Harry Redknapp is one the most popular English football managers of all time.
The football legend won everyone's hearts by being crowned the King of the Jungle in the 2018 series of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, but what is he famous for and what teams has he managed in the past?
Here's all you need to know about Harry Redknapp:
Harry Redknapp is an English football manager, and is currently an advisor to Central Coast Mariners and a director at Wimborne Town.
He has previously managed Bournemouth, West Ham United, Portsmouth (twice), Southampton, Tottenham Hotspur, Queens Park Rangers and Birmingham City.
In his second era at Portsmouth, he won the 2008 FA Cup, and also took Tottenham into the UEFA Champions League.
In 2012, he was highly tipped to become the next England manager, but the role went to Roy Hodgson.
Harry is married to his longtime partner Sandra Redknapp. They met at a pub when he was just 17, and they married four years later in 1967.
Sandra was the subject of a bizarre incident in 2016, when Harry accidentally ran over her foot with his car.
“As I went to drive off, I drove over her ankle, basically," he said at the time. "She fell head first into the road. It has made a mess of her ankle.”
Harry Redknapp was born on March 2, 1947. He celebrated his 71st birthday in 2018.
He was born in Poplar, London, and was the only child of Henry Joseph William Redknapp (1922–1996) and Violet May Brown (1924–2001).
Harry and Sandra have two sons: Jamie Redknapp, the former Liverpool and England midfielder and now a football pundit, and Mark Redknapp, a model.
Jamie made his professional football debut under his father at Bournemouth in 1990.
Harry's grandson via his son Mark, also called Harry Redknapp, signed for Bournemouth in May 2014.
His nephew is former England midfielder Frank Lampard, whose parents are Sandra's late twin sister, Patricia, and Harry's former teammate Frank Lampard, Sr.
