I’m a Celebrity is well under way with ten contestants already braving the Australian outback for their fourth night in the jungle. While Irish DJ and BBC radio host Dean McCullough “disappointed” Ant and Dec in a Bushtucker Trial earlier this week, GK Barry shocked fans with her “amazing” performance . The pair faced another challenge on Wednesday (20 November), as they completed “Drown in the Dumps” to secure yellow stars for their campmates.
And to mix things up even more, two late arrivals surprised the camp on the show’s latest episode. After lots of rumours and speculation, Love Island star Maura Higgins was confirmed as a late entry into the jungle. “I have no clue what time it is, I don’t know where I am,” she said in an interview with The Mirror .
“In fact, I’ve done the opposite of preparing myself [for the jungle]. I’ve tried not to think about it, because when I think about it, I get so much anxiety.” She would be the second Islander, after Olivia Atwood, to appear on the show.
“I just don’t want to let people down, because everyone’s been DMing me, saying ‘Oh my God, I hope you’re doing the show,” she said. “I don’t want to back out of the trials and be the biggest wimp in the camp.” Writer and broadcaster Reverend Richard Coles joined Higgins on tonight’s episode.
Coles rose to prominence for being part of the 1980s band The Communards. He took an interest in religion in his twenties, after the deaths of friends .
