All the latest news from the I’m A Celeb jungle
The I’m A Celeb star’s surprised everyone – including her husband
She entered the jungle all guns blazing, promising to prove she’s no “pushover”. And so far, Jacqueline Jossa’s risen to the challenge, standing her ground with her fellow campmates and facing some of her biggest fears – including having her head encased in a helmet full of spiders. And it’s safe to say that no one’s been more surprised than husband Dan Osborne, who’s only ever known his wife to bolt at the sight of a creepy crawly. Speaking to heat, Dan – who shares Ella, four, and one-year-old Mia with
Jac – talks manning the fort at home, cheering her on from the other side of the world, and how they deal with rumours that he’s cheating…
Has Jacqueline surprised you? She really has. But I know how determined she is – when she wants something, she gets it. She’s really shown that – the spiders in the helmet challenge was a massive deal for her. Have the kids watched any episodes? They haven’t seen any of it yet, because they’re obviously in bed. They just think Mummy has gone to work. I don’t want to show them clips of Mummy being scared. How’s daddy-duty going at home? It’s what I do when she’s working, anyway, so it’s not really any different. She’s just not coming home at the end of the day. We are very good at sharing the duties when we are working. I have discovered that I can’t stand an untidy utility room, though.
You went on a night out at a charity do last week and were immediately slammed for chatting to other women – how do you deal with the scrutiny? I went to a charity ball with my management team, but I get criticised whatever I do. Pictures get taken, even when you can’t see my manager standing right next to me when I’m talking to people. It gets a bit boring, to be honest, and everyone around me knows the truth – that’s all that matters. Jacqueline said she hates spiders – are you in charge of removing them at home? Well, I’ve always been the one to deal with the spiders, but I think it’s safe to say that, after that helmet challenge, she can definitely help out with the spiders in the house. Is she an argumentative person? Only when she’s hangry. ■
