Meanwhile, the whole nation might be desperate to see Im A Celebrity back on our telly screens, but it turns out theres a few things Holly isnt looking forward to.
“One is the eating challenge”, she said.
“Even if you just ate chocolate and opened your mouth to show me right now I wouldnt like it. The fact youve eaten a body part that youre not meant to, its going to be horrible.
“Im also not going to like the smells. Im not good with smells. And when they come out and theyve got stuff still on them.”
She then added, “What have I done?”
Ever supportive Phil the replied,”When you told me in secret over the summer I just couldnt believe my ears.”
Before joking, “In a country where everything eats you? Youll be fantastic.”
Well, we reckon Holly is going to be amazing!
