-fifty in the evening – and you can’t just Deliveroo in there!’
Food is notoriously scarce in camp, with contestants surviving mainly on small portions of beans and rice unless they win stars in the trials.
Former campmate James Haskell previously described the experience as ‘starvation,’ revealing he struggled to even get out of bed from exhaustion.
But while hunger worries her, Kelly admitted another major fear still lingers – the giant ‘unpredictable’ spiders.
‘You don’t know where they’re going to jump around’ she said before adding another fear to the list: ‘And also just not being able to wash.’
