'I always thought I wouldn’t do it'

The pair were revealed during yesterday's episode and will finally enter the Jungle tonight (Thursday, 20 November).

Vogue (40) said: "I always thought I wouldn’t do it, because I’ve gotten too comfortable in my life. I like to have eight hours of sleep, I like to eat nice things, I like to just chill out, and I never put myself out of my comfort zone.

"Then, when I turned 40, I started to get scared of ridiculous things. I didn’t want to be this person. Doing this is such a massive life experience, and it is not something you can pay to do.

"So now I am 40, I think it will be pretty cool to do I’m A Celebrity.

The Irish mam of three said she would miss her kids the most if she were to be sent into the jungle.

She added: "I’m very worried about missing the kids, as I have never been away this long before, and I spend such a huge amount of time with them. It will be my biggest struggle."

Read Wilson (39), who will enter the jungle alongside Vogue, was also a contestant on the fifth instalment of The Voice UK back in 2016.

Wilson said he was "feeling excited" about entering the jungle.

"My first thought when they approached me about taking part was abject terror. But I have got a very strict rule in life. If the only reason that you don’t want to do it is fear, you must do it, whatever it is," he said.

"I’m fearful as a porcupine, and I am very nervous that my grey cells won’t dance properly in camp, too. At home, I do a cryptic crossword every day, I always have a book on the go, and I am a bit worried that my frontal lobes will drop off if I don’t have a lubricant for it.

"I can be vague at times, and I don’t want to scatter brain cells over the camp."
