Dad is not being fake ...he’s kind, caring and always puts others first

bought us a bottle of champagne to celebrate on the roof. He was lovely, we had a drink and we left and there might have been a guitar there. He was a nice guy.

“I’m not gonna say anything bad about him, Mr Nick Knowles, he was lovely. But I don’t think it’s quite the Kum Ba Yah situation that everyone might have in their heads.

“I’m really sorry to shatter the illusion that we had a proper heavy jam with Nick Knowles because that did not happen. It’s a half-truth.”

In camp Nick has won praise from the other celebs for his DIY skills. In the Bush Telegraph he explained: “We managed to create a screen, weaved some palm for Harry to keep the smoke away from him.

“We built a tripod to dry our clothes and we built a washing line so we have already built a few things.”

However, Nick’s other son TJ also told how his dad wasn’t always a DIY king. He said: “Nick didn’t really make stuff for us as kids. There was one story from my brother who was living up in Chester and he was converting a loft. Dad was helping and he put his feet through the ceiling and fell straight through. It was a real life DIY SOS!”

Both TJ and Charles are now at the Versace hotel on the Gold Coast waiting for their dad to emerge.

Generously, Nick has vowed to share his fee amongst friends and family to “spread the love a bit more”.

Nick has also played down his status as a bit of a hunk, saying: “If you film any bloke for 10 days and edit it into 60 minutes, you can make them look really lovely and sexy. Possibly some of the interest is the fact I look like a bag of spanners on TV. “
