Oti Mabuse has spoken frankly about her decision to do I'm A Celebrity and what it might mean for her young family. It was a big decision to fly to Australia and be away from her baby for a whole month but she and husband Marius are keen to take it in their stride, with Oti also pointing out that mums also have goals. Strictly Come Dancing star Oti, 34, says: "I've always wanted to be a part of the show in some capacity, and I felt like right now, this year is the only year for me to do it, because I'll probably never do it again.
"I'll never get another opportunity to do it again. I'd love to grow my family. I'd like to do other things.
And so this was the year for me to do it, and it just felt right. "I would love to grow my family so let's see what happens. But in terms of being away from family, I probably won't be able to do that much longer.
" Referring to being apart for a few weeks, she adds: "My daughter won't remember it. It's just a couple of days. She's with a lot of family, and she's with my husband who is amazing, and she's in more than capable hands.
"I think it's nice for her to see that mum is fully committed and loves her so much. But also, mum wants to do what she wants to do. "You know, mum has goals as well, and I think it's something as mums, we can all kind of be proud of, that we can be these incredible human beings as well as accomplish things that we want or reach our goals or do things that are fun for us.
And when she grows up, and she'll Google me,.
