And by the looks of the promo video, both Helen, 34, and Camilla, 27, are both taking their training very seriously.

They may look like butter wouldn’t melt from the outside, but wow to they pack a punch!

Helen is seen tossing over a huge tyre with as much ease as if it were a pancake and let’s just say, we would not want to be at the receiving end of Cam’s right hook.

Camilla and Helen are also seen practising sparring with a partner, doing cardio, and weight training.

During the YouTube promotion video, Camilla eagerly shouts, “Let’s do this!”, while Helen describes the upcoming challenge as “the ultimate test”.

Other brave celebrities stepping into the ring include The Saturday’s Vanessa White, who goes up against S Club 7’s Hannah Spearritt, and ex-footballer Wayne Bridge who will spar with Spencer Matthews.
