She said: “I wouldn’t have expected her to sign up.
“But I think sometimes you hit a point in life where you’re like, ‘I’ll just try something and push myself out of my comfort zone’ and I think she will get quite a lot out of it.”
She went on to say that she thought she was doing “great” on the ITV reality show.
She continued: “I think she’s doing great, it’s not easy. I think she had one of the worst ones as well to hold cockroaches, you’d worry if they were going to go down your throat.
“I thought she did amazing, she’s quite a strong character and she put mind over matter, she did really well.”
I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here airs on ITV at 9pm.
