Hubert Fella, a well-known German reality TV star from Hammelburg, is set to participate in the 2026 season of RTL's 'I'm a Star - Get Me Out of Here!', marking his debut in the popular jungle survival show. The new season begins on January 23, 2026, and Fella expresses high enthusiasm, stating, 'The jungle is a great honor. You can't achieve more.' Fella is recognized for his appearances in various VOX reality shows and his partnership with his husband Matthias Mangiapane, who previously competed in the show's 12th season in 2018, finishing fifth. Inspired by his husband's experience, Fella aims to outperform him and reach the final, viewing the jungle as the pinnacle of reality TV achievement. Fella lives with Type 1 diabetes, an incurable autoimmune disease requiring lifelong blood sugar management. Despite the physical and mental stress associated with the show's extreme conditions—such as hunger, physical challenges, and sleep deprivation—medical expert Professor Dr. med. Thomas Haak has expressed confidence in the advancements of modern diabetology, wishing Fella success and hoping he becomes the jungle king to demonstrate that nearly everything is possible with current medical care. Fella's participation highlights the potential for individuals with chronic conditions to undertake demanding challenges, showcasing the progress in diabetes treatment. The show’s focus on health and endurance, combined with Fella's personal story, underscores themes of resilience and medical progress.
